经典重归!由马修·伯恩带领新冒险舞团演绎的《剪刀手爱德华》首演于2005年,此次放映影像录制于2024年威尔士千禧中心举办的纪念演出现场。
这个充满了哥特式浪漫的故事由卡罗琳·汤普森改编自蒂姆·波顿1990年创作的同名电影。身为创造者的科学家遽然离世,为爱德华留下了诡异的剪刀手,当他走出封闭的古堡来到世人居住的小镇,人们能否接纳他可怖的外表,触及他纯真而温柔的内心,理解他融入人群的渴望?
借助丹尼·艾夫曼(Danny Elfman)与特里·戴维斯(Terry Davies)的经典配乐,并延续马修·伯恩标志性的叙事风格,《剪刀手爱德华》的舞蹈编排戏剧性十足,更加细腻地贴合情绪变化,刻画出犀利而温柔的剧作特质,营造出极具张力的戏剧感。舞剧《天鹅湖》《睡美人》《灰姑娘》中的老搭档舞台设计莱斯·布拉泽斯顿(Lez Brotherston)以20世纪50年代拼贴画风格的布景塑造舞台,而以投影形式出现的星空、云层与飘雪则为舞台增添梦幻魔力。全男班《天鹅湖》中饰演“王子”的利亚姆·莫维尔(Liam Mower)领衔出演剪刀手爱德华,对其敏感悲情而不乏自嘲式幽默的特质的演绎更添看点。
Matthew Bourne’s magical dance production of Edward Scissorhands has carved a place in the hearts of audiences worldwide since its premiere in 2005. Based on the classic Tim Burton movie and featuring the hauntingly beautiful music of Danny Elfman and Terry Davies, Bourne and his New Adventures Company return to this witty, bittersweet story of an incomplete boy left alone in a strange new world. Filmed live in March 2024 at the Wales Millenium Centre, Cardiff, this ’visually arresting and ceaselessly inventive’ (★★★★★ Metro) production is ‘the perfect treat for all the family’ (★★★★★ The Times).
In a castle high on a hill lives Edward; a boy created by an eccentric inventor. When his creator dies he is left alone and unfinished with only scissors for hands until a kindly townswoman invites him to live with her suburban family. Can Edward find his place in the well-meaning community which struggles to see past his curious appearance to the innocence and gentleness within? |
