But in the opening part of The Peony Pavilion, a nine-hour opera that runs over three performances, all that happens is that its heroine, Du Liniang, is granted a fleeting vision of love and afterwards pines away with a broken heart.Time passes slowly in kunqu, the early classical form of Chinese opera, despite the fact that the producers of The Peony Pavilion have cut the original running time by half. There are other concessions to modern taste, too, in the mix of contemporary and traditional instruments and in the impeccable aesthetic of the lighting and set design. Anyone with the slightest interest in the style pages of magazines will be struck by the beauty of the costumes and painted backdrops here, with their delicate watercolours and minimalist lines.However, none of these audience-friendly tinkerings blunts the fact that The Peony Pavilion is a very alien kind of theatre. Compared with the more acrobatic Beijing Opera, the singing and movement are contained within a fluttery, low-key style, an exquisite calligraphy of expression. By contrast, the speaking style of kunqu is extravagantly mannered. Characters engaged in the most ordinary of conversations sound like angry gulls, their voices keening and swooping in wild cadences.Given that most of the action is in the language, the digital subtitles flashing at either side of the stage are a vital prop. Little may be happening on stage, but the language is dense and surprising.Watching The Peony Pavilion is a hallucinatory, entrancing experience - but not one for the easily bored. A whole scene can pass in flash, but minutes can stretch into hours. Until Sunday.

One of the oldest musical scores in China, the Peony Pavilion has been boldly updated from the end of the 16th century and transformed into a beautiful, Chinese kunqu opera.Updated for a contemporary audience, the Chinese opera at Sadlers Wells is a moving tale of love, beauty and marriage that still resonates with audiences almost 400 years after it was first penned. Known as the Peony Pavilion or The Young Lovers, the opera is the longest running play in China, dating from the time of the Ming Dynasty.Performed as kunqu opera, this art form is refined over centuries, with many different people contributing to the process. Combining literature, music, dance and drama, the original tale is simply one of a pair of lovers who meet in their dreams.

Fortunately for bums on Sadlers Wells seats, the producer Kenneth Pais palatable version for the Suzhou Kunqu Opera Company of Jiangsu province has more than halved it, with the sub-title The Young Lovers Edition, to be shown in three three-hour parts.In Book 1, The Dream of Love (which is all I can report on), the heroine, Du Liniang, beauteous daughter of the regional governor, yearns for the emancipation of love sexual as well as romantic - and finds fulfilment with a dream lover who, in real life, will turn out to be a poor scholar, Liu Mengmei. Languishing and anguishing amid memories of her dream, she pines and dies. In the later parts come resurrection and the lovers reunion, triumphing over many vicissitudes.The designs are lovely: decors of calligraphy and nature paintings (the awakening of spring is a theme), and an impressionist garden with lily pond. The costumes are colourfully elaborate or delicately exquisite. The actor-singers are also exquisite: Shen Fengying as the heroine, a rarefied confection in pink and white, looking like porcelain; Yu Jiuling as her lover, no less decorative in make-up.Their singing is wonderful in its range, though the style takes some getting used to. In dialogue, the women coo or meow in a form of speech-song that, at its most swooping, suggests Schoenbergs Pierrot Lunaire. This goes for the male lover, too, whose voice soars into falsetto. Extended arias, like the music generally, are lovely - from plaintively melodic to swelling surges. The most luscious of these soliloquies are Du Liniangs narration of her dream, in decorously erotic poetry, and of painting her own portrait to preserve her beauty. Shen Fengyings performance is a tour de force.Comic moments are provided by Lu Jia as her maid, Spring Fragrance, and Tao Hongzheng as Sister Stone, a nun who tells us a bawdy story about a gynaeco-logical abnormality that has left her impenetrable. Apart from a scene with the emperors warriors, this first parts dance movement is sweet and stately: simple, elegant measures making expressive use of long sleeves, but also a charming set piece with the Flower God and his attendant fairies, 10 beautiful women gliding as if on casters, and a spectacular finale in which Du Liniangs departing soul is cloaked in red, a harbinger of her future return to life.Earlier at the Wells came the world premiere of Sutra, created by the Belgian-Moroccan choreo-grapher Sidi Larbi Cherkaoui for a most unusual cast: 17 young Buddhist monks from the Shaolin Temple in Henan province. Their physical prowess, as we know from some kitschy shows at the Peacock Theatre, is in the martial arts, which go hand in hand with spirituality in their culture.The monks are an engaging troupe, especially the 11-year-old Shi Yandong, ever on the go, like an acrobatic imp, or pausing to meditate like an infant Buddha. The pieces real impact, however, lies in the visuals. The sculptor Antony Gormley supplies the main props: man-sized boxes that the monks rearrange to become coffins, catacombs, prisons, buildings, a lotus blossom, city towers. When the boxes are upright, in Adam Carres atmospheric lighting, they recall one of those stark, early1900s stage sets by Edward Gordon Craig. When blocked into arches, they become Stonehenge.Many monks dive from a cliff into one box, tightly crammed, with the boy on top scanning the horizon, and we are surely meant to think of boat people. Larbi himself, dressed as a tramp, wanders through the action, a troubled controller who often gets trapped (literally) in his own creation. And Szymon Brzoskas music supplies wistfully meandering accompaniment. At 75 minutes, Sutra outran interest and, to me, point.http:/entertainment.timesonline.co.uk/tol/arts_and_entertainment/stage/dance/article4072299.ece（一）一级词汇统计：399个单词 【在这里，你将看到 “全国山河一片红”。】The From The Times is by the of In its original form, The,a century or, ran to and hours. for on seats, the version for the Company of has more than it, with the title The Young to be shown in three three-hour parts.In Book The of Love (which is all I can report on), the daughter of the regional for the of love as well as and finds with a who, in real life
