今天GJXX小編搜羅了北京世青國際學校初中部學生演繹經(jīng)典傳說《阿拉丁神燈》希望給擇校的家長們提供參考。

《阿拉丁神燈》作為1992年聞名遐邇的迪士尼同名動畫電影及2019年真人翻拍的經(jīng)典劇目，它講述了一個孤兒無意中發(fā)現(xiàn)了一盞具有非凡力量的神燈，從而改變其人生歷程的故事。 

Well known as the titular protagonist of the 1992 Disney animated film and the 2019 live-action remake, Aladdin tells the story of an orphan boy, who inadvertently discovers a magic lamp with extraordinary powers, and from then the entire course of his life is altered unchangeably.  

11月26日上周五，在世青戲劇組Paul Collins老師的精心指導和全體演職人員的共同努力下，我校初中部學生成功地重新演繹了出自劇作家James Norris之手的1940年版《阿拉丁神燈》。本周，我們邀請到Paul Collins老師來聊一聊這場演出臺前幕后的故事。

Last Friday, our high-achieving middle school students and the wise and sometimes genie-like BWYA drama teacher Mr. Paul Collins put on a production of the 1940 version of the play by James Norris. This week, we spoke with Collins, to find out why he put so much of his time and energy into this extra-curricular performance.

Macbeth

“去年我校九年級學生演繹了《麥克白》。在當時，這對于那個年齡段的孩子來說已經(jīng)是一個艱巨的挑戰(zhàn)。但今年，我們大膽地決定為大家呈現(xiàn)一部屬于初中部學生的精彩演出，讓六至八年級的學生也有機會站在戲劇的舞臺上。在此次參演的十八名演員中，有十一位都來自六年級。此外，我們面向整個初中部公開征集后臺助理，多達八十名志愿者踴躍報名并參與了燈光、音響、布景、服裝和化妝等幕后工作?！?/p>

“Last year we did Macbeth with Grade 9 which was already ambitious for their age, but this year we decided to do an entire middle school show, so it was a really awesome challenge opening it up to the sixth, seventh and eighth grades. 11 out of the 18 actors were from the sixth grade, and as well as this, we opened up helping out backstage to anyone who was interested. 80 students signed up to help with lighting and sound, scenery, and costumes and makeup.” 

         

為了呈現(xiàn)最完美的效果，我們的幕后團隊在每周一放學后都要進行緊鑼密鼓的準備工作。而小演員們則在每周三、周四和周五進行不間斷的排練。當被問到這場演出能為參與者帶來哪些收獲時，Paul Collins老師與我們娓娓道來： “我認為，這場演出更像是一門專業(yè)課。在此之前，學生并不了解如何操控燈光、穿戴戲服和舞臺布景。但是，他們卻始終保持高漲的學習熱情，不斷地團結(jié)協(xié)作，最終克服了各種阻礙與困難。讓我們回到你的問題核心，‘學生將如何從中獲益？’我覺得他們最大的收獲是學會了如何合作?；蛟S在未來這些孩子中的一些人會成為演員或從事這個行業(yè)相關的工作，但他們一定已經(jīng)懂得如何在集體中與他人合作。而對于年輕一代來說，這也是一個摒棄以自我為中心的意識，努力達到全面發(fā)展的好機會?！?/p>

In order to put this production together, the support team met together every Monday after school, with the cast rehearsing on Wednesdays, Thursdays and Fridays. We asked Collins about the benefit of the production to the students involved, “It was basically a class, the students had no previous knowledge of how to run a lightboard, costume an actor, or run a set, but as a little army they worked out how to deal with these challenges. It was very ambitious on my part, but as far as the question goes, ‘Why is it beneficial for these students?’, for me the biggest thing is working together in a group. That’s the thing we’re trying to do, I don’t know if you’re going to run off one day as an actor, but I can definitely make sure you know how to work as part of a whole, especially for some of the younger students learning to be less self-centred, and develop as people.” 

在訪談的尾聲，我們又聚焦在新的話題上：從學習和發(fā)展的角度來看，與單一的學術(shù)性小組活動相比，舞臺劇表演具有哪些優(yōu)勢？Paul Collins老師分析道：“我看到孩子們變得更加專注和努力，并慢慢地意識到自己是舞臺的主導者。我會提供一切幫助，但我更希望學生可以發(fā)自內(nèi)心地去享受這個過程。我經(jīng)常告訴孩子們——你們才是舞臺上真正的主角。有志者，事竟成。唯有全力以赴，這個舞臺才會星光熠熠，而你也將收獲滿滿的成就感?！?/p>

Finally, the conversation moved onto the benefits of staging shows and performances, compared to purely academic-based group work, “I saw kids learn more focus, how to concentrate more, put more effort in, and ultimately realise they’ll be the ones on the stage! I’ll do everything I can to help, but I wanted them to own it themselves. It’s not my show, maybe I’ll get some credit or blame, but I said to the students ‘You’re the ones up there!’. If you don’t put the effort in, it won’t be good, but if you do, it’ll be an amazing show, and you’ll get that feeling of accomplishment.” 

由初中部學生再現(xiàn)的《阿拉丁神燈》以引人入勝的故事情節(jié)、美輪美奐的舞臺效果和無與倫比的精彩表演征服了在場觀眾，為在校師生帶來了豐富愉悅的藝術(shù)體驗。同時，貼心的工作人員還為超過三百名因疫情防控而無法入校的家長開啟了現(xiàn)場直播服務。如果你還沒看過癮，那么不妨通過下面的短片再次重溫《阿拉丁神燈》的精彩時刻，我們也期待在未來向大家展示更多別出心裁的學生才藝表演。

Having watched the excellent performance ourselves, it's clear to see the students followed Collins' advice, and we'd like to praise them for putting together such a wondrous showing, inviting the audience to join them in their magical world. Both the primary and middle school screenings were well-enjoyed by our students and teachers, and it was great to see over 300 parents joining the livestream despite being unable to join us physically. We hope you will enjoy this unworthy highlight reel, and we look forward to sharing more drama, musicals, and talent with you in the future.
