乡村的夜晚亮了
乡村也有舞台了!山野的风奔走相告,把消息传遍一草一木。绿意盈盈的梦破壳而出,殷实起来的日子,有了自己的歌声和舞姿。
摆弄柴米油盐的手,采摘茶叶弯曲的腰,刚洗尽泥土换上平跟鞋的脚啊,在瓦亮瓦亮的灯光下,卸下羞涩,以另一种姿势抒情。
高枧乡是台州三门县乡镇企业发展最早的乡镇之一。经济富裕了,但文化生活一直没跟上。特别是一到晚上,村民们不是聚众打麻将玩扑克,就是聚在一起喝酒聊天。“如果我们像城里人那样,自己组织个歌唱团、舞蹈队,每天晚上一起来唱唱跳跳,自娱自乐怎么样?”郑跃的想法立即得到同样喜爱文艺的郑尚其、郑建华的积极响应。
2009年初,由郑跃、郑尚其、郑建华三人组织并发起的“艺术团”,正式拉开了序幕。
郑跃经营的商店门口,是一条宽约五六米的人行道,不远处就是乡里的一个大花坛。他们自掏腰包花了1万多元,买来音响、话筒和电视机放在屋檐下,开始摆地摊找乐子。
“因为活动场所在乡里的中心花坛边,盛夏的时候,来乘凉的群众很多。最先是我们自己几个人唱,然后家里人也来一起娱乐,再接下来是周边厂里和村里的人也来唱,越来越多的人参与进来,一些妇女还自发在旁边跳起了排舞。”郑跃比划着给我们讲起了高枧乡草根大舞台的发展史。
“‘自由唱’‘练地摊’容易组织,但不是长久之计。在表演中娱乐,更要在娱乐中享受,我们要有一个像样的大舞台。”团长郑尚其经营着一家企业,但他对草根大舞台投入的精力比企业还多。“只要有大型演出,我们都会把工厂的事情先放一下,或交代给其他人处理。”
2010年7月,在郑尚其的号召下,该乡20多名爱好文艺的办厂经商能人陆续加入到“草根大舞台”民间业余艺术团当中。根据需要,他们自费采购了音响、灯光设备、服装、道具等,并在高枧中心花坛上搭建了一个60平方米的钢结构大舞台。“到目前我们仅购买设备就花了30多万元。”
现在,这个舞台已经成了高枧乡老百姓心目中的“星光大道”。每逢集市日的晚上,这里乐声荡漾、人流如织,群众可以随时自编自导自演“土戏”,登台演出过的群众多达几千人次,周边20多个村的村民都会来观看。
不为其他,就是喜欢
设备有了,节目怎么编排呢?
郑士美是当地一家企业的负责人,也是团里两大编导之一。他介绍,节目编排都是一步步摸索着来的。每场都录了像,每次演出完了都会点评节目。“我们还有一些群众评委,经常给我们提意见和建议。”团里另一个编导就是郑建华,只要灵感来了,郑建华编起节目来不分时间。有一次在昆明出差,半夜睡不着的他当晚就编好了一部《相亲》小品。“我们有些年纪大点的团友,不识字,但文艺细胞挺足。只要把节目想要传递的意思告诉他们,过几天保准能给你一个惊喜。”
“上次那个节目《酒驾》,用我们老百姓的身边事来阐述‘开车不喝酒,喝酒不开车’的规矩。重阳节演出的自编小品《和谐家庭》,既乐了观众,也很好地宣传了农村家庭敬老爱幼美德,群众反映非常好。”村民郑士积说。
负责灯光的郑尚楼,同样自家有工厂,之前没这方面经验的他,每次演出时,都在现场观摩。“我主要是看灯光效果,哪个节目、哪个时段的灯光要亮、要暗或变化要多,看多了,心里就有底了。”
“这,是咱老百姓的舞台。”晚会的节目主持人、村民郑喜红谈起参与活动的感受时说。郑喜红一家子都参与艺术团的活动。她是主持人,公公负责服装,老公当司机,孩子没人带,演出时带着,有时也上台露一手。自家有工厂,遇到演出就停工。“我们好些团友都有厂子或其他工作,演出多了,难免有影响。我们都坚持着,不图啥,纯是喜欢呗。”
乡土文化登上特色舞台
年轻人上台了,上了岁数的大妈也不示弱,动作可以笨拙,热情不肯让步。溪水兴奋起来,香樟树兴奋起来,而月光故意不动声色,乡村舞台,以此为背景,栖息最淳朴的幸福。
舞台建起来了,节目丰富了,演员和观众也多起来了。但郑尚其总还觉得缺了些什么。“现在是业余文艺展现的舞台,我们能不能把它变为挖掘和培育乡土特色文化的平台?”郑尚其反复思索后找到了答案:“我们就是要通过这个平台,增进邻里乡亲的感情互动,丰富老百姓自己的文化生活。”
自成立那天起,高枧草根大舞台始终把广大群众作为直接服务对象和群体,利用闲暇时间排练一些本土传统剧目、改编剧目或以农民身边事、身边人为体裁新编创作剧目,在节庆日、春节等假日,到本乡镇、邻乡镇的村子演出。
2011年,乡里先后举办了“2011年元旦文艺演出”“庆祝建党90周年红歌会”“2011高枧乡‘迎国庆迎重阳文艺晚会’”等文艺演出;与农村集市日相结合,在每月逢农历三、八集市日在大舞台举办各种类型的小型演出,长年累月,雷打不动;小品《和谐家庭》《有钱存银行》、三句半《农村大变化》《计划生育就是好》等,以团结邻里、遵纪守法、热爱家乡、热爱祖国、倡导社会和谐等为主题,再加上以方言表演,既喜闻乐见又无比亲切,深受群众喜爱。
以前只会低头劳作的乡亲们,放开了手脚,在大地的胸膛上,用心灵舞蹈。他们醉心于热气腾腾的生活,他们在自己的舞台上演绎春光。
让时光发芽,不仅靠勤劳的手,爱有多重,呼吸就有多轻。这样的夜晚是宁静小村别样的庆典,这样的夜晚是现代乡村的第二种写意。物质富裕,精神富有,这不正是美好的幸福生活图景吗?

Rural Residents Find Fun on Grassroots Stage
By Zhu Zhu
Gaojian Town is one of the earliest industrialized regions in Sanmen County in southern Zhejiang when village and town factories mushroomed in the early years of the reform starting in the late 1970s. For a long while, entertainment events were far and few between in Gaojian. People drank, played mahjong and cards in their spare time. The only two recreational choices had unpleasant downsides: You lose money if you gamble; you get into trouble if you get drunk. The idea of organizing some local recreations first occurred to Zheng Yue, a shopkeeper in Gaojian. He talked with Zheng Shangqi and Zheng Jianhua about his idea. The three saw eye to eye. Excited, they decided to take action.
In the early 2009, they set up a so-called “art troupe.” In front of Zheng Yue’s shop is a walkway about 5 to 6 meters wide and nearby is a large public square with flowers in the center. They chipped in and spent about 10,000 on acoustics, mikes, and a television set and turned them into a Karaoke system. They set up the system outside the shop and began to entertain themselves one evening. Their singing attracted crowds. Their family members came to sing. When the news that they sang regularly spread to neighboring villages and factories, more people came to sing and enjoy watching and listening. Some women who had done their evening line dance somewhere moved their dance venue nearby to enjoy the fun atmosphere.
After the first wave of excitement, the three founders of the art troupe thought they needed to expand and hold regular events. Zheng Shangqi talked with other entrepreneurs in the town and they responded enthusiastically. They decided to build a “Grassroots Stage” at the town square. They chipped in again. A 60-m2 steel-structure stage was set up at the square. They bought an acoustic system, lighting devices, costumes, and props.
The stage has evolved into an entertainment/recreation center for Gaojian Town and neighboring villages. There is a show in the evening when a market day ends, that is, there are about 6 regular evening shows per month, as a market day takes place every five days, a tradition that goes back to centuries in Gaojian Town.
The art troupe has become the major entertainer in town. These grassroots entertainers never lack inspiration for creating shows. Some old-age performers, though with little formal school education, are creative stage artists. You give them an idea and a few days later, they come up with a complete show: a good storyline, characters, lines.
The members of the troupe, though not making a cent out of shows, put in more than their money. When a big show comes up, they sometimes close their businesses for an evening.
Zheng Xihong, a villager, emcees regular shows on market evenings. She goes all out for her role. Her father-in-law is in charge of her wardrobe; her husband drives her to and from the stage; her son tags along to be with the parents. None of the members of the art troupe gets paid for participating, but they are willing and they pay their time and money to be part of shows, as they think every minute is fun. They have learned fast. Zheng Shanglou is in charge of controlling stage lighting. A factory owner, he did not have any experience of stage lighting. He learned through watching shows put up by other lighting controllers.
The troupe has created quite a few shows. Its repertoire includes old-time plays as well as new programs. Moreover, the troupe tours neighboring villages in important festivals such as New Year’s Day and Spring Festival. The shows, entertaining, also aim to promote community and family harmony, uphold patriotism, civility and value. Performers speak the local dialect so that messages can well spread and sink in better.
Local residents are enthusiastic performers too. The stage in Gaojian Town is also theirs. Anyone who has a show can put it on at the stage. Thousands of grassroots enthusiasts have performed on the stage. Audiences cheer and come back to watch, because these shows are their stories, their voices, their sentiments, their entertainment, and their fun.
