音樂劇的發中文展 與未來 主講: 謝淑文
何謂音樂劇 概括地說,音樂劇是以簡單故事情節 為支撐,以演員戲劇表演為根基,使音 樂與舞蹈發揮潛能,將這些表演藝術 整合為統一體的藝術形式.
音樂劇型態: 音樂貫穿整齣戲: 如 MISS SAIGON, LES MISERABLES, EVITA 欣賞重點:1. 作曲家如何巧妙地將口語對白化為有調性的音樂,並可與歌劇的詠 嘆調作聯想. 2. 演員如何將配上音樂的口白巧妙地演出來,如何讓觀眾在 看這一段戲時看到戲,而非僅僅聽到美妙的歌聲而已.一個好的作品應該是用聽 的就可以了解劇情的
音樂穿插於口白中: 如 CHICAGO, RENT, JEKYLL AND HYDE 欣賞重點:1. 作曲家如何巧妙地將音樂插入對白之中,整個TIMING,導火線用的如 何? 2. 劇作家如何將對白接到歌曲,如何從歌曲回到對白而不顯矯 情? 3. 演員如何巧妙地從對白順利移轉情緒與聲音到歌曲中? 如 何在曲子結束後”找理由” 回到對白中.這中間的一分一秒是劇中最可貴也最 具殺傷力的時刻,一旦掌握不佳將使整齣戲的timing與tempo亂調,連帶演出品質 也將受到影響.

MISS SAIGON: PLEASE Kim: Yes. Yes, I know. I know how pain can grow when the rock you hold onto is a love miles away. Listen, please, I already know this story. Take us to the USA. John: When we're finished here you'll see him. Chris arrived with me today. Kim: Oh, Tam, he's here! He's here, he's so near we might breathe the same air tonight! Your father's here! O Tam it's true. My dream was right. You'll see him soon. Please, can't you see we've been watched over as we've crossed the wildest seas. Even God wants us together, can I end this journey, please?
LES MISERABLES: ON MY OWN And now I'm all alone again, Nowhere to turn, no one to go to. Without a home, without a friend, Without a face to say hello to. And now the night is near, Now I can make believe he's here. Sometimes I walk alone at night When everybody else is sleeping. I think of him, and then I'm happy With the company I'm keeping. The city goes to bed, And I can live inside my head. On my own, Pretending he's beside me. All alone, I walk with him till morning. Without him, I feel his arms around me, And when I lose my way I close my eyes And he has found me. In the rain, The pavement shines like silver. All the lights Are misty in the river. In the darkness, The trees are full of starlight, And all I see is him and me for ever and forever. And I know It's only in my mind, That I'm talking to myself And not to him. And although I know that he is blind, Still I say, There's a way for us. I love him, But when the night is over, He is gone, The river's just a river. Without him, The world around me changes. The trees are bare and everywhere The streets are full of strangers. I love him, But every day I'm learning, All my life, I've only been pretending! Without me, His world will go on turning, A world that's full of happiness That I have never known! I love him... I love him... I love him... But only on my own...
