如果不是門口掛滿了紅色的燈籠，以及地鐵站、馬路邊隨處可見的“中國紅”，當(dāng)?shù)氐陌傩赵趺炊枷氩怀?，捷克首都布拉格的會議中心劇場，為什么會涌進那么多觀眾。

聲腔激昂、曲牌嘹亮，浙江婺劇團在捷克的首場演出就在這里隆重舉行。多國駐捷克使節(jié)以及捷克各界的近千位朋友歡聚一堂，演出的門票早就銷售一空。為了觀看到來自中國江南的精彩演出，不少布拉格百姓甚至報名作為志愿者，為這場演出忙前忙后了好幾天，只為一飽眼福。

布拉格的演出，為浙江婺劇團的捷克之旅拉開了序幕，同時也拉開了慶祝中捷兩國建交70周年活動的帷幕。

中捷歌唱家，攜手合唱《緣分》

布拉格的會議中心劇場里，具有濃郁中國江南特色的民俗表演《九節(jié)龍》，婺劇經(jīng)典劇目《呂布試馬》《金猴鬧春》《抬花轎》《戲曲武功》等節(jié)目輪番上演，臺上演員文武兼長，特色鮮明，精彩紛呈的演出讓布拉克觀眾大開眼界，幾乎每個人都舉著手機、相機，記錄每個精彩的瞬間。

“別看我們的節(jié)目比較多樣，其實都是悉心挑選過的。”浙江婺劇團相關(guān)負責(zé)人介紹說，比如《說唱臉譜》，通過現(xiàn)場給觀眾畫臉譜、穿戴戲曲服裝頭飾，向觀眾展示中國傳統(tǒng)戲曲演出的臺前幕后，讓他們感受中國傳統(tǒng)文化的獨特魅力，“中國的戲劇一直是外國觀眾非常好奇的‘東方神話，我們邀請觀眾上臺，然后現(xiàn)場畫上比較簡單的臉譜，講述這個臉譜的身份和故事，把文化和參與性融合在一起，這樣的體驗讓他們難以忘懷”。

而捷克歌曲《緣分》是由中捷雙方歌唱家共同表演的，“捷克是和中國建交最早的國家之一，新中國成立70周年，也是中捷建交70周年，所以我們特意選擇了這首歌，讓兩國的歌唱家一起表演，代表著兩個國家的友誼，也拉近了臺下中捷兩國觀眾的距離?！痹诂F(xiàn)場，對這首歌非常熟悉的觀眾隨著音樂打起節(jié)拍，場內(nèi)呈現(xiàn)一片和諧友好的氛圍。

情悠思緒長。劇場里的許多中國人在他鄉(xiāng)聽到如此熟悉的中國旋律，思鄉(xiāng)之情油然而生。

中國駐捷克大使張建敏是杭州人，對于浙江的婺劇也倍感親切?！懊利惖姆鼱査吆咏?jīng)常讓我想起我的家鄉(xiāng)浙江杭州。伏爾塔瓦河上有很多座橋梁，京杭大運河上也有很多座橋梁，‘歡樂春節(jié)活動就是一座橋，能夠連接中捷兩國人民之間的友好情感。捷克是最早與中華人民共和國建交的國家之一，感謝藝術(shù)家為中捷兩國人民搭起文化交流的橋梁。”

演出持續(xù)了兩個多小時，即便結(jié)束時已經(jīng)是深夜，但熱情的布拉格百姓依然不愿意離去，為博大精深的中華傳統(tǒng)文化所折服。“你們的演出是我看過的最好看的演出，不但演員演技很精湛，而且服裝非常有中國特色，呈現(xiàn)方式非常有新意”。

布拉格的演出持續(xù)了兩天，共有兩萬余名當(dāng)?shù)厥忻耋w驗了中式廟會，超過2000名觀眾觀看了浙江婺劇團的演出。

相見時難別亦難，在觀眾們的依依不舍中，浙江婺劇團來到了捷克俄斯特拉發(fā)市。

劇場臨時加座，演出好評不斷

俄斯特拉發(fā)市地處捷克東北部，是北摩拉維亞西里西亞州（）首府和捷克第三大城市。盡管早期以重工業(yè)、鋼鐵冶煉聞名，但在進行產(chǎn)業(yè)升級轉(zhuǎn)型后，該市的下維特科維采工業(yè)區(qū)廠房被成功改造成多功能文化區(qū)，每年舉辦各類展演活動，是捷克文創(chuàng)產(chǎn)業(yè)的標桿性項目。

為了迎接浙江婺劇團的到來，下維特科維采文化區(qū)的Aula Gong劇場內(nèi)，火紅的中國燈籠、中國結(jié)在工業(yè)廠區(qū)格外醒目。當(dāng)《茉莉花》的音樂翩然響起，這首代表著中國江南文化精髓的樂曲瞬間驅(qū)散了觀眾們心頭的寒冷，來自摩西州、俄斯特拉發(fā)市政府官員，各界友人以及在場的1000余名觀眾的心，也在瞬間飄向了遙遠的東方。

浙江婺劇團在布拉格的演出盛況早就通過社交媒體，傳遍整個捷克和周邊的東歐各國，俄斯特拉發(fā)市的百姓更是慶幸演出被安排在自己所在的城市。摩西州副州長卡尼亞認為，捷中兩國在各領(lǐng)域交流頻繁，他希望未來深化與中方合作，歡迎更多中國藝術(shù)團到訪摩西州。

盡管浙江婺劇團的姑娘、小伙子們旅途勞累，但他們依然以高度的敬業(yè)精神向觀眾呈現(xiàn)了一臺完美的演出?，F(xiàn)場叫好聲、掌聲不絕于耳，氣氛非常熱烈。當(dāng)演員們第二次謝場的時候，當(dāng)?shù)赜^眾已經(jīng)紛紛涌上舞臺，爭相與演員合影?？醽喐敝蓍L看完演出也非常激動：“俄斯特拉發(fā)這些年都沒有過這么精彩的演出，希望你們明年還能繼續(xù)來?！?/p>

然后，浙江婺劇團來到奧洛穆茨市。這個位于捷克東部的城市擁有捷克乃至中歐地區(qū)著名的學(xué)府帕拉茨基大學(xué)。這天晚上，奧洛穆茨市大雪紛飛，但惡劣的天氣絲毫抵擋不住觀眾的熱情，桑托夫卡劇院座無虛席?！拔覀儜?yīng)要求在側(cè)邊的樓梯加了不少座位，但這還是不能滿足觀眾的需求，最后開演的時候，我們看到劇場后面還是黑壓壓靠墻站著兩三排觀眾。”浙江婺劇團相關(guān)負責(zé)人說。

臺下觀眾對中國戲曲文化興趣濃厚，《抬花轎》《呂布試馬》等節(jié)目收獲了觀眾熱烈掌聲，笑容洋溢在每位觀眾的臉上。

捷克行的時間雖然短暫，但浙江婺劇團的全體成員克服了體力和精力的消耗，為當(dāng)?shù)匕傩斋I上了精彩的演出，而當(dāng)?shù)匕傩找矊⒒顒诱掌⒏惺苌蟼鞯浇菘水?dāng)?shù)氐纳缃幻襟w上：“演出很精彩”“音樂、舞蹈、編排、表演都是我十分喜歡的，舞臺呈現(xiàn)繽紛色彩”“這場演出完美呈現(xiàn)了中國的傳統(tǒng)文化和戲曲功夫”“節(jié)目很精彩，編排緊湊，非常有中國地方特色”，好評不斷。

演出雖然落幕，但中捷兩國的友誼因為中華文化走出的腳步，更加濃郁深厚，新中國成立70周年暨中捷建交70周年慶?；顒拥男蚰恍煨炖_，兩國百姓溝通交流的時代正在到來。

Zhejiang Wuju Opera Artists Visit Czech

By Hu Hao

From January 25 to 28， 2019， Zhejiang Wuju Opera Troupe staged four shows in Czech in commemoration of the 70th anniversary of the founding of the diplomatic relations between China and Czech and in celebration of the Chinese Spring Festival.

The first show was on January 25th at the theater of Convention Center in Prague. Red lanterns at the entrance to the theater and posters seen at all subway stations and streets in Prague explained why the theater had a full house at the gala show. In order to see the show， some local residents had served as volunteers at the venue for days.

Wuju Opera is a regional genre that essentially originated and now flourishes in Jinhua， a key city in central Zhejiang and known as Wu prefecture in ancient times. The opera carries on the ancient name Wu and retains the past glories of the region.

The programs staged in Czech in the January tour of Zhejiang Wuju Opera Troupe were carefully selected from the troupes repertoire and local folk entertainment. Dragon Dance， a thrilling folk entertaining show with local traditional characteristics of Jinhua， was staged as the show opener， getting audiences excited by the noise， kungfu moves， and elaborate choreography. Other showpieces from the repertoire were also crowd pleasers. One program highlighted facial makeup and costumes， which exposed the audience to the secrets of traditional Chinese theater arts. Some audience members volunteered to get their faces painted up before the show started.

At the debut on January 25， the visiting Zhejiang artists sang a Czech song with Czech vocalists. The audience responded warmly to the singing， clapping their hands to mark the rhythm. The show was attended by Czech VIPs as well as Chinese diplomats.

Zhang Jianmin， Chinese ambassador to Czech and a native of Hangzhou， the capital of Zhejiang Province， was touched by the performance given by artists from the home province. “The Vltava River that runs through Prague reminds me of Hangzhou. The Vltava River has many bridges， just like the Beijing-Hangzhou Grand Canal with so many bridges. The Happy Chinese Spring Festival event serves as a bridge of friendship between China and Czech. I feel grateful to the artists of both countries who build such a bridge，” comments the ambassador after the show.

The artists of Zhejiang Wuju Opera Troupe staged shows for two consecutive evenings at the convention center. They also staged at a Chinese temple fair in Prague. Altogether， more than 4，000 people watched the evening performances and about 20，000 local residents visited the temple fair.

Ostrava， a city in the northeast of Czech， was the troupes second stop for their third road show on this visit. The venue was Aula Gong， a theater in the Lower Vítkovice， a former coal-mining， coke production and ironworks complex in the city centre which retains its historic industrial architecture. As Zhejiang artists show in Prague had gone viral through social media in Ostrava in the previous two days， local people thrilled to welcome the celebration from China. Over 1，000 people attended the show， including government officials of Ostrava and Moravian-Silesian Region， celebrities and local residents. The performance brought down the house and the standing ovation was long and loud. Government officials said that they hadnt seen such a brilliant show for years and wished to see the return of the Zhejiang Wuju Opera Troupe in 2020.

The last show was staged on the evening of January 28 at Santovka Theater in Olomouc， a city in the east of Czech. It snowed that evening， but audience just flocked in. The house was more than full. There were additional seats in aisles and some audience members stood in rows in the back of the theater. Again the show brought down the house and audience cheered and applauded loudly. The show created a buzz on the local social media in Czech.
