周六去看了新音乐剧 "Because of Winn Dixie", 非常有趣,边看边笑边思考,看完回味无穷。
改编自书,作曲轻快作词机智。由一条两岁半的大毛狗领衔主演,一眼见它从侧面跑进舞台全场就立刻充满了fun,touching!!
”10-year-old India Opal Buloni has just moved to the small town of Naomi, Florida with her father, a preacher.While in the Winn-Dixie supermarket, she encounters a scruffy dog and names it Winn-Dixie. Winn-Dixie
becomes friends with everyone he encounters, and so she makes some new
friends in the process. She also rekindles her relationship with her
father, and learns ten things about her mother, who abandoned them seven
years ago. Opal describes the preacher as an old turtle, always
sticking his head into his turtle shell and never wanting to come out
into the real world. This is most likely because of how sad he is about
her mother, with whom he is still in love.
One of the people Opal meets is Miss Franny Block, a kind and
somewhat eccentric elder librarian, who tells her many great stories,
including one involving a bear. Opal also meets Gloria Dump, a blind
recovering alcoholic with a tree in her backyard that has beer bottles
hanging from it. She calls it a 'mistake tree' and the bottles represent
the ghosts of all the things she has done wrong.”
现场灯光和音乐相当出彩,尤其那个牧师父亲的扮演者嗓音特别有磁性。他的独白对白独唱在容纳几百名观众的海螺形剧场里字字清晰,演员们的面部肢体表演栩栩如生。整台剧作精致有序,精彩幽默的台词被十几名老中青小年龄的演员们演绎得淋漓尽致。
90分钟的演出一气呵成,坐在场中的我们被深深带入剧中世界,心中的悲欢苦乐如醇酒慢尝,是一次绝妙的视听享受!
喜欢里面那个被邻居看作“女巫” 的前酗酒黑女士,她嗓门浑厚躯体有力,讲述和吟唱的张力十足:她偷过警车,偷过商品,喝过很多酒犯过很多错误,清醒时候便把过往写进酒瓶挂在院子里的大树上: 那些闪闪亮的瓶子从天而降得万千神秘,一如从前扑朔迷离的尘封记忆。。。
剧中每个家庭都有隐藏伤口,每个人都有看得见的缺点,而人和人之间是不可避免的隔膜,误解,冲突和交流。最具意义的是,你会发现和剧中的人们一样,能救真正赎自我的不是宗教仪式的祷告或书本逃避的清高,而只是简单抱抱那只毛茸茸大狗之后你便知道你我都需要:友谊,相互依偎的取暖,求同存异的宽容可以打开心扉,接受现实,拥抱当下,活着更美好。
午后四时当我随人流缓缓走出,迎来烈日当头,突然很想去听一场郭德刚的现场演出,必定很有趣的。
