The passionate musical "Equatorial Rain" has been well received by the audience and experts. I think this is an exciting drama and an important achievement of China's music creation in recent years. Lee Joon (former Vice-Chairman of China Federation of Literary and Art Circles): It's very enjoyable to watch the musical "Rain on the Equatorial Road". It is a pleasure to watch and listen, and it is really an important achievement of China's exploration of music creation. The whole play is high-spirited, atmospheric, lively, affectionate, beautiful, pleasant and moving. The play subtly reveals the strong national pride and self-confidence of the people's navy going global after China's reform, and reveals the national feelings and cultural appeal that blood is thicker than water. From the spiritual connotation, the main theme of patriotism and the national complex of the Chinese nation, the era of reform and opening up.
Liao Ben (Party Secretary of Chinese Dramatists Association): I am very excited to see this play. Magnificent and refreshing. Not only is the theme well grasped, but now the creation has reached a considerable artistic level, which looks shocking. The stage scene is magnificent and the dance beauty is outstanding, which gives people a strong feeling.
Zuo Qing (director of the Art Bureau of the Propaganda Department of the General Political Department) especially thanked the navy for producing a good work for the whole army and the whole country. Based on the development and exploration of China's original musical, the musical Rain on the Red Road is indeed a successful work, which is not only thoughtful, but also has a sense of the times and appreciation beyond my imagination. It is one of the best original musicals in China at present. How to work hard on artistry and appreciation? Let the people love to watch and let the audience like it in a market-oriented way. Our military literature and art are being studied, and the musical "Equatorial Rain" is worth learning.
Yao Xin (former deputy director and inspector of the Art Bureau of the Ministry of Culture): The musical Rain on the Equator is a very good work. Our literary and artistic works should reflect the enhancement of our comprehensive national strength and the modernization of the navy. This play is full of strong patriotism and is of great value.
Huang Qishi (former vice president and playwright of Chinese Opera): The material selection of "The Rain on the Chidao" has a strong sense of modernity, and it is the material selection for China musicals to go global. This job is very new. The patriotic feelings shown are very exciting. The structure of Sanquan Sanhang in the play is ingenious and the lyrics of the whole play are beautiful. Just like the heroine's aria by the sea, the stage of the whole drama is full of movement and commendable.
Huang (a professor and playwright at the Central Academy of Drama) likes this play very much. It's very good. Because it is masculine. The navy's global visit has spread our pride and our desire to express peace and beauty to all parts of the world. The shock it caused was enormous. This drama takes patriotism as the theme and expresses a beautiful love story, which is very meaningful. Little York's love background for Captain Pan Tianyu in the play is the patriotic feelings of overseas travelers, the yearning and nostalgia for the motherland, and the music structure is very complete.
Liu Yanjun (Director, Drama Institute, Chinese Academy of Art, Doctoral Supervisor): This play is beautiful and pleasant to listen to. The visual impact of the stage is very strong, and the superposition of screen and projection creates new associations and gives people a refreshing feeling. Group dance is full of vigor, which makes people feel optimistic and has a strong sense of rhythm. The creator blended other artistic elements, and the whole performance was very active.
Ma (Deputy Director of the Art Bureau of the Propaganda Department of the General Political Department): As a military literary work, it is a great achievement of our army to produce such an excellent musical. The first naval organization joined forces to tackle key problems, showing the modern heroic spirit and style of our navy; Second, the theme of the round-the-world visit of naval fleet chosen by the army and local literary and art workers is also an exploration of the whole army's creation; Thirdly, the theme, text and structure of the play are good, and it is full of new ideas in grasping the theme and deep excavation; Fourthly, the second creation form of the stage is beautiful, exciting and youthful.
Yibing Ouyang (Dean of China Children's Art Theatre): The audience of China's plays have a high demand for stories. Even musicals will inevitably bring more difficulties to the writers. The literary script of "Chidaoyu" has achieved several valuable points: First, it tracks the pace of the times. What is the pace of the times? In the historical process, it is difficult to grasp the psychological mood of this nation in a specific period, and the time of creation and the time of story occurrence are synchronous; Second, it reflects the relationship between national psychology and playwrights. In today's world, it's common for foreign warships to go to other countries' ports, but it's not easy for us to develop China today. The screenwriter of Rain on the Red Cross enthusiastically expressed his confidence and pride in the fate of the country and his own nation, and showed high national sentiment, which is such a unique psychological activity. Thirdly, the author did not stay in the joyful atmosphere of such a grand event that our navy went abroad, but tried to explore how much weight the profound and long-standing historical background of the story had on the balance of reality. Among them, there are two important figures, one appears and the other doesn't, namely the heroine's grandfather and mother. Both of these characters can be traced back to the fate of China navy, which makes Red Rain show its love for children in the big background, but it tells the history of a nation and has a deep sense of history, which marks the thickness of the script. As a playwright in the army, it is very rare to combine that unique historical mission with the national feelings that permeate his heart.
Ding Xiaoli (composer of the Song and Dance Troupe of the General Political Department) sincerely lamented that "it is beautiful, beautiful and shocking". Wen Dayong (Deputy Editor-in-Chief of Script Monthly) also thinks the play is very good-looking and shows its strength. Comrade Yan Su and Cao also praised the whole as "good", and Cao specifically mentioned that "the stage design, director handling and actors' performances are all very good, which is the closest to the success of musical creation in the near future".
Jiang Xiusheng (Director, Art Bureau, Propaganda Department, General Political Department): The musical "The Rain on the Chidao" has a good story and good singing and dancing, which brings great pleasure to people and is very excited after reading it. The literary script of the play has a distinct theme, and the main characters are very successful.
Wang Qing (Vice President of China Children's Art Theatre): First, the theme of Rain on the Red Road is very good; Secondly, the unique advantage of the powerful naval theme is a prerequisite for attracting others to watch; Thirdly, some arias in the play are very good, which is difficult for ordinary orchestras to do.
Huang Huilin (Professor, Art Department, Beijing Normal University): This musical is not an ordinary opera house. It has the characteristics of the army. I was shocked to see it. I sincerely wish it a masterpiece, a masterpiece. The stage of the whole drama has a grand tension, and there is also an architectural charm in it. It pursues poetry and has cultural connotations, which has certain appeal to our college students. It is very rare for the whole play to integrate various creative styles.
Wang Xiaoling (National First-Class Composer): Musical materials should be youthful and urbanized. The theme of the navy's visit is just in line with this. The selection of materials is very good, and the idea of Rain on the Red Road is beyond imagination.
Cai Ti-liang (President of China Stage Art Research Association): This play is very grand, full of vitality, with artistic weight and reserved value. The musical "equatorial rain" has high artistic value, especially on the stage, which has a sense of form and visual impact, including the director's handling, including the second creation of the stage and so on. The stage scenery uses structural devices to unify the stage space and scheduling, and the effect is not bad. Musical is really a difficult art variety. Over the years, military literary and art workers have been producing operas and musicals, which is really awesome.
Hu Zongqi (head of the Opera Troupe of the General Political Department): It is very rare for the navy to produce such a play. As a special force, the navy is more natural and unrestrained. It is very novel and beautiful to put "semaphore", a special military language, on the stage. Specific to the design of dance beauty, it is very exquisite and ingenious, which fully embodies the characteristics of musical. The beauty of the dance also has musical characteristics, especially the alternation of the lighting in the editing room and the computer room on the warship, which is very beautiful.
Wang Shuzeng (Head of the Cultural and Art Troupe of the Political Department of the Armed Police Force): The script conveys people's thoughts in three stages: the setting of grandpa actually implies the feeling of national humiliation for a hundred years, which is the feeling of history. Connecting history, present and future, the whole drama looks very heavy and can cause many associations. First of all, the theme of "equatorial rain" is very good, and the navy theme has unique advantages, so others must watch it; The second is that the actors and some arias are very good, which is difficult for ordinary orchestras to do. The stage is beautiful and generous. This play highlights the navy's primary colors, that is, blue and white, which are two clean colors, as well as pure colors and youthful colors. Throughout the play, no scene is gloomy. Even when the host howled in his heart, we still saw a transparent blue color. This includes the careful setting of the creative staff, which makes our whole party look more harmonious, and makes the style laid by the literary script more unified with the style presented on the stage, without the feeling of stripping and forcing. The main actors did very well, especially Song Zu Ying's long aria, which really felt like a western opera aria. Although it is still a folk song, it is still very touching. The key points of the whole play, the hero and heroine also completed very well, especially the stormy middle part, which was completed very well.
Liu Heping (Dance Beauty Design of the Song and Dance Troupe of the General Political Department): From a professional point of view, the dance beauty design is still very successful and very atmospheric. The stage is skillfully used, and several high and low platforms not only represent the things on the ship, but also are used in the sense of height of urban buildings and docks. The means are very clever. Moreover, the stage of the exhibition is also very beautiful, typical of the environment after the opening, but not cumbersome, giving people a beautiful and attractive feeling. At the same time, it provides many uneven performance fulcrums for actors, and provides many good fulcrums for the scheduling of actors and the development of the plot. The dance beauty of this play is difficult to design, because it is on the boat and in the city. How can we achieve a unified, generous and changeable style? The beauty of this play really takes a lot of effort. The big scene is beautiful, and the stage techniques are rich and varied. Generally speaking, the beauty dance is very successful. In terms of music and stage performances, music as a whole is verve and gorgeous.
Huang Dingshan (Director of Drama Department of PLA Art College): If our solo or solo can reach the level of the musical Rain on the Red Road, it will be a very high step, which is a qualitative change. Musical, an art form, is extremely important in expression, whether it is the elements of music or drama. The theme of navy is the most suitable material for musicals. Because the navy's visit can show the atmosphere and beauty.
Wang Jian (screenwriter of the Air Political Art Troupe): The evaluation of Rain on the Red Road cannot be based on this drama, nor can it be viewed in legionary teleplay's creative system, but should be investigated and demonstrated in the big category of the origin, process and exploration of China's original musical. Once this positioning is released, the play will be of great value, because it has made great contributions to China's musicals. At the same time, due to the limitations of military theme creation itself, musicals are unfamiliar to China, and it is not easy to find such a breakthrough from military themes. Therefore, the success of Equatorial Jade in the creation of legionary teleplay in China is very prominent. From the perspective of the openness of military themes, Red Rain not only goes out of the military camp, but also blends into the modern era, allowing military life and social life to cross, so as to explore the social value and social significance of soldiers, as well as the recognition, understanding and integration of society itself to soldiers. So equatorial rain is the unity of openness, modernity and fashion. Its spiritual field is modern and very fashionable. Our legionary teleplay tends to avoid fashion and emphasize the promotion of the main theme and its political significance. Its fashion and appreciation are our weaknesses. And "Chi Daoyu" is just on this. It has made a deliberate exploration, made a successful breakthrough, and made up for the shortcomings of our military works in this respect. Especially in the form of musical, its fashion and appreciation are deeply impressed and branded.
In a word, experts believe that Rain of the Red Cross is "new" at first, which expands the field of military themes and is also a new way of China's original musical. Its territory is new and strange, and it has never been shown. What is presented to us is a new picture of life, both material and spiritual. The second is "odd", which is legendary in China and captures the audience; The third is "strong", which has a strong feeling from the visual and auditory senses; The fourth is "beauty". Some music passages are beautiful and give people a pleasing feeling. At present, there are many other musicals in China that criticize that China can't engage in musicals, so the appearance of Rain Falling Red Forks is gratifying.
