《续琵琶》是清初曹寅创作的一部昆曲作品,距今已有三百年的历史。剧作蕴含了深刻的思想内涵和较高的艺术水准,遗憾的是,未能在舞台上保留下来。北方昆曲剧院根据曹寅的原作创作并演出了昆曲《续琵琶》,对原作的主题作出更为深刻、更具张力的阐释,打造了一部具有新意的作品。 “Continued pipa” was a piece of Kunqu opera written by Cao Yin in the early Qing Dynasty, dating back more than three centuries. Drama contains a deep ideological content and high artistic standards, unfortunately, failed to retain on the stage. According to Cao Yin’s original works, Northern Kunqu Opera Theater created and performed the Kunqu Opera “sequel” to make a deeper and more tense interpretation of the theme of the original work and create a novel work.
