Experimental Theatre of Liyuan Opera of Fujian Excerpts From “Chen San and Wuniang”
Xiqu
Chinese Opera Festival 2014
Description
Description
This is a classic in the traditional repertory of the Xiaoliyuan stream. The libretto was already in print and widely circulated as early as the Ming Dynasty, i.e., during the reign of Jiajing (1522-1566). The music is engaging, and the acting is sensitively rendered. Among the excerpts, Ennui was passed down by Cai Xiuying, a famous instructor of the ‘Seven Role Types’ troupes in Liyuan Opera. The playlet is a showcase of the many unique characteristics of dan roles in Liyuan Opera, and is regarded as a dan actor’s pièce de résistance.
