肖苏华“现代舞剧”创作启示

The Revelation of Xiao Suhua's Pursuit of “Chinese Modern Dance Drama”

本文以肖苏华的"红白系列剧"为分析对象,穿插对中国舞剧创作的缺失进行反思,引发培养怎样的舞剧创作型人才的思考。作为一名教师,肖苏华从芭蕾教学转型为编导教学;作为一名编导,肖苏华从"交响编舞"转型为"当代编舞";作为一名学者,肖苏华从芭蕾研究转型为现代舞剧的应用理论剖析,他的确有颇多建树值得书写。笔者认为,在他诸多理论创新中,对治疗中国舞剧幼弱性病症最有价值的是舞剧创作的"结构论"和"陌生化"理论等,这也是我们在培养主体性舞剧创造人才过程中必须面对的核心问题之一。

As a teacher of BDA,Professor Xiao Suhua turns his role from teaching ballet to choreography; as a choreographer,he turns his artistic concept from＂symphonic choreography＂to＂contemporary choreography＂; as a scholar,he turns his theoretical study from ballet to the application theory of modern dance drama. The dance drama＂structure theory＂and the theory of＂defamiliarization＂are the most valuable creative methods among his varied dance theoretical achievements,which could benefit pre-modern Chinese dance drama. This article attempts to take Professor Xiao＇s dance drama series Dreams of Red Mansions and White Snake as the main analysis objects,and explores the deficiency of the Chinese dance drama,aiming to inspire us to consider the importance of educating creative talents of Chinese dance drama.
