原想今天用ipad写,打开文档发现文字定格在戊戌年大年初一,当时在看《世界不似你所见》,写了点儿感慨就搁置了。试了两行感觉还没手机打字快,没带键盘,于是放弃,继续手机码字。又是接近十一点,继续逼死自己,看来也要走上屯稿之路了。
昨日有幸应好友之邀去看了音乐剧《芝加哥》,上学期间迷恋过一段时间韦伯的音乐剧,买了几盘盗版cd沉迷了挺久,后来沉浸入俗世之中几乎忘怀,更不提现场体验了。这次也是第一次去保利大剧院,也是第一次去听音乐剧,感触很丰富。尤其是这部剧盛名已久,一票难求,倍加珍惜。场中座无虚席,几乎没有任何人会交谈,每首乐曲聆听之中,似乎观众们的坐姿都没有改变,确实是可以称作引人入胜了。
每首都很赞,艺术家们的演绎简直完美,全部都是现场演唱和演奏,却仿佛录音一样没有失误和破绽,叹为观止。整部剧中,最富有心理学意味的一首曲子,是女主丈夫的一首自白,透明先生。一个毫无存在感的好人,普普通通,能力不足,除了一副好心肠,似乎没有优点,也没有能让人能够记住的缺点,总是仿佛透明一般,被人忽略。所以他会爱上艳光四射的罗克西,向往大舞台的罗克西,不甘寂寞的罗克西,从来不缺存在感的罗克西,一直享受并期待引起更多人瞩目的罗克西。也许对这位来说,只有作为罗克西的丈夫,才能被人稍微关注一下吧,果然看完剧我没能记住他的角色名……编剧起名的本事很厉害……
附上《透明先生》的歌词,今天偷懒看会儿书去。
Mister Cellophane - Joel Grey
I'm the father
papa
dad dad
Did you hear me
no you did'nt hear me
That's the story of my life
nobody notice I'm around
nobody Not even my parents noticed me
One day I went to school
and when I came home
they moved
If someone stood up in a crowd
And raised his voice up way out loud
And waved his arm
And shook his leg
You'd notice him
If someone in the movie show
Yelled "fired in the second row
This whole place is a powder keg"
You'd notice him
And even without clucking like a hen
Everyone gets noticed now and then
Unless of course that personage should be
Invisible inconsequential me
Cellophane
Mister cellophane
Should have been my name
Mister cellophane
'cause you can look right through me
Walk right by me
And never know I'm there
I tell ya
Cellophane
Mister cellophane
Should have been my name
Mister cellophane
'cause you can look right through me
walk right by me
And never know I'm there. . .
Suppose you was a little cat
Residin' in a person's flat
Who fed you fish and scratched your
ears
You'd notice him
Suppose you was a woman wed
And sleepin' in a double bed
beside one man for seven years
You'd notice him
A human being's made of more that air
With all that bulk you're bound to see
him there
Unless that human bein' next to you
Is unimpressive undistinguished
You know who. . .
Should have been my name
Mister cellophane
'cause you can look right through me
Walk right by me
And never know I'm there
I tell ya
Cellophane
Mister cellophane
Should have been my name
Mister cellophane
'cause you can look right through me
Walk right by me
And never know I'm there
Never even know I'm there
