一场无言“独角戏”即将上演
青年编导徐一鸣2023全新创作
打破镜框剧场之固有观演关系
仅限百余位观者“就近”观演
无人可说，无处可说，无话可说
一位“嗔人”在此自言自语

 

【作品介绍】
“现实”告诉我“现实”是无可言说的真实，我们无语、失语，在无限的试探和纠结中步履蹒跚。

一天与朋友叙旧，酒过三巡我说：一直在行动，痛苦却与日俱增。他回了一个“嗔”字。 是的，回头一看，确实如此。一个“嗔人”，说了一个梦，说了一个关于我们的梦，而对于他者，我不过是一自言自语的“病人” 。

这“病人”从有记忆起，记忆里就是空空的，空得发白。有一天醒来，原本发白的空，逐渐有了颜色，就像出嫁的红妆。打这起，我慢慢颠倒了过来。可我还是白白的。在这一片喜庆的颜色里，我如羊羔倒挂在这一片诡异的气氛中，逐渐变得“成熟”……

 

【主创说】
这次的观演关系是一次新的尝试，意图打破原有镜框剧场带有距离感的观赏性样式的观演模式。当然，在这个任何空间任何时间都可以成为剧场的时代，这种想法好像是老调重弹。当然不是，这是一次专项的解构。我对那些古老的地标式的“建筑”进行“解刨”工作，试图让它们在未来具有更多的功能性的存在。

另一方面，我的创作也一直在对当下技术的使用与出现在做重新的考量。为了技术而技术，技术的滥用与沉迷其中无法自拔，这使技术的本质逐渐脱离了人本身的思考。所以我在自己的作品里尽可能的做到“低技术模式”，“低技术模式”并不代表对技术的厌恶和否定，而是从新开始，一种从人本位出发的开始。

It’s a “one-man show” with no words.

A new production by choreographer and director XU Yiming.

Breaking the form of theatre and the relations between the stage and the audience, the work invites an exclusive number of only 120 viewers to see the show in zero distance.
No one to talk to.

No place to share.
No word to say.
Just an "angry man" talking to himself right here.

 

[About the Work]
The reality is that “reality” is an unspeakable truth. Speechless, silent, lost for words, unable to speak… to speak or not to speak? I stumble and falter in my infinite probing and hesitation.

Once I was drinking with a friend, a little buzzed I said, I’ve always been in action, but the pain accumulates. He responded with the word “Dvesha”. Indeed, looking back, it is accurate. An angry man, speaking of a dream, a dream about us. But for the others, I am no more than a sick man murmuring to myself.

The sick man has a memory, wiped out, white as a blank page of paper. A certain morning I woke, the white became tinted with a shade of blood, like the blush of a bride. Ever since then, I turned upside down, yet still white as ever. In a backdrop of the cheerful red, I am hung upside down, in the eerie air, like a lamb. Ripening, slowly…

 

[Words from Choreographer]
This is a new attempt on spectatorship, aiming to break away from the conventional and distanced way of viewing in a proscenium theater. Of course, in this era when any space and any time can become a theater, this idea may seem like a same old story. Yet not so, for this is a special deconstruction. I am working on the "deconstruction" of these old landmark “architecture”, trying to give them a more functional presence in the future.

 

On the other hand, my work has been a reflection and reconsideration of how technology is used and brought up nowadays. Technology for the sake of technology, the abuse and indulgence of technology have gradually detached itself from humanistic thinking. Therefore, I try to be as "low-tech" as possible in my works. "Low-tech" is not an aversion or negation of technology, but a new beginning, a beginning from a human perspective.
