"What's the matter? What's up? God, the young master laughs. Jesus Christ, now I finally know why everyone calls him young master! God, God, I'm going to die
"What are they talking about? what? Did you hear what the young master said just now? Why are they all laughing, ah! How to do, my fingers are shaking now, I can't help it! I don't care. I'll go. I'll go! "
"How long? How long has it been? This is a torture! Why is the young master still at the door? Shouldn't he leave right away and leave us in the wind? And then walk away? He... Why did he stop here! God! Why test me like this? "
At this time, the gate of Almeida theater was in a battle between heaven and man. Whether to stick to his own line or leave the line to have a close contact with lanli is definitely one of the most terrible, painful and difficult tests in history. Especially, it is really a torture to see lanli talking with other people.
Finally, finally, someone couldn't bear it.
Rebecca Burke left her team, walked up quickly, and then caught the words, "... Ha, no, I don't think so. I never think I'm a genius, otherwise, I don't need to practice so early. " Blue Li's eyes with a shallow smile, the corner of his mouth outlined a radian, and answered with a smile.
"Young master, young master, so you came here so early, just for practice?" Rebecca's whole life was full of vitality, and she couldn't wait to ask her first question.
At this moment, there are 30 or 40 people gathered at the gate of Almeida theater, not many of them. More audiences are still standing in the line from afar, standing on tiptoe, sticking out their heads, curious and expecting, painfully and excitedly trying to catch some clues; But the wonderful thing is that the 30 or 40 people are in good order, presenting a beautiful and complete fan-shaped, with the blue rite as the center, showing the pattern and silk.
Such order and momentum is really a flash in the eye.
"Yes." Lan Li followed the voice to look in the past, nodded slightly, expressed affirmation; Rebecca only felt that her chest had been hit hard. Her bright eyes and shallow smile gave her a frontal blow“ Whoa, speaking of practice. The delay is more than expected. I have to go into the theater to practice now. I'm sorry
Lan Li's words came out, and all of them made a voice of chagrin.
Rebecca's brain was just in the crash, and the next second her dream was about to break. She hugged her head tightly, annoyed that she didn't come earlier, annoyed that she was indecisive, and her mouth involuntarily uttered exaggerated laments. Why did she ask that question just now? Why wake up the young master's attention? Why? Why?
"Master, master." Rebecca raised her voice. "Excuse me, can I take a picture with you?" There was a light of pleading in his eyes.
"Of course, no problem." Lanli's answer was so simple that no one responded. Even Rebecca was stunned. Then lanli added, "but this is the only one. I have to be in a hurry. I'm sorry The corners of his mouth gently sipped. Lan Li reluctantly spread his hands and tilted his head. He sincerely expressed his regret.
But Rebecca caught a trace of playfulness and banter. Her dark brown eyes were twinkling with the pride of the success of the prank. In a flash, even before she could blink, the light disappeared, so that Rebecca doubted whether she was dazzled.
Then Rebecca was pushed out and stood next to lenley.
Lenley politely took Rebecca's waist and bent down slightly to match Rebecca's height; But the right hand kept the gentleman's etiquette, did not really stick it on. Rebecca's waist could feel the warmth from the generous palm, and her heart began to beat disorderly, and her blood began to boil quietly.
Finally, Rebecca didn't even know how Langley left. There was just a buzzing sound in her ear; Repressed and repressed, after all, still can not suppress, "ah ah ah!" Rebecca began to scream: she took a picture with the young master, she stood side by side with the young master, she and the young master were almost close to each other, she
Countless thoughts and thoughts are surging in my mind, but I can't express them clearly. I just scream uncontrollably, "ah ah It's hard to describe the feeling of flying into the sky when you stand in the same place and spin, spin and spin again. The overheated brain is almost going to explode.
Back to her original position, Rebecca was surprised to find that there was no confusion in the team, and her position was still maintained. She opened her eyes and looked at the friends around her. They all whistled, and others coaxed, "Hey, girl, how about sharing your picture with the young master in the Facebook group? Among us, you are the only one who has a close contact with the young master. "
Rebecca didn't speak. She just nodded. She nodded hard. Her tears fell suddenly.
The hustle and bustle at the gate of Almeida theater gradually fell behind. Langley stepped into the theater, and his cheerful mood gradually settled down. The support of the audience is not only a driving force, but also a pressure, because in the stage performance of the theater, the tolerance space is too small, and all the performances and all the strength are presented to the audience at a glance.
Without the modification of the lens, without the scheduling of the director, even the lighting pattern and the rendering of the soundtrack are reduced to the lowest range, completely relying on the script and the actor's basic skills. Such a test is quite different from a movie; But at the same time, the difficulty has doubled.
What's more, the play "les miserables" lasts six hours, which is epic.
As the leading actor, lanli hopes to present the essence of this masterpiece; What's more, he needs to challenge Jean Valjean's role, which is so difficult, so complex and so age span. Just imagine in his mind, he has already begun to be enthusiastic.
The enthusiasm of the audience means that lanli needs to calm down and concentrate more.
At this time, the whole theater is still open, and the other members of the crew have not come yet, so the whole space belongs to lanli.
Lanli put his belongings on the edge of the stage. Instead of rushing to warm up or go on stage, he began to walk inside the theater. From left to right, from front to back, he measured the situation of the whole first floor with his own pace. He even entered the audience seats, watched the stage in different positions and corners, and made sounds at the same time.
Every day in the past seven days, Langley has entered the Almeida theatre ahead of time, repeating the same process.
For laymen, to adapt to the stage is to simply adapt to the stage, but they don't understand what the stage needs to adapt to? Isn't it just a table?
For professionals, there is a basic process to adapt to the stage, but everyone has their own small habits.
The so-called adaptation to the stage, on the one hand, is to adapt to the softness of the stage. The stages in west end and Broadway are all made of softwood with some flexibility, which is convenient for actors to stretch their limbs and perform dance and martial arts. At the same time, there are many small organs on the stage, and the wooden floor in a certain place may creak, The planks in some places may be slightly soft due to their age. These are the details that the audience can't see, but they are very important to the actors.
On the other hand, it adapts to light and space. In the process of performance, the actor needs to make full use of the whole stage, which is one of the basic skills. He will only be limited to the actor in the middle of the stage. His performance is bound and rigid, and lacks the point of view; But in the use of space, actors can not clumsily stare at the floor, coupled with the lighting factors, they need to have a three-dimensional feeling of the whole space.
The last aspect is sound effect. In contemporary stage plays, actors are still not allowed to wear microphones. Actors must make corresponding adjustments from body to voice to expression to ensure that their performance can be conveyed to the audience, especially the lines. The basic skills of the lines in stage plays are very important.
Of course, a small number of Dramas dedicated to tourists have begun to compromise by allowing actors to wear microphones. However, the Almeida theater still did not compromise this time.
Adapting to the stage is definitely not the end of two circles on the court. The importance of rehearsal is self-evident.
However, lanli has his own little quirks. He is used to watching the stage in every corner of the theater. Different positions present different perspectives and receive different performance information, which is the most different part from the movie.
The film screen is flat. For the audience, the information they receive is fixed by the photographer's picture and the director's lens; But on the stage, the first row and the last row, the middle and the two sides, the first floor and the second floor, different viewing angles bring different experience and feedback - therefore, the price of each position in the theater is also different.
Naturally, there are subtle differences in the location of different theatres.
Now, Langley is adapting to the location effect of Almeida theater. After the first floor was over, we went to the second and third floors. After walking around every corner, today's warm-up campaign was over. Then we went back to the stage and began to prepare for today's rehearsal.
One after another, members of the "les miserables" crew also arrived at the Almeida theatre. Today, not only the director, screenwriter and producer, but also theatre manager Emma fielding arrived.
Choosing a six hour "les miserables" and a brand new young cast is a suicidal challenge for Emma. She always pays close attention to the progress of the rehearsal, but it is only today that she arrives at Almeida theater for the first time to watch the rehearsal.
What's gratifying is that from the perspective of queuing effect, at least the premiere of "les miserables" will be a great sensation. Now the question is, under the sensational effect, expectations are rising, so can the repertoire meet people's expectations?
