Mr. Mei Lanfang has spent nearly 6 spring and autumn periods on the stage. It is difficult to tell the exact number of plays he has performed. I had the honor of sorting out a large amount of materials collected by Mr. Mei, and only made a preliminary sorting out from the materials I saw, such as plays, brochures, posters and special issues. There are about 167 plays in his early, middle and late public performances, and of course there will be more than that. Below, the names of the plays performed by Mr. Mei and the roles played in the plays are written in different categories for reference.
(1) Most of the traditional operas performed by Mr. Mei Lanfang are formal Tsing Yi operas, all of which were performed in his early years. Some of them played supporting roles in the operas, and some of them were still performed in the middle period, and some of them were performed abroad. 2. I like Mei Lanfang's 3-word composition.
Since I was born, there is nothing I can admire.
But that time, I was shocked by learning the text Mei Lanfang ... Mei Lanfang was born in 1894 and died in 1961. She was one of the most outstanding performing artists in Beijing Opera. He, Cheng Yanqiu, Shang Xiaoyun and Xun Huisheng are also called "four famous Peking Opera".
After learning this text, I not only learned an amazing story, but also learned the touching story of the famous Peking Opera artist's struggle with the Japanese and learned Mei Lanfang's strong patriotic thought and lofty national integrity. Mei Lanfang is really a great man in my eyes! Shortly after the outbreak of War of Resistance against Japanese Aggression in 1937, the Japanese invited Mei Lanfang to perform for them with ulterior motives.
as long as he agrees to perform on stage, all luxury life will be at his fingertips. However, he is dismissive of these, and he is unwilling and impossible to whitewash the Japanese.
He would rather have a bowl of rice, a little canned food or a small piece of salted fish for every meal, and he would rather face the bombs whizzing overhead all the time in fear than have the national integrity as a person in China. Although he regarded art as his life, he did not hesitate to give way to national integrity at the critical moment of national survival.
A famous artist, in order to break the Japanese puppet's wishful thinking, did not hesitate to hurt his body. After learning this text, I understand a truth: "No matter how big your family is, it is also a small matter. No matter how small your country is, it is also a big matter."
After two pieces of Mei Lanfang's text, I was deeply moved by Mei Lanfang's patriotic spirit, so it reminded me of a short story about Mei Lanfang. One day, Mr. Wang taught Mei Lanfang to practice skipping.
Mr. Wu moved a moving stool with a brick on it, and asked Mei Lanfang to stand on the brick on stilts more than half a meter long, and asked him to stand for a while and not to rest in the middle. At first, Mei Lanfang was very flustered when he stood at such a high place. He just persisted and even his legs were swollen.
Later, after he made progress, he tried his best to make himself a by going up one flight of stairs. Water an ice rink in winter and walk on stilts. You often fall black and blue.
But every time he falls, he gets up and continues to practice. Mei Lanfang, how he made progress despite difficulties! As long as he can practice and skip work, he can endure no matter how great the pain is! Mei Lanfang's spirit of making progress despite difficulties, as he famously said: I am a clumsy artist, without sufficient talent, I rely on hard work. 3. A story about Mei Lanfang
