MTL - Cāi Cāi-Chapter 21 Act 4 "Out of My World" ②
Act 4 "Out of My World" 2
Just a few seconds after Xiang Gu was excited, the enthusiasm quickly faded.
He said tiredly, "What's it to do with" Go Out of My World "to choose a male lead? The male lead is only 11 years old. Even if you choose, you have to choose from freshmen who just entered school."
I have read many times in this "Jumping Out of My World", and he is not only reversing the plot, but he can also sing a few classic episodes.
The young Billy in the play rebelled against his father for the first time, put on ballet shoes for the first time, and for the first time helped raise the pole to become Batman ... his vision, longing, shyness, and pursuit of ballet were all the same as Xiang Guai The mental journey is exactly the same.
Xiang Guai also imagined that he could play the leading role, combining what he loved with what he is learning now-but he is 17 years old, a full six years older than the characters in the play, there is no possibility at all.
But another idea, if time goes back, back to five or six years ago, if someone put this great opportunity in front of the 12-year-old, he would certainly dismiss it, thinking that participating in a musical is a waste of his practice of dance time.
As soon as Xiang Guai said, Chen Ziran, who was sitting in the back row, rushed forward.
He grabbed Xiang Guai's shoulder from the back and said eagerly: "No, no, no, no! This time it's not the original drama remake, but the transplant replay! The director wants to move the whole story background to China !! The changes are very big From the Great Strike in the United Kingdom in the 1980s to the Laid-offs in China in the 1990s; In the play, the brother became an elder sister; the age of the actor also adjusted-"Chen Ziran's voice is getting higher and higher, and the speed of speech is getting faster "—The actor is changed to 15 years old !!! Xiang Guai, you have hope !!!"
After the introduction of foreign musicals and dramas, it is not uncommon to undergo "major surgery". In order to better fit the appreciation of domestic audiences, some changes are unavoidable.
In addition, the domestic lack of European and American countries' "grabbing from childhood" musical play cultivation soil. There are children who can act, children who can sing, and children who can dance, but the combination of the three is difficult to find.
In the end, the director and general producer decided to change the age of the actor, changing him from an 11-year-old boy to a 15-year-old boy.
The 15-year-old is the time when children are most rebellious. High school students of this age are facing severe academic challenges, and words like "life" and "future" are gradually appearing in their thinking. At this age, they are also the most likely to conflict with their parents.
The producer has a wide network in the musical theatre industry. While adapting the script, he contacted the principals of dance schools in Huacheng, Hucheng, and Liaocheng, and brought other main actors to cast roles.
Chen Ziran is well-informed, and his friends are all over the world. He heard from friends who studied Latin together that the main creators of "Out of My World" have gone to several schools. The other characters have been selected for seven or seven. There is also no end result.
The Huawu High School is their last stop.
"Xiang Gui, this role is just for you!" Qi Yan was excited, her cheeks flushed, "You have to sing, perform, and dance ballet ... If you ca n’t choose this role, That other person is not even better! "
Both Chen Ziran and Qi Ji encouraged Xiang Guai with the same eyes as "taking things out of the sac," but the hearts of Xiang Gu were heavy, not as optimistic as they thought.
...... If the director and producer really plan to choose candidates from the Chinese Dance School, then why not come to their class and go directly to the ballet department?
"Mr. Song, I think we have to discuss this matter again." Outside the glass door of the dance classroom, the director of the "Out of My World" Tang Fengyu looked at the producer beside him,
Beside him, the producer Song Lin stood with his hands on his back, and his eyes fell on the group of energetic ballerinas in the dance classroom.
Tang Fengyu said: "This is a musical, the focus should be on singing, and the quality of dancing is not the only criterion. Why do you have to choose someone from the ballet department?"
Take the West End of London, for example, "Out of My World" was performed for 11 years. There were seven or eight different male lead versions, and everyone's focus was on singing. Although it is a "dream ballet", the ballet posture of the actor is not standard.
Song Lin shook his head: "No. The original male is 11 years old and he has just started practicing dance, so even if he doesn't dance well, as long as he has potential, his family is willing to train him."
Song Lin also said, "But our actor is 15 years old. At this age, if he can't show his strong dancing ability, he can't fight his father. If I choose an actor, I stumble on the stage, even A single-footed rotation can't hold it, so in the eyes of the audience, he gave up normal school to practice dance, this story is not convincing. "
Regarding the age of the male lead, it was not that he decided to amend it as soon as he patted his head. The main creative team has met together countless times and done a large number of audience surveys.
This is also related to national conditions-for most domestic parents, they have no way of understanding why 11- and 12-year-olds are rebellious. Because in their eyes, 11-year-old still belongs to "children", how can children have rebellious thoughts? Oh, they don't even have an idea!
Therefore, if the crew were to copy the original setting and write a story "11-year-old boy escaped from extra-curricular tuition classes to learn ballet when his father was laid off," it would not resonate with the audience.
However, if the age is extended to 15 years old, it is extended to the freshman of high school, and the protagonist and his family are placed in the college entrance examination environment under increasing pressure, then the whole story will become more national.
But in contrast, the male lead must have a strong ballet skills, otherwise it will lack persuasion.
Because of this, the producer Song Lin insisted on choosing a talented dancer.
When they entered the dance classroom, the boys in the ballet department were having a lesson. Because of the different dance movements and required physical qualities, the professional courses for boys and girls are taken separately.
In the room, a dozen young boys stood in two rows, standing upright and light, dancing to the music, every move was so pleasing to the eye.
Even Tang Fengyu must admit that they did indeed perform perfectly, much better than the seedlings I had seen in Shanghai and Liaocheng before.
They will stay at the Chinese Dance Affiliated Middle School for half a month, carefully examine ballet students between 14 and 18 years of age, select the sound conditions after the sound-changing period, and then proceed to the next sight-singing assessment.
"Right." Song Lin suddenly remembered and turned to look at the head of the ballet department. "I heard before that you have a" little prince "in the ballet department, and on behalf of the school, went to the Vaganova Ballet School in Russia to communicate. Did he graduate? If not, let him come over and try the mirror. "
Speaking of the former lover, the head of the department paused, with a low tone: "You said Xiang Guai? He should have graduated this time, but there was an accident and he was suspended for one year. He is now transferred. Going to song and dance major. "
"Professional singing and dancing?" The director Tang Fengyu flashed in front of his eyes and said quickly, "Isn't that right? For this musical, we need a male lead who is good at singing and ballet!"
If they could find the student, they wouldn't have to worry about it anymore!
Song Lin was also very interested in "Oh?" And said, "Then call Xiang Gu, let's take a look. Let me talk first-although we are old friends, but I choose actors very strictly. Ah! If I can't jump well, I won't open the back door for you! "
"... I'm afraid he can't meet your requirements." The head of the department is a mentally old lady, her silver hair turned into a tight bun. She said with a wry smile, "He had a traffic accident last summer, and he almost couldn't stand up. In the year he was out of school, he had done four games before and after the operation. If it wasn't for this, how would I be willing to give this up Good seedlings for other professions. "
Hearing this answer, Song Lin raised her eyebrows in surprise and regretted: "This ... this is too bad. Is the driver drunk?"
The head of the department shook his head heavily.
"Not an accident-deliberate revenge." The head of the department lowered his eyes and covered the red blood in his eyes. "His parents owe a lot of gambling debts, and they haven't got any money. Those underworld ... can do everything."
That young man with a bright future, his youth suddenly settled in that evening.
The perpetrator was extraordinarily mad, relying on the darkness, and the rural town was not monitored. The driver not only knocked him down, but even deliberately crushed his feet with wheels, and then walked away.
Xiang Gu fainted awake and awoken awake—his feet couldn't hold any strength, and he clung to the ground with both hands, and climbed to the side of the road as hard and as hard as possible until dawn passed by. He was rescued.
The scene was bloody. Two long bloodstains dragged on the gravel road, extending to the bones of his rotten feet.
He could have jumped out of his future with his feet-but that night, he lost his future.
His parents had disappeared for a long time because of the debt hiding. After the accident, the school leaders came to help him arrange it, and the teachers also paid for it.
His class teacher then knelt directly in front of the attending doctor, begging him to let Xiang guess.
A middle-aged man in his forties shed tears: "Doctor, he is only 16 years old. He will be a dancer in the future!"
The doctor said, "I understand your mood, but he is in a very serious condition with comminuted fracture of his feet. We will certainly try our best to treat him, but we can't guarantee anything now. If the recovery is not good, he will probably have a lifetime. I can only use a wheelchair. "
Many scenes were played before and after the operation, and Xiang Gui even cried out in his sleep.
But even more painful was rehabilitation-the boy was already thin, and in a great disaster, he lost another 20 pounds and lost weight. Every day, he kept holding his pole to practice walking. Even if he was sweating and trembling, he would never stop.
The teachers took turns to the hospital to visit the doctors and greeted them with a smile. He smiled, his jaw looked sharper, but his eyes were bright, as if washed by Chunyu.
He will tirelessly ask every teacher if he can dance ballet in the future.
The teachers touched his head and coaxed him to lie to him-but when can a lie hold up?
After Xiang Gu completed his rehabilitation, he returned to school, but his feet could no longer support him to complete high-intensity ballet training. The principal could only sadly send him to the song and dance major.
The transfer of the department was made by the head of the ballet department and talked to Guess.
To Guai watching the paper transfer notice, silent for a long time, suddenly got up and bowed to her.
"Thank you."
Then the boy straightened his back, picked up his bag, walked out of the ballet department, and went in the other direction.
The author has something to say: I want to say a lot, I still won't say it.
Hug my guess.
(In fact, the copywriting also wrote that parents are gambling, but it seems that everyone did not notice the keyword orz ...)
