"The Wilderness" is a classic masterpiece by Mr. Cao Yu, the most outstanding drama master in the history of modern Chinese literature. Through a tragic story of revenge fate, it profoundly shows the writer's confusion about the "dilemma of life" and his philosophical thinking on the mysterious universe.
Directed by He Nian, director of Shanghai Dramatic Arts Center, the modern version of "The Wilderness" has given the classic a new charm with a new concept and form. The performance has been well received so far.
【New Interpretation】
Mr. Cao Yu also said to future generations to rehearse his works, "Professional theater troupes, the rehearsal of "Thunderstorm" will succeed, the rehearsal of "Sunrise" will succeed, but the rehearsal of "Wilderness" may fail." "It can be seen how difficult the rehearsal of "The Wilderness" is.
In order to let a classic work once again gain the attention of people in the new era, so that the aesthetic taste of the work can be in line with the current new generation of audiences, the new tricks of the on-talk version of "Wilderness" are frequent. In terms of narrative structure, it breaks the traditional linear narrative method and boldly adopts three-stage reincarnation; on the stage set, it adds expressionist treatment to the realistic reality scene, coloring the stage with lighting; in the stage presentation, it integrates the concept of some dance theater and body drama, and deeply analyzes and shows the interlacing of time and space and the complexity of the character's personality.
