摘要
轻喜剧《妈,爸,我和白人女孩同居了》是加拿大华裔作家陈泽桓的成名作,它通过表现跨种族婚恋着重探讨了年轻一代加拿大华人在追寻文化身份时的困惑。该剧采用剧中剧结构对美国漫画书《黄爪》进行了模拟,既解构了人们心目中陈旧的华人模式化形象,又揭示了新的华人模式化形象,这些模式化形象对华人融入主流社会造成阻碍。陈泽桓并不是仅仅描写加拿大华裔青年的身份困惑,同时也通过男主人公马克最后的选择对加拿大华裔青年的未来进行了展望,暗示只有打破东/西方二元对立的思维模式,吸取中、西双方文化的长处,才能找到属于自己的道路。
Describing the dilemma Chinese Canadian youth face in inter-racial romances,Chinese Canadian writer Marty Chan's signature play Mom,Dad,I'm Living with a White Girl shows their perplexity in pursuing cultural identity.By mimicking American comic series Yellow Claw,this play not only deconstructs the old stereotypes of Chinese,but also reveals that the newly emerging stereotypes have hindered Chinese Canadian youth from blending into the mainstream society.The male protagonist's choice in the end suggests that only by discarding the dichotomy of East vs.West and drawing merits from both,can young Chinese Canadians find their own way.In this light,Chan's play looks into the future of Chinese Canadian youth.
