“街头性”与“戏剧性”——论抗战戏剧运动中的街头剧

Street Style and Dramaticism——On the Street Performance in the Drama Movement of Anti-Japanese War

街头剧体现了"街头性"与"戏剧性"两种思维,是一种具有自身独立品格的戏剧类型,具有"似真似伪"的美学特征。抗战期间的街头剧在题材选取、人物安排及剧情设置上具有强烈的现实化、生活化和"街头性"特征;大多采用的是一种"戏中戏"的叙事模式;具有"开放性"的结构特征;吸收了歌舞、说唱等多种街头文艺形式。从艺术上讲,抗战街头剧是粗糙的,这主要体现在人物类型化、重复性叙事及对文学"戏剧性"的忽视等方面;其成功之处主要在于对"剧场""戏剧性"的充分挖掘,一是对街头文化的充分利用,二是对"似真似伪"的"现实即艺术"原则的运用。

Street performance is a type of dram with its own independent character and aesthetic characteristics of the likeness of"truth and falsehood",which embodies two kinds of thinking:street style and dramaticism.During the anti-Japanese war,street performance had a strong characteristics of realism,life style and"street style"in theme selection,character arrangement and plot setting.Most of them adopt a narrative mode of"play within play",have the structural characteristic of"openness"and absorb other street art forms of singing and dancing,talking and singing.Artistically speaking,street performances of resistance against Japanese aggression are rough,which is mainly reflected in typological characters,repetitive narration and neglect of literature"dramaticism".Its success mainly lies in the full exploration of"theater"and"dramaticism".One is the full use of street culture,and the other is the application of the likeness of"truth and falsehood"principle that"the reality is art".
