China Youth Daily Client News (China Youth Daily, China Youth Network reporter Wang Yejie) a few days ago, the original realist drama "Three Days of Golden Autumn", jointly produced by the Shanghai Theater Academy and the Shanghai Shangyi Drama Society, opened its first round of performances in Shanghai. The play selects the hot theme of the life of the elderly in the current aging society process, and through the vivid and plump character image and the ups and downs of the dramatic story, it depicts a realistic picture of supporting the elderly and the elderly in the new era.
A private nursing home that has encountered an existential crisis, a group of elderly people who are eager to seek love and spend the rest of their lives together in the hustle and bustle of the city, the self-redemption of a returnee elite, a story that occurred 3 days before the Chongyang Festival, and the "pro-boss drama" drama "Three Days of Golden Autumn" reflects the mental state and value pursuit of the elderly in the 21st century.
Sun Zuping, screenwriter and professor at the Shanghai Theater Academy, hopes that through this play, he will emphasize that "we must be reasonable," which is rooted in the cultural soil of the Shanghai School of Shanghai, and the operating principle of modern civilized society. Director and former director of the Performance Department of the Shanghai Theater Academy, Long Junjie, strives to highlight the distinct characteristics of the times through a large number of detailed designs, and present the audience with a bright, fresh, atmospheric and poetic scene of modern urban life in Shanghai.
In the play, behind the harmonious scene of the Beautiful Garden Nursing Home, the family's beloved nursing home is facing a sudden dilemma: the bank calls every day to remind Lei Li that there are still three days left before the date he returns the bank mortgage. If overdue, the apartment building will be auctioned off to repay the loan. The pension cause that Lei Li has devoted himself to is in jeopardy, and the pension paradise of the elderly may be lost at any time. Lei Li's capital chain has a problem, and he can only negotiate with his in-laws to mortgage their only house. This specific dramatic situation is not uncommon in real life: private pension institutions encounter various difficulties such as shortage of funds, commercial demolition and shortage of care workers, and unsustainable situations occur from time to time. The dilemma faced by the Beautiful Garden Nursing Home is very typical.
As early as 2000, the Ministry of Civil Affairs promulgated the "Opinions on Accelerating the Realization of social welfare socialization", encouraging private capital to enter the pension service industry, and formulating preferential policies for the development of the pension industry, however, in the face of the arrival of an aging society, the development of this pension industry with public welfare attributes still needs the support of greater social aspects and policy implementation, and cannot rely solely on individual strength.
How to let the elderly get more care has become a problem for the whole society. "Three Days of Golden Autumn" is the script of the 2016 Script Support Project of the Ministry of Culture, a major literary and artistic creation funding project of the Shanghai Cultural Development Foundation, and won the first prize of the script of the 29th Tian Han Drama Award.
It is reported that "Three Days of Golden Autumn" is the third realistic drama launched by Shanghai Shangyi Drama Society, which has been established for only 3 years. In the past two years, this private drama company has successfully created three original high-quality drama works based on the theme of Shanghai story and Shanghai culture, of which 4 actors from the two major plays "Song of Life" and "Xu Cun Story" won the 29th Shanghai Magnolia Drama Performing Arts Award this year.
Shangyi Drama Club was founded by alumni of Shanghai Theater Academy. In the process of devoting itself to the creation and performance of Original Stage Plays of Haipai, this private drama club has joined hands with Shanghai Opera, a theater institution of higher learning, and actively introduced academic resources, so that the repertoire has received great technical and talent support in terms of artistry, professionalism and quality. Taking "Three Days of Golden Autumn" as an example, the choreographer, director, acting and choreography are composed of alumni of the Shanghai Theater Academy. In addition to the screenwriter Sun Zuping and director Long Junjie, a group of highly respected and over 80-year-old artists joined in full force, becoming a highlight of the play, including the famous performance artist Zheng Yuzhi, Shanghai Theater Academy professor An Zhenji, etc., of which Zheng Yuzhi, An Zhenji, Yang Baolong, Wu Erpu are alumni who graduated from the 1950s to the 70s of the last century, starring Sun Sihan graduated from the Department of Opera performance in 90 years, and has been active in the film and television art circle for a long time; also graduated from the theater, active in the theater stage, On the screen, powerful actors Rong Rong, Wei Li, Li Bing, etc. also starred in the play.
