On December 10, the Beijing Renyi drama “Li Bai” staged the last performance of this round, and it also celebrated its 30th birthday. From its premiere on December 10, 1991 to the present, there are a total of 237 performances. The starring Pu Cunxin and Gong Lijun did not live in a single performance from the 20s to 30s to the 50s and 60s. This play has not only become a classic in human art, but also for them. An important part of life.
At five o’clock in the afternoon, with more than two hours before the performance, the backstage of the Capital Theater gradually became lively as usual. On the small table in the backstage corridor, Renyi’s “Shenshui” honeysuckle tea has been brewed, the coffee machine is activated, and a strong coffee fragrance is emitted. It is printed on a big cake made by fans for the thirty years of “Li Bai” A group photo of the crew, the sunflowers sent by the fans shined with golden light…
Director Tang Ye, starring Gong Lijun, and Wang Gang were all participating in the assessment and review of Beijing People’s Artistic Young Actors on the same day, and they came early. Pu Cunxin arrived at the theater at around five o’clock, and as usual, several reporters were waiting for interviews.
“Don’t let me shout any slogans, it’s okay to talk about art.” Pu Cunxin said that he is not afraid of interviews, not afraid of dramas, but afraid of those clichés and big talks. “Li Bai” is undoubtedly an extremely important play for him, and it is also a play that cannot be said. , Get ready to create something on the stage and forget everything in life.”
Some people say that he is in a state of “light boat is over” in “Li Bai” now. He said that when he was young, he always worked hard to perform, and now he doesn’t sweat anymore, he just comes on the line. “The reason why I was able to go deep into Li Bai’s spiritual realm was because I had similar pains. When I was an educated youth, I sat on the hills and grazing on the wheat piles. So I can understand Li Bai’s life on the Yangtze River. I am shaping Li Bai, and Li Bai is also shaping me.”
Tang Ye on one side said: “Brother Pu, you are sitting there and breathing like Li Bai is breathing.” Tang Ye said, Pu Cunxin played Li Bai in his thirties and tried to find the feeling of sixty years old. He has not even been a team leader. It is difficult to understand Li Bai’s state of mind when he wants to be an official. Now he has been the vice president and the chairman of the Chinese Theatre Association. He has also experienced smooth and unsatisfactory moments. Transplanted to Li Bai, there will be a new interpretation of the role.
Nowadays, Pu Cunxin, who is in his sixties, is older than Li Bai in the play, and his mood is close, but his hands and feet are not as flexible as when he was young. On the armrest of the sofa in his dressing room, there are rolled bandages. Pu Cunxin’s feet were crippled during the performance of “Thunderstorm”, and he was not doing well. Before the performance of “Li Bai”, he had to bandage his ankles. At the end of the play, when the moon rose, Li Bai had an action that raised his leg high and slowly stepped into the moon shadow, but now he turned and stepped in. Tang Ye said that once after the performance, Pu Cunxin asked her if the moon had grown bigger, “I can imagine how difficult it is for him to take those steps.”
“Where to find the soul of poetry? To Tushan, quarrying, green lotus, and broken leaves, what to take off your boots and hold inkstones so that you can enjoy yourself, I am afraid that it will be difficult to choose after returning from officialdom…” The curtain has not yet opened, Director Su Min The opening poem of the recitation sounded, and the audience was immediately drawn into Li Bai’s world. Pu Cunxin said that in the first performance of this round, everyone said that he performed supernormally. “I have been capturing Li Bai’s truth, the truth that is true regardless of right or wrong, but that truth does not exist every day. I heard my father’s recitation that day, and I immediately entered the state.” Father’s recitation was like one. The key led him into Li Bai’s world, and it was like a ruler, demanding his performance, “When that voice comes out, it is an aesthetic standard, so you can’t slack off.”
Gong Lijun, who has been cooperating with Pu Cunxin for 30 years in this drama, is also Pu Cunxin’s most tacit partner. I can give feedback right away.” When there was no play of his own, Gong Lijun stood at the “master” in the stand on the side of the stage. The action of the hard fall after the hard fall was changed to a shake, and when the light dimmed before lying on the ground, the original lying fish could only do half of it, but Gong Lijun felt that this did not affect the color of the play, “Li Bai’s feeling It has been integrated into his blood. He is now closing the performance, receiving a lot of content, and conveying things more profoundly, which is more in line with the Li Bai described by Qihong teacher.”
At the final curtain call, Pu Cunxin wore a white robe and led the actors and actresses to bow three times to the audience. There were countless cheers from the audience. Pu Cunxin specially invited the director to come to the stage to meet with the audience. In the face of warm applause, Tang Ye proposed to dedicate the applause to the screenwriter Guo Qihong, director Su Min, and many older artists of Beijing Renyi who cannot be present today. “Li Bai”.”
Pu Cunxin said: “Thirty years ago, our performance was not very good. It was the audience who paid for our tuition fees all the time. The audience accompany us to support our progress in 237 games. I hope the audience will continue to support us in the future.” As for everyone. Concerned about the question of whether “Li Bai” will be performed again, he said that there is no performance plan next year, so let’s talk about it the next year. (Reporter Niu Chunmei)
