Nie Rongzhen: "Tell uncle, what is your name?" "Guard: "Report Commander, she (Mihoko) can't understand Chinese, she's Japanese..."
Using the form of immersive opera, let party members and the masses deeply understand history, and use music to build a "rainbow bridge" for party history study and education. On October 27, at the Jiading District Party Building (Group) Service Center, the premiere ceremony of the micro-opera "Chasing the Light", which was jointly performed by 86 party members and masses from various grass-roots units in Jiangqiao Town, was held.
On the stage, the red micro-opera "Chasing the Light", which has been carefully rehearsed for half a year, consists of "Honghu Red Guards", "Red Lantern Record", "A Letter", "Qia Classmate Teenager", "Sister Jiang", and "White Haired Girl", is being staged one by one. In addition to the familiar story, "A Letter" tells that Marshal Nie Rongzhen wrote a letter to the Japanese troops stationed in Shijiazhuang during the Hundred Regiments War during the War of Resistance Against Japan. Under the careful care of the Eighth Route Army, the two Japanese girls grew up healthily and were finally sent to the Japanese garrison. In the play, Nie Rongzhen's fatherly love and humanitarian feelings moved the audience.
It is worth mentioning that the 86 extras are from various grass-roots units in Jiangqiao Town, including employees of enterprises and institutions, as well as auxiliary police, social workers, and kindergarten students, of which young groups account for the vast majority. They write and direct themselves, and according to the needs of the storyline, they will read and learn various historical materials, learn opera, drama, etc., and strive to show the moving moments of heroes in art forms.
Chen Lin is a window worker at the Jiangqiao Town Community Affairs Acceptance Service Center and the actor of Han Ying in the "Honghu Red Guards" micro-drama. In order to perform this role well, she consulted the historical materials of the Honghu Red Guards and also learned more about the role of Han Ying, she said: "As a relatively young party member after the 80s, a window service staff, I must not only do practical things for the masses, but also stand up to Han Ying at a critical moment and play the vanguard and exemplary role of party members." ”
The whole performance uses opera, drama, music, stage design and other forms of artistic expression, and the six plays are more moving, more artistic appeal and expression, making the study and education of party history more heartfelt and heartfelt with the help of the narration of the national first-class actor Yang Ming. Yang Ming said that the form of micro-opera can make everyone understand empathy, use the roles interpreted, the roles played, and go deep into the heart of the characters to feel our martyrs and feel our heroes, which is more realistic.
The fully dedicated performance also won applause from the audience in Jiangqiao Town. Seeing their familiar colleagues or friends, the audience was deeply touched. "This is a very new form of party history study and education this year, before we were mostly through lectures and other ways of learning, through this different form of red micro-opera, let me have a new way of learning, feel the history of struggle in the past hundred years, for my future work has a new motivation." Sun Xiaoyan, a resident of Jiangfeng Community, said.
According to reports, "Chasing the Light" will be toured in Jiangqiao Town, continuing to send a vivid lesson to the party members and masses to meet the educational and learning needs of different age levels.
