二十世纪真是一个奇妙的时代:当人们还在相互提醒和议论“现在是二十世纪”(意即要有“现代意识”)时,这个世纪却已在悄悄地向人类告别了。二十一世纪已非遥远的未来,而是伸手即可触摸到的“明天”。但人类到二十一世纪究竟会怎样,谁也说不清楚——戏剧也是如此。戏剧会灭亡吗?在现代艺术的竞争中戏剧会被淘汰吗?戏剧会失去最后一个青年观众吗?新世纪会诞生一种新戏剧吗?它将是什么样子?它需要什么条件和土壤?我们为 The twentieth century is truly a fantastic period: when people are reminding each other and talking about “Now is the twentieth century” (meaning to have “modern consciousness”), this century has quietly bid farewell to mankind. The twenty-first century is not a distant future but a “tomorrow” that can be reached by hand. But what will happen to mankind in the 21st century? No one knows yet - as is drama. Will the drama die out? Will the drama be eliminated in the competition of modern art? Will the drama lose the last young audience? Will a new drama be born in the new century? What will it look like? What conditions and soil will it require? for
