At 6:30 p.m. last Thursday, haidian theater, there was still an hour before the performance.
Du Xiaoyu, who had already changed his costume, came to the stage as usual to debug the sound. He was the only actor on stage, and the workers were checking the stage props, and various lights were dangling around, while playing background music from Dutch's escape from prison.
Busy sneaking around, Du Xiaoyu, who had finished trying the sound, sat down and talked to us about "The Thief Wants you" and his character- Du Qi.
"We changed one of the plots." When talking about the performance of the play "The Thief Wants to Get You", Du Xiaoyu was very serious and repeatedly stressed to us, "Du Qi now is not the same as the previous version. ”
Dutch seems to be just a simple villain, but he is very soft at heart, he gives Kelly the only trust in the world, although he is always helpless to Bucky, but still regards him as the only brother, in a way, he is very much like his true character.
——Happy Twist Meritorious Actor Du Xiaoyu
Another year-end drama, another praise. The happy twist hilarious New Year stage play "Thief Wants to Get You" has been performed 50 times so far, and Du Xiaoyu is more and more excited the more he performs.
From the original "Crazy Stone" to today's "Thief Wants to Get You", on and off the stage, for more than ten years, drama has become the most important part of Du Xiaoyu's life. Du Xiaoyu has always believed that a role cannot be played at all and has no soul if it has not been dug deeply; if a stage is not taken seriously, it will be ashamed to spend money to buy tickets to watch the audience.
Serious about the role, responsible for the audience, just like Du Xiaoyu's WeChat name - "In the Wild Drama Bone", deep ploughing the drama stage, acting for excellence. The audience loves to call Du Xiaoyu a superstar on the twist stage play, but it is better to say that he is a super "drama idiot" on the stage play.

The human heart is rich and colorful, and the study of characters is itself an interesting thing.
One of the big differences between drama and film and television is that in the drama stage, a role needs to be performed in a loop, and each time is different from the last time. As the number of shows increases, it is inevitable that there will be a feeling of tiredness. But a good role is one that needs to be constantly polished, dug deep, improved, and researched. Overcoming tiredness and treating each performance as a new interpretation of the character.
A good script and good roles will make the actor more and more cool, and the baggage will be more and more shaken.
"Even though we've been doing 50 shows of 'Thief Wants You', after each show, we're going to review, discuss, and revise the details. In order to make the character of Dutch more vivid, more like a real-life character, and not only exist in the script, we modified one of the scenes to make Dutch bad not so pure, and show the good side of the character's heart to everyone. ”
When it comes to the role of "Du Qi", Du Xiaoyu becomes gushing. Other young actors often say that the most tired person in the whole play is definitely Xiao Yuge, after all, the age has arrived, there are so many scenes, and each scene still has to hang Weia.
Du Xiaoyu's answer to this is:
"Well, Wia may be a little different, but not tired."
When we saw this comment, we really understood.
The staff around Du Xiaoyu revealed that no matter when the work is over, Xiao Yuge will run 5 kilometers every day without moving, just to reserve physical fitness for "The Thief Wants to Get You".
Only by paying attention to living habits can we be responsible for the stage and the audience.

If you count the roles I have played in Happy Twist, that is too much, and I can tell you about the roles I have not played.
Du Xiaoyu, as a happy twist meritorious actor who has performed for more than ten years, has created many classic stage roles, such as Dean Yu Mancang of "Jianghu Academy", President Qiu Tian, the villain in "The Earl of Wulongshan", Teacher Wang in "Charlotte Troubles", Mike in "Prisoner Friends", Bruce in "Two-dimensional Code Killer", Minister Willie in "More Than Bright Moonlight in front of the Window", etc., he used his rich life experience to interpret the diverse lives on the stage.
Not only the "ex-husband brother" of the Spring Festival Gala, but also the superstar on the stage
Among the many characters, Du Xiaoyu's favorite is Yu Mancang, the dean of "Jianghu Academy", in his words, "He is a bad person, but the bad has a bottom line, and I can feel the temperature of this character." ”
And for Du Qi in "The Thief Wants you", he is still improving, polishing, and transforming this character, hoping to tap more of the character's inner kindness and show a warmer character for everyone, because he believes that "there are no bad people in this world." ”
Whether it is a decent person or a villain, goodness is the essence of this world.

All the praise is the respect of the audience for me, and it is my respect for the audience to perform every performance carefully, and it is also my duty.
Du Xiaoyu starred in the happy twist hilarious New Year stage drama "Thief wants to get you" has been performed for more than a month, the scene is full at the same time, the audience's evaluation is also very high, casually look at the audience's praise message, we found a lot of repeated three words - Du Xiaoyu.
Some viewers even said, "Du Qi was played by Xiao Yuge, and I was actually a little scared when I watched the play." ”
In the face of so much appreciation, Du Xiaoyu only said three words, "Don't dare to be." ”
"I didn't even think that this role was played to the extreme by me, and I was still in the process of exploring, hoping to gradually improve him."
Praise and praise are only temporary, and the solid and natural performance skills and the serious attitude towards the opposite corner of the play are eternal.
Du Xiaoyu, who became famous in the Spring Festival Gala and won the title of "ex-husband brother", is now using his strength to get rid of the label and create a classic with hard work, not only the "ex-husband brother" of the Spring Festival Gala, but also the actor Du Xiaoyu.
Under the interpretation of actor Du Xiaoyu, Du Qi, a fierce heart and unscrupulous means to achieve the goal, is not only bad, cruel, but also has seven passions and six desires, as well as the desire and cherishing of friendship and love.
This round of "The Thief Wants to Get You" will be performed at the Haidian Theater until January 18, 2020, so hurry up and go to the theater to see Du Xiaoyu's happy twist classic role Du Qi!
