上世纪六十年代初,时任国务院副总理兼外交部长的陈毅元帅对中国戏剧工作有过几次讲话,提出了许多十分中肯的意见。这几次讲话有的当时已公开发表了,有的只作内部文件传达。1961年3月22日在中南海紫光阁举行的戏曲编导工作座谈会上的讲话, 是当时广东省委内部传达的,未知后来是否曾公开发表。现在,从讲话的内容来看很有针对性,对当前我们的戏剧改革工作仍有十分切实的指导意义。本刊特子刊登,供大家参考。 In the early 1960s, Marshal Chen Yi, then Vice Premier and Foreign Minister of the State Council, made several speeches on Chinese drama and put forward many very pertinent comments. Some of these speeches were made public at the time, and some were only communicated internally. On March 22, 1961, a speech at the symposium on the work of opera directors at Ziguang Pavilion in Zhongnanhai was conducted within Guangdong Provincial Party Committee at that time and was later published in an unknown manner. Now, from the point of view of the content of the speech, it is very specific and still has very practical guidance for our current drama reform.
