Chapter 253
the next morning.

Qu Xiaoyun and Qin Xiaoxian accompanied Guo Degang to see a few students of the Dragon Characters Department, and drove back to the Beijing Rose Garden in the afternoon.

Three days later, the performance of the Qilin Theater Club began.

Backstage of Kylin Drama Club.

The decoration of the drama club is very particular, revealing the antique style of Liyuan.

The reason why it was named Qilin Drama Club was not named after Da Linzi, but because of Mr. Zhou, the "Kirin Boy".Guo Degang’s apprenticeship is also from the Qi School. The original intention of the establishment is because he likes to sing operas, and the second is to find a place for his godson Tao Yang to sing operas. After all, Tao Yang has a talent for singing operas. .No troupe can make money from selling tickets.State-run theater troupes with a business establishment rely on finances, while private theater troupes earn their living by going to temple fairs and singing weddings and funerals.

The third is to gain credibility. In the Peking opera prodigy incident, it was also to stop those who opened their mouths to prove that they did not delay their children.

But now, with the growing reputation of Deyun Society, the development of short online videos, and the popularity of national style, the situation has gradually reversed. From the very beginning, it lost 80 yuan a month, and after a few months, it was forced to stop performing. Tao Yang went to the theater Speaking of cross talk, the tickets are sold out so far, and this is inseparable from the efforts of every actor in the Qilin Theater Club.

Now can be said to be the hottest time, especially in the short video some time ago, five ordinary Peking opera girls became popular, two Hua Dan, one Mei Pai Tsing Yi, one Cheng Pai Tsing Yi, and one Lao Dan. The adaptation of the song into an opera created a craze.

No, most of the audience in the theater today are younger brothers and younger sisters. They entered and waited half an hour before the opening, and the audience was almost full before the opening.

Today there are two fold plays, namely "Jigong Biography" and "Famen Temple".

The actors participating in the backstage show are all dressed up now. Guo Degang is wearing a monk's attire, and he will play the role of Monk Guangliang in a while, and he will be drinking warm water.

The drinking area is very interesting.

Every actor is different. Drinking venues generally drink hot water, and some drink very hot water. Mr. Shang, one of the four famous actors, has to drink boiling water. The kettle is placed on the stove. It's hot and hot.

Mr. Li, a master of Peking Opera, drinks ice cold for nothing, and those who drink cold can sing the same.

There are also some actresses who drink a glass of milk to soak a piece of American ginseng, and some old gentlemen drink a spoonful of sesame oil before going on stage, so that their throats will always be so oily and not so dry.

Some drink white wine and feel a sore throat after drinking it; some drink cold beer; After stimulating the voice, sing a little louder.

If you run into an actor drinking water in one gulp after another in the backstage, it will be an expression of nervousness, and it won't work at all when it really happens.

Encountering special circumstances, the throat is noisy, sometimes the head can't make a sound, and can't say a word. There are also folk remedies in the troupe. I come to two preserved eggs and smash them in a big tea pot. Take boiling water, and some use rice wine. Stir it in, and some people will find it effective after drinking it, but if it is only for one night, it will have to be treated the next day.

As the saying goes, children have no voice and customers have no capital, and Liyuan children who do not make a sound are like doing business without capital, so actors pay great attention to protecting their voices.

It’s a bit worse now, not like in the past, where there are small microphones under the collar in every performance now, some actors wear two or even three, and you can be rude with others in the backstage, but you are especially polite with the sound engineer.

this will……

Yu Qian was wearing a phoenix crown and Xiapei, preparing for the second play. He was smoking a cigarette and chatting about what to eat after the show.

They also pay attention to eating when singing operas. Before the troupe starts to perform, for example, when the opera starts at [-] o'clock in the evening, they don't eat before [-] o'clock.

It’s easy to understand because it’s easy to sing because it’s full of blows and hunger. Those who play the suona must be full. Sometimes it doesn’t work if you’re too hungry, and you’re prone to hypoglycemia if you exert all your strength on stage, and you’ll die if you faint on stage.

Therefore, some actors generally eat two eggs and cut a few slices of sauced beef before going on stage. Of course, this is not fixed. Mr. Mei, a famous Peking opera artist, must eat steak before going on stage. After eating two steaks, he feels energetic. After eating the steak, he goes backstage to eat it. Small apples, cut into pieces, moisten the throat one by one.

Anyway, everyone is different, so it’s certain that you can’t eat and drink too much. After the show, this meal is a serious meal. The garden actors in the old days took a shower when they got home. Serve hot tea. At 01:30 in the night, there is a table of frying, frying, frying, stewing, and stewing. People who drop by come one after another. After serving the wine, they start eating, drinking, and chatting until five o’clock in the morning. Frying at home Fried dough sticks, after eating fried dough sticks and drinking tofu, I fell asleep.

Before Mr. Yu sang opera, he also had his own special food, eating stewed stew. This is his favorite. He always eats stewed stew on his wedding day. He is studying to eat hot pot after the performance.

Tao Yang can also play this part, shouting his voice, and other participating actors are also making preparations, and the backstage is orderly.

Qu Xiaoyun and Qin Xiaoxian also came to watch the performance today as scheduled, fearing being recognized by the audience would affect their performance on stage, so they dressed up and sat in the corner of the auditorium.

In a blink of an eye the show begins.

Hou Ye took square steps and came to the stage to announce the curtain with a smile on his face.

Amid the warm applause from the audience, Tao Yang (decorated as Hu Lai) came onto the stage holding an actress (decorated as a paper figure) with stiff movements, shouting "Baby" in his mouth, and put the paper figure on the bed.

After a while, Guo Degang (played as monk Guangliang) came out to test whether Tao Yang had acted according to his instructions.

The plot is very interesting. It is taken from the stand-up comic "Jigong Biography". It is about the monk Guangliang of Lingyin Temple who has a nephew named Hu Lai. If you spend the money indiscriminately and don't marry a wife, you will no longer support it in the future.

Hu Lai agreed, but he had no intention of marrying a daughter-in-law, so he squandered the money. When his uncle came, he was stupid. In order to fool him, he tied a paper man and put it on the bed to pretend that his daughter-in-law was sick. Let uncle go at a glance.

Monk Guangliang felt that something was wrong, and wanted Hu Lai's wife to agree. The case was about to be solved, but at the very moment, the paper figurine made a sound of "Ou" and fooled Monk Guangliang away.

Monk Guangliang left, Hu Lai was stupid, the person who gave the paper was named "Sister Ou", but in fact it was the person who attached the paper with a soul, and he wanted to use him to help Hu Lai.

The whole play was very interesting, and the audience in the audience laughed again and again. The atmosphere on the scene was extremely joyful. The actress who played the paper doll imitated the paper doll very vividly, and her basic skills were extremely solid.

Not to mention Guo Degang and Tao Yang's performance, their facial expressions, movements and singing skills are all very good. Qu Xiaoyun and Qin Xiaoxian are both fascinated and like it very much.
