How to evaluate Zhuang Yi's play Shan Jutu?

The summer breeze has just blown, and the drama "Shan Jutu", produced by China Taiwan Province Theatre and directed by Zhuang Yi, is staged in Beijing 9 Theater. Shan Jutu appeared in Wuzhen Drama Festival last year and was well received. This appearance on the Beijing stage was praised by the media as "the most beautiful repertoire of the 20 15 Cross-Strait Small Theater Art Festival", which attracted the attention of audiences inside and outside the theater industry.

Shan Jutu consists of two seemingly unrelated stories, and the plot is constantly pushed down and repeated. This "postmodern" model combines suspense, banter and other elements. The white-toned stage, simple tables and chairs, clothes hangers, pianos, curtains ... At the beginning of the plot, the word "mountain residence" written on the white sand dust looks a little quiet and quiet under the illumination of the lights.

The first story of "Shan Jutu" takes place in Shanghai during the "isolated island" period, and the plot revolves around the murder of the great traitor Li Shiqun. People who are a little familiar with this history can easily guess that the heroine of Guan Yu's Shadow About Lou is a beautiful woman writer, which is related to the military, but not Guan Lu's "red spy" status.

For the new generation in Taiwan Province Province, "postmodernism" deconstructs everything and doubts everything. Therefore, the process of assassinating Li Shiqun is inconsistent with historical facts, and "banter" and "game" are used. When Guan and the "Second Young Master" talked and laughed in the cinema and talked about the whole assassination plan, the whole assassination process was presented in an exaggerated cartoon way with the voice of Italian coloratura. What I think is that so many national heroes devoted themselves to the torrent of the war of resistance in order to save the country and the people, but later people imitated their heroic behavior in a gamification way. How sad and silent!

The real Guan Yu lived in people's misunderstanding for a long time, but it was unfortunate later. 1949 was implicated in the Pan Hannian case and was wronged several times. In the 1980s, Guan Lu committed suicide after being rehabilitated. The love between Guan Lu and Wang Bingnan is also a great tragedy. A revolutionary couple who could have been married once swore that "you care about me for a while, and I care about you for a lifetime", but due to historical problems in Guanju, Lao Yan parted ways.

The second story of Shan Jutu is transferred to Luojiashan in contemporary Wuhan. A couple of writers who came from afar to attend the pen meeting and a beautiful young romantic novelist got together because of the sound of the piano. At the suggestion of his wife, the three of them seem to be related to the first story in their own style-suspense, romance, humor and storyline ... that is piano and Wushan sex. ...

Showing the second story, many techniques of commercial drama are used on the stage, either scary, scary or funny. The audience felt the subtle relationship between the three protagonists early in the morning, and the "Little Three" challenged the "first room"

The man dodged left and right, trying to get away with it. The story is "upside down" in the toss.

In my own mystery novel, my wife poisoned her husband and mistress with the flower of Wushan sex ... This result, in my opinion, is too cruel. If she really can't stand her husband's betrayal, the wife can divorce, but she can't break the law.

When I watched Taiwan Province Opera more than 20 years ago, I felt very uncomfortable with its form and style and the strong accent of the actors in Minnan. With the deepening of cross-strait exchanges in the past 20 years, this time, watch Shan Jutu.

I feel that the integrity of the script has made full progress compared with the standard level of the actor's Putonghua 20 years ago. To some extent, the young dramatists on both sides of the Taiwan Strait are basically similar in controlling the stage rhythm, examining history and examining human nature. This is a "postmodern" generation, and it is also a generation that dispels traditional "games".
