读了刘厚生同志《戏曲必须永远推陈出新》(载《人民戏剧》一九七九年第四期)一文,颇受启发,想在这里谈谈戏曲布景创作的继承与革新问题,以供商讨。传统戏曲基本上是不用布景的。解放后,戏曲舞台美术工作者在新编历史剧与现代戏的用景上作了一些有益的尝试,已经基本上做到普遍用景,说明了戏曲艺术的表现手段有所丰富,有所发展。 After reading Comrade Liu Housheng’s article entitled “The Opera Must Be Innovated Away” (People’s Theater, Issue IV, 1979), I was quite enlightened and would like to talk about the inheritance and innovation of the opera scene creation here for discussion. Traditional drama basically is not set. After the liberation, the opera stage art workers made some useful attempts in the new historical drama and the modern drama. They have basically done the universal use of scenery, which shows that the performance art of opera art is rich and has been developed.
