Bai Jugang: At the beginning of the musical, I am ready
Rock microphone player, all-round singer-songwriter Bai Jugang, under the appearance of sunshine and youthfulness, it is a contrasting "subwoofer" and "rock voice". His typhoon is full of super explosive power and infectiousness, and many fans said that they were powdered in situ at the scene!
In the recent blockbuster variety show "Brother With Thorns", he brought his newly arranged rock version of "Rose Rose I Love You" to the stage, and the initial stage Weibo topic was read nearly 100 million times and discussed 100,000+. Ignite the whole audience and just give him time for a song.
In the eight years since his debut, Bai Jugang has transformed into a mature music singer-songwriter, including lyrics, composition, production, arrangement, and performance. He did his best to feel "alive", turning those stories, emotions, and attitudes into notes and writing songs. Each musical work reveals his standards for music and conveys his attitude towards life.
The casting of the dyeing space will have round after round of in-depth communication with the actors. Not only does it require a fit in appearance and strength, but more importantly, the actor's understanding of the role can resonate with the soul of the character.
It is understood that Bai Jugang "loves and fears" the novel "Human Disqualification". He read the original book many times, saying: "Whenever I see the ending, I will put the book together, and I will feel afraid to read the end of the book, I think it may be because I like this book, I will be like this." 」 He confessed that he had been in a state for a while, like the song "Trap" that he wrote himself: "You want to breathe on the surface and want to catch your breath / You just rely on strength to bear the past..." He said that he felt that the song was somewhat similar to the feeling conveyed by the novel "Human Disqualification".
Starring in the musical "Human Disqualification", Bai Jugang carefully considered it for a long time. In the process of communicating with the playwright, he has always paid great attention to the script and the music itself. The reverence and yearning for the musical stage made him determined to play the soul role that resonated with him on the musical stage: "I care about every line and every note of this play." For the next four months of rehearsals, I'll burn myself for the show. ”
Liu Lingfei: There are also surging and indifferent contradictions in my heart
Liu Lingfei may be one of the actors with the most works in the domestic musical theater circle.
As a veteran actor in the Chinese musical theater industry, he has starred in countless male number ones: Ryoji Kirihara, who traveled between good and sin in the original musical "White Night" in Chinese, Jack and Hyde in the Chinese version of the classic "Wild Horn" "Becoming a Strange Doctor", the wild rock cat in the Chinese version of the classic Broadway musical "Cat"...
Liu Lingfei, who has "a thousand faces" on the stage, in addition to the most important identity of a musical actor, is also a director, singer-songwriter and independent designer. No matter how his identity changes, Liu Lingfei always shows himself with his trademark long hair. On the poster for the first time, Liu Lingfei appeared in a neat inch shape, which is said to be more than twenty years since he last cut such a short hairstyle.
Liu Lingfei, who has countless stage works, has performed many kinds of "life", and in the face of this performance of "Human Disqualification", he said: "I can feel that there is a community of two contradictions in my heart at the same time, surging and indifferent, which is a special feeling. It filled me with unparalleled creativity and wanted to create it. ”
If it is relatively easy to express the emotions of external release, then the introverted emotions and inner turbulence in this work put forward very high requirements for the actors to pay attention to details: the meaning of every lyric, the change of every note, every beginning and turn, every emotional design... In order to better interpret the character of "even touching cotton will hurt", "I will also pull out the infrequent self in the middle of the night and talk to him." Liu Lingfei showed an extremely delicate and sensitive side, "I want to express an emotion as light as a feather and as strong as late at night." ”
The visual blockbuster of the musical "Human Disqualification" was released in a stunning way
From the infinite imagination of the people in the book to the ultimate aesthetic in front of the camera, in the visual blockbuster of the "Human Disqualification" musical series released yesterday, everything seems to have been given life.
"Human Disqualification" is a semi-autobiographical novel by the literary hero Dazai Osamu, in which the story and experience of the protagonist, Ōto-yōyō Yezo, are almost all based on the author's own life. It can be said that Dazaiji is the creator of Theato Yezang, and Yezang is a doppelganger of the Dazaiji literary world, so in the main poster, the two people's bodies are full of their own lives, one stroke at a time, each other's souls are infiltrated, and a common heart beats in the chest cavity of the two.
If the main poster is an accurate capture of the core of musical theater, then the other two creative blockbusters are the creative presentation of the elements of the original: the strong red is a strong color impact, but also creates a strong and strange sense of atmosphere; underwater and on the water, indulgence and breathing, is their struggle in their own lives, but also the projection of the relationship between the two.
With the leading actors of powerful actors, professional creations under international standards, and such a huge production volume of the grand theater, four months of rehearsal-like rehearsal cycle, this will surely be the most anticipated and topical hot play in 2021.
At the same time as the protagonist was announced yesterday, some early bird tickets also opened a preferential pre-order, and now tickets can be purchased through the official website of the Shanghai Grand Theatre, Barley, and Maoyan!
From December 10-19, 2021 to the Shanghai Grand Theatre, this world-class production of Chinese original musical "Human Disqualification" is about to usher in its premiere, let us look forward to whether it will create a new height and eye-catching results!
