中国古典舞表演擅长人物形象的塑造,但又不同于戏剧的表演。戏剧表演是通过生活化的语言、表情、动作来表现的;而舞蹈则是通过节律化的身体动态动势,表现出人物内心的情感,达到传情达意、感动观众的目的。作品《七步》正是把历史上大家耳熟能详的故事,表述为情节事件展开时空;而把舞蹈人物的“心理时空”通过细密的手法处理,让它外化,呈现出内心世界。在这个作品的情节展开过程中,我们联想到人物所产生的内心活动(包括回忆、幻觉、潜意识等),并以直观的舞蹈样式外化出来,而这个外化出来的意象,就是我们常常认识到的,表演中的最重要的表现方式之一,也是刻画舞蹈人物性格、揭示人物深层情感的关键手段之一。 Chinese classical dance performance good at the characterization of the image, but different from theatrical performances. Theatrical performances are expressed through the language, expression and movement of life. Dance, on the other hand, is characterized by the rhythmic dynamic movements of the body to show the emotions of the characters and achieve the purpose of conveying the feelings and touching the audience. The “Seven Steps” is a story that has been well-known in history. It expresses the space-time for the plot events. The “psychological space-time” of the dance figures is treated through meticulous methods to make it externalized and the inner world appears. In the process of plotting this work, we think of the inner activities (including memories, hallucinations, subconsciousness, etc.) of the characters and externalize them in an intuitive dance style. This externalized image is what we often recognize To one of the most important performance in performance, but also one of the key means to characterize the character of the dance and reveal the deep emotions of the characters.
