2016年11月12日,有幸看了以色列盖谢尔剧院的“镇院之宝”《乡村》。该剧以一个傻子——或者说是一个永远天真的少年的视角,讲述1942年间巴勒斯坦地区一个犹太乡村中发生的种种生活琐事。整台戏以荒诞的表现方式,举重若轻地展现着过去那段沉重的历史,并至始自终都散发着以色列这个国家、犹太这个民族的气质。平淡写实与荒诞疏离乍看之下,《乡村》应该是一部乱七八糟的荒诞戏剧。跳跃的时点和空间,拟人化的动物,与剧情线近乎格格不 On November 12, 2016, I was fortunate enough to read “Townhouse”, “Village” at the Geisel Theater in Israel. From the perspective of a fool, or a naive teenager, the play tells the story of all the things that happened in a Jewish village in the Palestinian territories of 1942. The entire play, with its absurd performance, shows its heavy history in the past and exudes the temperament of this nation, the Jewish nation, from beginning to end. Plain and realistic and absurd alienation At first glance, “Village” should be a mess of absurd drama. Time and space to jump, anthropomorphic animals, and the plot line almost out of tune
