Yangtze River Daily Wuhan Client News (reporter Wan Xuming correspondent Zhou Yuanyuan) "If the father is here, he will be very happy. On October 14, the crew of "Thunderstorm" and "After Thunderstorm" held a sharing meeting at the Qintai Grand Theater, and this "Liantai Opera" will be staged on the 16th and 17th, opening the fifth Qintai Arts Festival and opening the first stop of its second round of tour in Wuhan. Facing the Wuhan audience, Cao Yu's daughter and playwright Wan Fang said: "This time his play is back to his hometown to perform. ”

"This time, 'Thunderstorm' is home"

In 1934, Cao Yu's "Thunderstorm" came out and became a landmark masterpiece of modern Chinese drama. More than 80 years later, Cao Yu's daughter Wan Fang wrote the drama for the first time, creating "Thunderstorm After" and forming a "liantai drama" with her father's works.

"Thunderstorm" originally had a "prologue" and "epilogue" that were placed at the beginning and end, and echoed from afar, describing what happened more than ten years after the story. The story of "After Thunderstorm" takes place more than 10 years after "Thunderstorm", and is from the perspective of three surviving elderly people, Zhou Puyuan, Xuan Yi and Shi Ping.

In Wanfang's view, "Thunderstorm" and "After Thunderstorm" form a time and space tunnel, connecting not only father and daughter. "'Thunderstorm' has influenced for more than 80 years and has been staged all over the world. This time, in the new form of 'liantai drama', French director Eric La Cascasard was invited to direct, and He Saifei, Tong Ruimin, Liu Kaiwei, Kong Wei and other co-stars, connecting more than 80 years ago with today, East and West. ”

The second round of the repertoire will start in Wuhan, Wan Fang said: "My father was born in Tianjin, but his place of origin is Qianjiang, Hubei, and this time his play is back to his hometown to perform." If my father was there, he would be very happy. ”

Liu Kaiwei debuted in a drama to challenge the role of "national level"

In the cast list of "Thunderstorm", Liu Kaiwei is very eye-catching, this is his first time to appear in a drama, and it is in the "national" repertoire of "Thunderstorm" that he plays an important role of Zhou Ping.

At the sharing meeting in Wuhan, Liu Kaiwei frankly said: "At the beginning, I was very nervous, I knew a little about the role of "Thunderstorm" and Zhou Ping, and in every rehearsal and performance, I had a deeper understanding and feeling for this character. From film and television dramas to drama stages, everything has to start from scratch, "the feeling of performance should be re-learned, especially the grasp of space and power, including my own lines."

The second round of the tour was about to begin, and his nervousness became expectation. The actors on the same stage praised him, and Tong Ruimin, played by Zhou Puyuan and former head of the acting department of the Shanghai Theater Academy, revealed: "Liu Kaiwei and I play father and son in the play, and in some scenes, the audience may not be able to see clearly, but I am face to face with him, and I can see the communication of hearts in my eyes." ”

Kong Wei "new solution" Toni, she was more and more distressed

In "Thunderstorm", several female characters have complex emotions and personalities, and the actors who play them are also quite powerful. Among them, Lu Shuping is played by He Saifei, and Si Feng is played by Lu Xingchen.

Kong Wei, who plays XuanYi, bluntly said that "this is the role that all Chinese actresses dream of." She also wrote a biography of the character: "She gathered all the entanglements and struggles of women, and she came to this family with pride, impulsiveness and rebellion, so in the face of Zhou Puyuan's control, she would feel that it should not be so." In her opinion, what Xuan Yi wants is very simple, but it is a "love" word, "Her lifelong pursuit is only love and freedom, but she is trapped in a cage all her life, and I especially feel sorry for her." Kong Wei also revealed: "If "Thunderstorm" makes me feel sad, "After Thunderstorm" makes me feel more sorry for her. ”
