天津近代的堂会属于市场规则主导下的纯粹的经营活动:演员在堂会演出中不仅获得了丰厚的经济回报,而且借名角同台演出切磋技艺提高了表演水平;堂会主人借堂会的影响力扩大了声望、提高了人气;观众则欣赏到了高水平的演出。堂会对于天津演出市场在近代的形成与发展起到了一定的促进作用。但由于堂会主办者的特殊地位与身份,他们在催生与扩大堂会演出市场的同时,也在一定程度上伤害了艺人和艺术。 Tianjin Modern Church belongs to purely business activities under the guidance of the market rules: not only did the performers receive a generous financial return from the performance of the church, but also leveled their skills through performances on the same stage to enhance performances; The influence expands the prestige, enhances the popularity; The audience appreciates the high level performance. The church will play a certain role in promoting the formation and development of the Tianjin performance market in the modern era. However, due to the special status and identity of the organizers, they also hurt the artists and the arts to a certain extent while giving birth to and expanding the market performance of the church.
