2019关渡艺术节 北管戏传统剧目《闹西河》
简介
资深艺师亲自领身 演绎三妖斗宝征剿鏖战
《闹西河》是北管少见的神怪戏,唱腔属于古路系统,唱唸主要采用官话,本次演出将出演其中的〈三妖斗宝〉。剧情以宋代外邦单单国派驸马姜统(铜钟精所变)入侵中原为背景,宋廷命胡延平家人前去沙河征剿,却都被姜统俘虏;此时胡延平之子胡仁宝(白鹤精所变)奉命,带着师父赐的照妖镜、宝剑、穿杨神箭等三件宝物前去搭救,并在途中遇见表兄高风豹(狗精所变)、魏元龙(猫精所变),三人一起结伴前往。后仁宝听风豹要与单单国宫主萧翠英成亲,便设计取得风豹的隐身草,先去与宫主相会。三人与姜统鏖战多时未果,仁宝用照妖镜得知他乃玉帝前铜钟所变,故刀枪不入,只能利用穿杨神箭射中咽喉杀之以救出父亲,班师回朝后即与宫主翠英成亲。
北管戏曲在表演身段较为轻缓,演员着重于利用手眼表达个性,亦能透过眼神来牵引观众融入情节起伏。演员透过不同的身、步动作,搭配上刀、枪、扇等道具辅助,以表现开门、上马、搭船等动作。
本演出由资深北管戏艺师彭绣静、董盈廷共同指导排练演出,亦特别感谢新竹都城隍庙及竹堑北管剧团多年大力支持。
Pak-koán Theatre ‘A Bizarre Adventure at Xihe’ is a rare script about witchcraft, which consists of melodies from the ‘old style’ and sung in a historical dialect from northern China named ‘koaⁿ-oē’ (official language around 400 years ago). Characters are shown from actors’ hand gestures and eyes, and with props such as sword, fan, table or chair, they perform open door, get on a horse. Our thanks go to senior Pak-koán artists Hsiu-Ching Peng and young artist Ying-Ting Tung’s coaching, but also to the long-term support from Hsinchu Chenghuang Temple and Hsinchu Beiguan Art Troupe.
Today’s performance “Three Wizards and Their Treasures” is a highlight from ‘A Bizarre Adventure at Xihe’, depicting an imagined battle, in which Sung Empire was invaded by Prince of Tantan (an imagined foreign state), Kiang Thóng. Kiang Thóng was actually turned into a human from the spirit of a copper bell, owned by the God Jade Emperor. Sung Emperor sent General Hu and his army for defense, but all were captured by Kiang Thóng. General Hu’s son, Hu Lîn Pǎo, who was actually turned into a human from a white crane, was sent by his wizard master to help, equipped with three magical treasures: a magical mirror, a double-edged sword, and an unfailing arrow. On the way to Xihe, Lîn Pǎo was joined with two cousins, Kao Hong Pǎo and Ûi Iân Lông (turned into a human from a dog and a cat). With the help of yet one more treasure, the stealthy grass which makes the owner invisible, they successfully defeated Kiang Thóng, rescued General Hu, and Lîn Pǎo married the Princess of Tantan.
