A COLLECTION OF GOOD WORDS
戏剧
Drama
Now, drama is quite useful at helping us to understand what our position is and, conversely, we might then understand why our theatre is being destroyed.
现在,戏剧在帮助我们理解我们的处境时非常有用,相反,我们可能会理解为什么我们的剧院正在被摧毁。
I've done a lot of costume drama and theatre - the National Theatre and In fact, most of my work at the theatre, at the National Theatre anyway, was period.
我做过很多古装剧和剧院——国家剧院,事实上,我在剧院的大部分工作,不管怎么说,在国家剧院,都是在那个时期。
There is hardly a pioneer's hut which does not contain a few odd volumes of Shakespeare. I remember reading the feudal drama of Henry V for the first time in a log cabin.
几乎每个拓荒者的小屋都有几卷莎士比亚的作品。我记得第一次在小木屋里读到亨利五世的封建戏剧。
One of the greatest things drama can do, at it's best, is to redefine the words we use every day such as love, home, family, loyalty and envy. Tragedy need not be a downer.
戏剧能做的最好的事情之一,就是重新定义我们每天使用的词语,比如爱、家、家庭、忠诚和嫉妒。悲剧不必令人沮丧。
I do like any kind of project that has both comedy and drama in it because in life you don't have one day where everything is funny then the next day everything is dramatic.
我喜欢任何既有喜剧又有戏剧的项目,因为在生活中,你不会有一天一切都是有趣的,第二天一切都是戏剧性的。
The best job was when I was at drama school and I cleaned flats in the Barbican. I loved it. They were spotless anyway, so you'd just watch the telly and flick a duster around.
最好的工作是我在戏剧学校的时候,我在巴比肯打扫公寓。我很喜欢。反正它们一尘不染,所以你只要看看电视,掸掸灰尘就行了。
When the drama attains a characterization which makes the play a revelation of human conduct and a dialogue which characterizes yet pleases for itself, we reach dramatic literature.
当戏剧达到了一种人物塑造,使戏剧成为人类行为的一种启示,一种对话,使戏剧成为一种个性鲜明而又自得其乐的语言时,我们就达到了戏剧文学的境界。
I tend to foster drama via bleakness. If I want the reader to feel sympathy for a character, I cleave the character in half, on his birthday. And then it starts raining. And he's made of sugar.
我倾向于通过阴郁来营造戏剧性。如果我想让读者对某个角色产生同情,我会在他生日那天把他劈成两半。然后开始下雨。他是糖做的。
The only thing I think I can be accused of about paparazzi is being really naive. I didn't think about it coming along with the job and I never, during my three years at drama school, fantasized about one bit of it.
关于狗仔队,我唯一能被指责的就是太天真了。在戏剧学校的三年里,我从来没有幻想过会有这么一天。
What I'm trying to do is find either existing properties or come up with properties or angles or stories which will create music drama. It's my obsession and most of all I would like to remain working in theatre. I think it's very much alive.
我想做的是找到现有的属性,或者想出属性、角度或故事来创造音乐戏剧。这是我的痴迷,最重要的是,我想继续在剧院工作。我认为它很有活力。
KEEP EXPLORING
沿着这个主题,再读几句。
