Question 10: The Yu opera "Chaoyang Gully" briefly summarizes the story! Chaoyanggou" in the history of China's modern theater has a unique taste and has a special position is indisputable and alternative. The play was premiered in Zhengzhou on May 19, 1958 by the Third Troupe of Henan Yu Theater, with scriptwriter Yang Lanchun, directors Yang Lanchun and Xu Xin, music designers Wang Jixiao and Jiang Hongxuan, etc., and stage art designer Guan Peng.

In subsequent performances, Wei Yun played the role of Yinhuan and Ma Lin played Erdaniang. During this period, Chang Xiangyu played the role of Shuanbao Niang, which was filmed by Changchun Film Studio as an opera art film in 1963.

Synopsis

The script was published in a single volume. The play ***8 scenes, depicting the high school graduates Yinhuan to fiancé Shuanbao's hometown of Chaoyanggou to participate in agricultural production, encountered a series of difficulties, ideological shaking. In China *** grass-roots branches and the help of the masses, but also due to the labor cultivated in the deep love of the land and crops, so that she realized that the countryside is also the contribution of young people with knowledge of the vast world, and finally put down roots in the countryside. Chaoyanggou has made certain achievements in the use of traditional opera forms to express modern life. In addition to the main character, Yinhuan, the play also portrays Shuanbao, Shuanbao's mother, Shuanbao's father, Erdaniang, the old branch secretary, and other simple and loyal peasants. These characters are full of new thoughts and feelings, showing the spirit of peasants in the socialist era. The language of the play is full of individual characteristics, with a strong flavor of life and local color; the lyrics are vivid, funny and fast-paced. The story of the play is complete, the characters are concentrated, and the play has made achievements in the use of traditional structural methods. 1963, "Chaoyanggou" was made into an opera art film. The play has been transplanted and performed in Beijing Opera, Pian Opera, Lu Opera, Meitou Opera and Comic Opera. (See the colorful Yu opera "Chaoyanggou" (Wei Yun as Yinhuan, Chang Xiangyu as Shuanbao Niang))

It is worth mentioning that in 1982, Yang Lanchun also created a sequel to Chaoyanggou, "Chaoyanggou Inside", based on changes in life in the countryside.

The development of the work

Chaoyanggou has been transplanted by many types of theater. 1958, the Chinese Opera School had been adapted and rehearsed by the students of the 50th class of the Peking Opera Section, directed by Xun Lingxiang and Zhao Rongxin, and starring Qu Suying, Sun Hongxun, and Chen Guowei. 1963, the Experimental Peking Opera Troupe of the Chinese Academy of Theater Research processed and rearranged the play, with Song Deyang as the penman, Liu Muduo as the director, and Liu Xiurong and Li Guang as the main characters, and the performance was to be held for 1964, and was to be performed at the Chinese Academy of Theater Research. A book of performances intended to participate in the 1964 National Peking Opera Modern Drama Observation and Performance Conference, but due to inexplicable reasons, the play was denied by Jiang Qing and never performed in public.

After the Cultural Revolution, there were performances by Ma Shuhua and Li Xiuyun of the Tianjin Theater of Appraisal.

Regardless of the theme of the play (in fact, there are only a handful of works from the Great Leap Forward period that can really stand the baptism of time), its classic nature cannot be questioned. The musical image of "Chaoyanggou" is epoch-making, and I believe that it is not unprecedented in the history of Yu opera, but also the last. Which other play can create such a miracle regardless of the protagonist and supporting characters, regardless of the big and small sections can become "popular" songs?
