剧场的绝对魅力
在于它的现场性
它的浪漫在于
它是生命
短暂与无常的缩影
— 赖声川
我喜欢剧场，喜欢易卜生和契诃夫，喜欢赖声川，也喜欢音乐剧。喜欢坐在剧场里面，在漆黑的座位里看见台上所有的梦幻瞬间，也喜欢在剧场里的创作。在一个空的空间里的创作，有着极为鲜活的生命力和无限的可能性。所有的意义都被演出者和观众所赋予，所有的光和声所有的幻象都发生在且仅发生在这个空间里。每一次的表演都是在当下的，每一次的创作都是鲜活的。在剧场里创作，对于我而言无疑是令人兴奋且幸福的。
在新加坡的那几年周围有一帮一样喜欢戏剧的朋友。从2012年开始一边跟他们混一边自己也开始在剧场里的创作。那几年前前后后做过导演和演员，改过剧本，学着设计舞台和调灯，也在幕后搬过道具。下面这几部是我在 King Edward VII Hall 中文戏剧和他们一起参与的剧目和演出。
- 我和我和他和他 (2019) - 艺术指导
- 暗恋桃花源 (2018) - 艺术指导
- 罗慕路斯大帝 (2017) - 主演 · 副导演
- 乱民全讲 (2016) - 副导演
- 社会支柱 (2015) - 导演 · 剧本改编 · 舞台设计
- 十三角关系 (2014) - 副导演 · 群演
后来到了美国念书的时候顺便也上了一点表演课。后面搬到西雅图，在疫情之后，认识了云的朋友们，又开心地重新回到了剧场。
Life’s but a walking shadow, a poor player,
That struts and frets his hour upon the stage,
And then is heard no more.
— Shakespeare. Macbeth: Act V, Scene V.

While I was working on my master’s degree in CMU, I secretly took an acting class in the Drama School. After graduation, I moved to Seattle area during the pandemic period. In 2023, I met Christie, Kikyou, and a group of talented and professional artists, and they introduced me to Yun Theatre and a number of vibrant theatre companies and groups in the PNW area. Here is a list of productions I participated in Seattle.
