What is the specific situation of a play? (except Tibetan opera)

Huai Bang:

Huai Bang is an ancient local opera in Henan. Foreigners commonly call it "Old Huai Bang", "Little Bangzi", "Huaidiao" and "Huaiqing Bangzi". Mainly popular in Huaiqing Prefecture (now Qinyang, Boai, Jiyuan, Mengzhou, Wenxian, Wuzhi, Xiuwu, Yuanyang and Huozhou).

At present, there are different opinions about the origin of Huai Bang: According to Wang Tingshun, an old artist (1892- 1983), "as early as the end of the Ming Dynasty, when Chongzhen hanged himself, there were Huai Bang operas in Qinyang". It was recorded in the Memorial Book of the First Opera Performance in Henan Province (150 years ago). Today, there is still a saying: "If you take off your pants and clothes, you must look at the silver against the Western Tang Dynasty, and if you sell garlic and ginger, you must look at your old age." Li Guoan, an old opera fan, recalled: During the long years of Qing Dynasty, there were performances by Huai Bang Opera Troupe in Huaiqing Prefecture, which was called Opera Troupe, Opera Troupe and Poseidon Drama at that time: "Before and after the founding of New China, there were about 50 Huai Bang Clubs in Huaiqing Prefecture, including Jianghu Clubs, Dragon and Tiger Clubs, Fun Clubs, Sanqing Clubs, Le Yi Clubs, Yongsheng Clubs, Flame Clubs, Qinhe Clubs and so on.

Huai Bang has a history of more than 300 years, and enjoys more than 30 famous old artists in "Gaiba County", mainly including Guo Jingyuan, Jing Wanquan (), Tian Laizhu, Miao Xinfa, Zhang Shuzhu (Mazhu), Hulu, Xiaolan, Meatball, Red Cone, Li, Yu Guangsheng, Li Fagui and Zhao (Mao Yi). In the past, there were no actresses in Huai Bang, and all the roles were played by actors. The first Fang Yue appeared after 1945 and 1953, and the first actresses appeared in Huai Bang. They are Wang Xiurong, Ding Xiuzhi, Wang Fenglan, Qin Sufang (Xiao Kuan) and Zhao Yuqing. Since then, the history of Huai Bang without actresses has ended.

Huai Bang has his own unique style in singing and performing arts. His singing is impassioned, his performance is rough and unrestrained, and he is good at performing dynasty plays. Most of the plays are twins, Shuang Dan and two-faced people.

Because Huai Bang is a banqiang, you must beat the rhythm with dates when singing. The lyrics are mostly seven sentences, and the cross-sentences are long and short sentences, which correspond to each other from top to bottom and rhyme with the rhythm, and the structure is basically regular. There are more than 300 traditional dramas in Huai Bang, and nearly 100 modern fashion dramas have been staged. Representative plays include: Anti-Xijing, Gu Huai Case, Zhang Chun Drunk, All the Young and the Old, The Red Pearl Girl, The Three Houses of the Qin Dynasty, Yuanmen Slaughter, Peach Blossom Temple, Fengyi Pavilion, Lao Zhengdong, Birthday of Five Women and Yang Paifeng.

From 1953 to 1963, there were about 500 amateur Huai Bang troupes in Xinxiang 14 cities and counties. Unfortunately, after ten years of turmoil, most of them were forced to stop their activities or change their doors. After the Third Plenary Session of the Eleventh Central Committee of the Communist Party of China, many rural amateur troupes rejoined the army and performed on stage. So far, they have performed in six cities and counties in Jiaozuo.

According to relevant historical records, the development of this kind of drama was unstoppable in the late Qing Dynasty and the early Republic of China. There used to be "Five Houses", namely, Zhangdefu (Anyang City), Weihui House (Jixian City), Huaiqing House (Qinyang City), Daming House and Shunde House (Xingtai City), including Guangping House, which spread to Baoding, Shijiazhuang, Yangquan, Changzhi City and the west. Huai Bang is still singing in Zanhuang County of Shijiazhuang and Xin 'an County of Luoyang.

From 65438 to 0956, Qin Yang has participated in 2 5 national, provincial, local and municipal opera performances, exhibitions and competitions since he established a professional troupe, and won more than 40 awards such as performance, director, music, beauty and individual actor. There are 5 China prizes, 2 provincial first prizes, 7 second prizes and 3 rd prizes 14. Many excellent plays and arias are often recorded and played by the central and provincial and municipal radio and television stations, and materials such as Huai Bang Music Integration, Huai Bang Art, Huai Bang Aria Selection and Huai Bang Forum Collection are edited and published at the national and provincial levels. It is worth mentioning that in 1992, "Guhuai Case" won three awards at a discount in the performance of "The First Troupe in the World", and Huai Bang Troupe was named "The First Troupe in the World" by the Ministry of Culture.

Because Lingbao and the birthplace of Pu Opera are only separated by a river (Yellow River), the language and living habits are basically the same, and Pu Opera is easily accepted and loved. Therefore, although it belongs to other provinces, Pu Opera quickly took root and spread in Lingbao and developed into a major drama.

During the Jiaqing and Daoguang periods of the Qing Dynasty, it was popular in Nanyang except the western mountainous areas, with Sheqi, Fangcheng and Nanyang as the center. The Song Dynasty and the early years of the Republic of China were the heyday of Sanxianshu, with artists' footprints all over Henan, Hubei, Shanxi, Shaanxi, Anhui and other places, and even parts of Northeast China and Inner Mongolia.

A group of old and new actors, such as Pei Changyi, Pei Changshou, Zhang, Ma, Pan and Sun Guofeng (the last four actresses) sang a lot of songs. The appearance of actresses, in particular, greatly enriched and promoted the development of Sanxian calligraphy.

Daxian Opera House:

Daxian Opera is an ancient opera popular in northern Henan, the banks of the Yellow River and western Shandong. As for its origin, it is said that it is related to the popular "Xiansuo" in the Central Plains since the Yuan and Ming Dynasties, so it was named "Xiansuo". In other words, it is called "string play" because it starts with three strings of an instrument. The singing style of Daxian Opera is Qupai style, which is composed of traditional music and court music, mainly folk tunes since the Northern Yuefu and Yuan and Ming Dynasties. The voice changes frequently and the syllables jump greatly. The real voice is used to exhale, and the falsetto is used to perform. Play Wen Qu sentimental, soft and delicate; When playing Wu Qu, it is like an iron horse, and Ma Si screams, which is inspiring.

Daxian Opera, which is active on both sides of Liangshan and the Yellow River in Shui Bo, is influenced by regional and human environment. Most of the dramas staged are based on the struggle between loyalty and traitors, military conquest and anti-traitors, and are based on classic works such as Romance of the Three Kingdoms, Xiang Ma, Water Margin, Xiqi and Ming Yinglie. Those martial arts performances, such as striding mountains, leaping waves and tigers, rough and pungent plum blossom boxing and Hong boxing, and real fighting scenes with real swords and guns, make people feel hearty and lifelike. The bold and unconstrained Daxian opera was also very active during the Qianlong period of the Qing Dynasty. There are 18 troupes in Kaifeng, Taikang and even Luohe, which are divided into three classes: Li, Jing and Wang. Later, Li was introduced to Shandong, Jing was popular in northern Henan and Wang was introduced to southern Shanxi. At the end of Guangxu in Qing Dynasty, the dramatists Dang Fuxiu (Xu Sheng) and Gao Wenzhong (black face) of Shandong Daxian crossed the Yellow River and came to perform in the Daxian Opera Troupe in Yamen, Puyang County, which is famous on both sides of the Yellow River. During the Republic of China, Puyang and hua county Troupe performed repertoires of anti-Japanese national salvation and people's revolution.

After the founding of New China, Puyang Troupe and hua county Troupe processed and arranged a large number of traditional plays and modern plays, which were well received by the local people.

(1) Five handfuls of color-the stunt in the string song "Guo grabs a kiss". Actors use five kinds of props, such as grapple hook, kitchen knife, scissors, broadsword and hay cutter, and each of the five props is prepared with a real one and a fake one, which are used by both actors respectively. For example, when you open a fight with scissors, while showing the audience real scissors, the stabbed person sticks fake scissors to his eyes and smears "blood" on his face. The other four props are treated in this way, but the color positions are different. No matter which part of the opponent is cut, the injured person needs to touch the injured part with his hand to let the "blood color" in his hand flow out, accompanied by crying to show his pain. The scene of the fight was tense and explosive, scary and exciting.

(2) Sleeping on the three-hole bridge-a bunch of stunts to rest for the hero. The performer should quickly and stably lie on his side on the table or stage, with his whole body supported by his right elbow and knee, his right hand resting on his elbow, his right knee touching the ground, his legs hanging up and his left leg hanging down, forming three gaps in the middle, hence the name "Three-hole Bridge".

(3) Breaking tiles-the stunt in the traditional drama "Opening a Shop in Sun Erniang" of Daxian Opera. Sun Erniang saw Song Wu and was thrown out by Song Wu's men. Sun Erniang was ashamed and angry. He grabbed the folded four tiles and swooped down, holding Song Wu's chin with his left hand and hitting him on the head with his right hand. After the noise, all four tiles were broken. The action is vivid and neat, which is amazing.

(4) The dramas of Daxian Opera mainly focus on the struggle between loyalty and ministers, military conquest and anti-traitors and tyrants, such as Xue Gang against the Tang Dynasty.
