‘Perhaps we may frighten away the ghost of so many years ago’: Gaston Leroux’s haunting of Andrew Lloyd Webber’s The Phantom of the Opera “也许我们可以把这么多年前的鬼魂吓跑”:加斯顿·勒鲁对安德鲁·劳埃德·韦伯的《歌剧魅影》的困扰

This article investigates the ambivalent relationship between Andrew Lloyd Webber’s 1986 megamusical The Phantom of the Opera and its 1910 source novel, Gaston Leroux’s Le Fantôme de l’Opéra. Lloyd Webber and his collaborators initially differentiated the megamusical from previous adaptations by heralding a return to the spirit of Leroux’s narrative. In doing so, however, Lloyd Webber lay down the limitations of his own creative authority over the material by establishing a ‘knowing audience’ primed to experience both the ‘hypotext’ of the novel and the ‘hypertext’ of the musical through the prism of the other. This article demonstrates how Leroux’s novel was subsequently marginalized via a strategic project of displacement in the megamusical’s ‘paratexts’, such as programme notes and media interviews. Examining these paratexts and Lloyd Webber’s later reworkings of the material (as seen in its 2004 film adaptation and its 2010 sequel), this article argues that the composer-producer’s attempts to appropriate the ‘phantom’ legend have been repeatedly disrupted by the novel’s spectral resurgences in the public imagination.
本文研究了安德鲁·劳埃德·韦伯1986年的巨作《歌剧魅影》和1910年的原著小说加斯顿·勒鲁的《Fantôme de l ' opra》之间的矛盾关系。劳埃德·韦伯(Lloyd Webber)和他的合作者最初通过预告回归勒鲁(Leroux)的叙事精神,将这部巨型音乐剧与之前的改编作品区分开来。然而,在这样做的过程中,劳埃德·韦伯通过建立一个“知情的观众”,通过另一个棱镜来体验小说的“假文”和音乐剧的“超文本”,从而奠定了他自己对材料的创作权威的局限性。这篇文章展示了Leroux的小说后来是如何被边缘化的,通过一个战略项目的转移,在超级音乐剧的“准文本”中,如节目注释和媒体采访。通过研究这些文本和劳埃德·韦伯后来对材料的重新创作(如2004年的电影改编和2010年的续集),本文认为,作曲家兼制片人试图利用“幽灵”传说的努力一再被公众想象中小说中幽灵的复活打乱。

‘Look at Me’, I’m femininity: The female persona in 1970s musical theatre 《看着我》,我是女人味:20世纪70年代音乐剧中的女性形象

As the Women’s Liberation Movement developed in the 1970s, women challenged society’s limited female representation as either the Madonna or the whore. Musicals in the 1970s, including Grease (1972), Chicago (1975) and Evita (1979), complicated the female image through the juxtaposition of feminine stereotypes in the heroine’s persona. With each of the shows centralizing the plot around analysing the contradictory feminine image, the women perform in both public and private settings, along with other characters critiquing their personas. From feminist protesters to the writings of Simone de Beauvoir and Betty Friedan, Sandy, Roxie and Eva reflect the requests of contemporary women to display their gender as something beyond the perceived dichotomy of Madonna or whore in their music performances.
随着20世纪70年代妇女解放运动的发展,妇女们以麦当娜或妓女的身份挑战了社会上有限的女性代表性。20世纪70年代的音乐,包括《油脂》(1972年)、《芝加哥》(1975年)和《埃维塔》(1979年),通过将女性刻板印象并置在女主人公的角色中,使女性形象变得复杂。每一部电视剧都将情节集中在分析矛盾的女性形象上,女性在公共和私人环境中表演,其他角色也在批评她们的角色。从女权主义抗议者到西蒙娜·德·波伏娃(Simone de Beauvoir)和贝蒂·弗里丹(Betty Friedan。

Examining the ‘histo-remix’: Public memory, Burkean identification and feminism in the musical Six 审视“历史混音”:音乐剧《六人行》中的公众记忆、伯克人身份认同和女权主义

The musical Six has taken the United Kingdom by storm, earning five Olivier nominations in 2019 and crossing the pond, previewing on Broadway in the spring of 2020. Six tells the story of Henry VIII’s six wives in what the musical portrays as their own words, with a twist ‐ the six wives form a girl group performing a concert for their audience. Through a rhetorical analysis of the musical’s script, cast recording, piano/vocal score, and field notes from two performances, I argue that Six creates public memory of Catherine of Aragon, Anne Boleyn, Jane Seymour, Anna of Cleves, Katherine Howard and Catherine Parr, focusing on their individual personalities and accomplishments, rather than simply on their relationship to Henry VIII, as documented history describes them. I suggest that by doing so, Six minimizes the role of place and time in the creation of public memory. Furthermore, I argue that this creation of public memory is intertwined with Burkean identification, as theatregoers find themselves connecting with one or more of the queens as they are portrayed in Six. By combining twenty-first-century language with the stories of sixteenth-century women, Six builds consubstantiality between its characters and its audiences. This article also explores how the final number, Six, reinvents the women’s stories as they might have been if they had lived in the twenty-first century and the impact that this has on public memory. Finally, I suggest that Six is a feminist text, advocating for solidarity and the individually defined empowerment of all women.
音乐剧《六人行》在英国掀起了风暴,在2019年获得了五项奥利维尔提名,并于2020年春天在百老汇试映。《六人行》讲述了亨利八世的六位妻子的故事,音乐剧用他们自己的话描述了这六位妻子,其中六位妻子组成了一个女孩组合,为观众表演了一场音乐会。通过对音乐剧剧本、演员录音、钢琴/声乐乐谱和两场演出的现场笔记的修辞分析,我认为Six创造了公众对阿拉贡的凯瑟琳、安妮·博林、简·西摩、克莱夫斯的安娜、凯瑟琳·霍华德和凯瑟琳·帕尔的记忆,关注他们的个人个性和成就,而不仅仅是他们与亨利八世的关系,正如文献记载的历史所描述的那样。我建议,通过这样做,Six可以最大限度地减少地点和时间在创造公众记忆中的作用。此外,我认为这种公众记忆的创造与伯克人的身份认同交织在一起,因为剧院观众发现自己与《六人行》中描绘的一位或多位女王建立了联系。通过将21世纪的语言与16世纪女性的故事相结合,《六人行》在人物和观众之间建立了同源性。这篇文章还探讨了最后一个数字“六”是如何重塑女性故事的,如果她们生活在21世纪,她们可能会是什么样子,以及这对公众记忆的影响。最后,我建议《六人行》是一部女权主义文本,倡导团结和赋予所有妇女个人权力。

The Black Broadway voice: calls and responses 黑人百老汇之声:呼唤与回应

Black musical theatre artists in New York City share and theorize their experiences with industry expectations around racialized vocal performance. Musical director John Bronson, actor/singer Jamal James, composer/music director Dionne McClain-Freeney, composer/writer Khiyon Hursey, actor/singer Rheaume Crenshaw, actor/singer/voice teacher Elijah Caldwell, and actor/singer Zonya Love Johnson comprise the group. The artists grapple with the conundrum of sounding ‘Black enough’, how the demand for uniform Black vocalization confounds historical accuracy in period shows, and the fantasy of the generic, idealized ‘Black Broadway voice’. The group details unspoken, misguided industry assumptions that Black singers do not produce multiple kinds of belt sounds, do not use the vocal mix sound, and sing only in a heavy (power) sound virtuosically ornamented with riffs that evokes for (white) listeners a misleadingly monolithic idea of ‘the Black church’. As these artists point out, ‘We do not all go to the same church’; in fact, the ability to fluidly move between more classical (legit) and gospel vocal sounds may actually arise from a singer’s training in the church choir. Collectively these artists have worked on multiple Broadway and off-Broadway shows from The Color Purple to Hamilton and A Strange Loop, major tours and regional productions of shows such as Hair, Ain’t Misbehavin’, and Waitress, and hold songwriting credits from the prestigious BMI musical theatre writing workshop to Netflix. This conversation took place in October 2019.
纽约市的黑人音乐剧艺术家分享他们的经历,并将其与行业对种族化声乐表演的期望理论化。音乐总监约翰·布朗森、演员/歌手贾马尔·詹姆斯、作曲家/音乐总监迪翁·麦克莱恩·弗里尼、作曲家/作家基扬·赫尔西、演员/演唱家瑞奥姆·克伦肖、演员/演奏家/声乐老师伊利亚·考德威尔和演员/演唱者Zonya Love Johnson组成了该组合。艺术家们正在努力解决听起来“足够黑人”的难题,对统一黑人嗓音的需求如何混淆了时代节目的历史准确性,以及对通用的、理想化的“黑人百老汇声音”的幻想。该组织详细描述了行业中未言明的、误导性的假设,即黑人歌手不会发出多种腰带声,不会使用人声混音,只会以一种沉重的(力量)声音演唱,这种声音巧妙地装饰着即兴段,让(白人)听众产生了一种误导性的“黑人教堂”的单一概念。正如这些艺术家所指出的,“我们并不都去同一个教堂”;事实上,在更古典(合法)和福音的人声之间流畅移动的能力实际上可能源于歌手在教堂唱诗班的训练。这些艺术家共同参与了多场百老汇和非百老汇演出,从《紫色》到《汉密尔顿》和《奇怪的循环》,大型巡演和地区演出,如《头发》、《没有不端行为》和《女服务员》,并从著名的BMI音乐剧写作研讨会到Netflix获得歌曲创作学分。这次谈话发生在2019年10月。

‘Waving through a window’: Nostalgia and prosthetic memory in Dear Evan Hansen “透过窗户挥手”:《亲爱的埃文·汉森》中的怀旧和假肢记忆

Dear Evan Hansen, a popular Broadway musical whose narrative centres on connectivity and the protagonist’s social anxiety, offers a disruptive potential to the otherwise standard nostalgic leanings of the contemporary American musical. Operating dramaturgically, nostalgia offers the audience an opportunity to recall an idealized past that imbues the musical they are witnessing with their own positive affect. Dear Evan Hansen’s use of prosthetic memory disrupts the nostalgic tradition of the contemporary musical. Using dramaturgical analysis to identify the narrative operation of nostalgia and prosthetic memory, this article situates the disruptive potential of Dear Evan Hansen as an intervention into the American musical theatre canon writ large.
《亲爱的埃文·汉森》(Dear Evan Hansen)是一部广受欢迎的百老汇音乐剧,它的叙事以连通性和主角的社交焦虑为中心,它为当代美国音乐剧中标准的怀旧倾向提供了一种颠覆性的可能性。怀旧以戏剧的方式为观众提供了一个回忆理想化的过去的机会,这种过去充满了他们正在观看的音乐剧的积极影响。亲爱的埃文·汉森对假肢记忆的使用打破了当代音乐剧的怀旧传统。本文运用戏剧分析来识别怀旧和假记忆的叙事操作,将《亲爱的埃文·汉森》作为对美国音乐剧经典的干预,定位为颠覆性的潜力。

The multiple mobilities of civil rights in Jeanine Tesori’s Violet and Caroline, or Change 珍妮·特索里《紫罗兰与卡罗琳》中民权的多重流动
IF 0.1 0 THEATER Pub Date : 2020-12-01 DOI: 10.1386/SMT_00039_1

This article centres on Jeanine Tesori’s Violet (book and lyrics by Brian Crawley) and Caroline, or Change (book and lyrics by Tony Kushner), both of which are set in the American south during a crucial period in American history running between the assassination of John F. Kennedy on 22 November 1963 and the passing of the Civil Rights Act of 1964. Both works musically capture the imaginative traditions of the American south through gospel, country, Motown, and blues in order to detail the complex negotiations of the titular female protagonists through challenges of isolation, entrapment and liberation in the months following Kennedy's assassination. This article argues that the promise and affordance of mobility within these musicals are rooted in an uncanny spiritual fervour expressed by Violet and Caroline, both of whom have defined a distinctive, and, as will be recognized by each musical’s conclusion, mistaken theology of personal devotion and faith that runs precisely counter to the liberating potentials in the world around them.
本文以珍妮·特索里(Jeanine Tesori)的《紫罗兰》(Brian Crawley著,作词)和《卡罗琳》(Caroline)或《改变》(Tony Kushner著,作诗)为中心,这两部作品都发生在美国南部,从1963年11月22日约翰·F·肯尼迪遇刺到1964年《民权法案》通过,这是美国历史上的一个关键时期。这两部作品都通过福音、乡村、摩城和蓝调在音乐上捕捉了美国南部富有想象力的传统,以详细描述在肯尼迪遇刺后的几个月里,有名无实的女主人公通过孤立、诱捕和解放的挑战进行的复杂谈判。本文认为,这些音乐剧中流动性的承诺和启示源于维奥莱特和卡罗琳所表达的一种神秘的精神热情,他们都定义了一种独特的,正如每部音乐剧的结论所承认的那样,错误的个人奉献和信仰神学,这与他们周围世界的解放潜力背道而驰。

Kennedy on 22 November 1963 and the passing of the Civil Rights Act of 1964. Both works musically capture the imaginative traditions of the American south through gospel, country, Motown, and blues in order to detail the complex negotiations of the titular female protagonists through\u0000 challenges of isolation, entrapment and liberation in the months following Kennedy's assassination. This article argues that the promise and affordance of mobility within these musicals are rooted in an uncanny spiritual fervour expressed by Violet and Caroline, both of whom have defined a\u0000 distinctive, and, as will be recognized by each musical’s conclusion, mistaken theology of personal devotion and faith that runs precisely counter to the liberating potentials in the world around them.","PeriodicalId":41759,"journal":{"name":"Studies in Musical Theatre","volume":"14 1","pages":"243-253"},"PeriodicalIF":0.1,"publicationDate":"2020-12-01","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"44213256","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":0,"RegionCategory":"","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}
