青春版《牡丹亭》紐約;訪談、講座、公演

 青春版《牡丹亭》;紐約;訪談、講座、公演;   

 (For the English version of this announcement, please visit  http://www.chinainstitute.org/art-culture/programs-events/performing-arts/.)

由著名作家白先勇主持制作、蜚聲中外的青春版昆曲《牡丹亭》，將于十月七日;在;紐約演出精華部分。主辦單位爲亞太藝術中心和華美人文學會。; 

 

在中國戲劇史上，《牡丹亭》是一經典劇目。但由於劇中主角在外形、嗓音及其內心感情表演上對演員的要求甚高，極少數演員能將《牡丹亭》演得形神並茂。而白先勇的青春版就達到這最高境界，他選的演員不僅形美、舞蹈動作如詩如畫，也更深入角色的內心，惟妙惟肖地演出他們心中的愛與怨、悲和歡。也就是因為這些難能可貴的因素和條件，青春版《牡丹亭》在中國大陸、港台、歐洲和美國西岸做了百餘場演出。所到之處，可謂萬人空巷，有口皆碑。十月七日此劇在紐約的公演是在美東首次演出，也是唯一上演的一場。熱愛中國文化、喜愛崑曲的人士不可不看。關於演出地點和購票詳情，請訪;http://chineselectures.org/peony.html。;

主辦單位亞太藝術中心和華美人文學會爲配合這場演出，增加觀衆對《青春版牡丹亭》制作經過和主要演員的進一步了解，在演出前將舉辦兩場專題活動：; 

 

一．;10月;6日（星期六）于紐約大學舉辦訪談活動，由華美人文學會共同主席汪班訪談著名學者兼制作人白先勇及《牡丹亭》中扮演杜麗娘與柳夢梅的名演員沈丰英和俞玖林，並由兩位明星;為聽眾做示範表演並分享他們的表演心得。紐約大學的漢語教師發展中心是此次活動的協辦單位。;

 

二．;10月;7日華美人文學會共同主席汪班於亨特學院左近的華美協進社爲持票觀衆用英語舉行一場有關; 《牡丹亭》; 的專題講座。; 

 

以上兩場活動的詳情;請見 http://chineselectures.org/peony.html
