剧目介绍
哈利路亚!阿兰·本奈特(Alan Bennett)这部犀利而又温情的新剧中,老年合唱团们是否还要为英国国家医疗服务系统唱一曲赞歌呢?
约克郡一家从摇篮到坟墓的公立医院正在面临生存危机,为此院方请来了一个摄制组来进驻拍摄纪录片,镜头捕捉到了这里日复一日的床位斗争,复杂的医患关系,也捕捉到了老人们自得其乐的合唱团;而前来探望老父亲的白厅管理顾问,正琢磨着关闭这些资金不足的小型医疗机构……正如媒体所说,“偶尔古怪,*远善良”,这是阿兰·本奈特熟悉的配方:略带苦涩的情景喜剧,包裹着严肃的意图和沉重的议题。
作为英国当代国宝级作家,阿兰·本奈特此前备受好评的舞台作品包括《历史系男生》、《住货车的女人》和《疯王乔治三世》等,大多被改编为电影。在老搭档、导演尼古拉斯·希特纳(Nicholas Hytner)一手创办塔桥剧院并任艺术总监后,阿兰·本奈特在这里上演了两人的第十次合作,“三苗”塞缪尔·巴奈特(Samuel Barnett)、萨沙·达万(Sacha Dhawan)、奥利弗奖得主黛博拉·芬得利(Deborah Findlay)等熟悉的面孔,也出现在本剧中。
Alan Bennett’s sharp and hilarious new play is ‘just what the doctor ordered’ (Daily Telegraph). Filmed live at London’s Bridge Theatre during its limited run, don’t miss this ‘rousing chorus line for the NHS’ (Observer) in your local cinema.
The Beth, an old fashioned cradle-to-grave hospital serving a town on the edge of the Pennines, is threatened with closure as part of an efficiency drive. A documentary crew, eager to capture its fight for survival, follows the daily struggle to find beds on the Dusty Springfield Geriatric Ward, and the triumphs of the old people’s choir.
Alan Bennett’s celebrated plays include The History Boys, The Lady in the Van and The Madness of George III, all of which were also seen on film. Allelujah! is his tenth collaboration with award-winning director Nicholas Hytner.
