Putian is a famous hometown of Chinese and foreign operas. Local people have a special liking for Puxian Opera, an ancient drama. For hundreds of years, Puxian has formed many unique folk operas. The so-called drama custom is the folk custom of acting and watching plays. Its red tape is very complicated, but its content is extremely rich, with the local characteristics of Puxian. For example, there are more than ten kinds of performances, such as throwing the shed ceremony, painting the shed, cleaning the shed spell, doing the Eight Immortals, jumping the crown, doing the Five Blessingg, making money into treasures, visiting the streets by the champion, and stepping on the shed by Tian Xianggong. The custom of watching drama also includes watching drama on New Year's Eve, inviting drama, civil and military shed, dating in front of the shed, omnivorous food before the play and so on. Among them, the following operas are unique. The performance customs include shed ceremony, colorful shed, being the Eight Immortals, jumping the crown, and the champion parading the streets. The ceremony of falling into the shed. In the old days, in Puxian, every newly organized troupe, after hiring children's singers and backstage drummers, would choose an auspicious day to hold a tent ceremony. In the middle of the night of this day, all the children dressed in foreign cloth or Guangdong jade robes, led by ugly lanterns, played daunting gongs and held the shrine of Marshal Tiangong as clean feet, and arrived at the designated place to invite incense. After the incense returned to the furnace, Jing Jiao immediately pretended to be a general and put cigarettes and paper money on the stage. After the color shed, they will go on stage as students and dancers, sing a Puxian opera "Jin Fangting" as soon as they enter and leave, and then talk to each other to increase mutual understanding, enhance mutual feelings and wish each other good luck. In the old society of Caipeng, the performances of Puxian Opera were all four plays, namely, three-fold opera and one script, commonly known as three-fold opera. At the beginning of the performance, the color shed is played first, the drummer plays drums and tee joints, plays the suona "Zhida" twice, and plays the sand gong "Bianbian" twice, which is called drum newspaper as a notice to prepare for the performance. When the troupe is ready, it will set off firecrackers and even gongs and drums, commonly known as "three gongs and drums". In the combination of blowing and singing of the three gongs and drums, the melody is "homesickness" (also known as moths), and the lyrics are close to the official language, without dialects. The original lyrics have nine paragraphs, and generally only three paragraphs are sung. Only when singing in the civil and military shed of Taiwanese opera, in order to show their skills, did they finish singing nine paragraphs. Then I read four sentences backstage: prosperous Jiangnan scenery, spring breeze and splendid hall. A full house of red peony blossoms. Every time I read a sentence, I will beat gongs and drums; After the completion of the color shed, there was a paragraph of upper and lower words without lyrics, only the three words of Lori Lian were sung repeatedly. It is said that this is the legacy of the Song people, and some people say that this is the spell of Marshal Kanda. After singing, the word "hair color" was called backstage, and an old man with three strands of black beard appeared. According to legend, this character is Don Huang Ming. He bowed to the audience and read four poems: a volume of yellow by Hanlin and many articles by the Ministry of Rites; The piano played in the Chun Xue, arousing princes and princes. Step down after reading it. In the old days, Puxian Opera Troupe performed colored sheds, mainly to exorcise ghosts and evil spirits and ensure the safety of the troupe and the countryside. Get eight immortals. In Puxian, every time Lord Huang Cheng was born, most villages asked the troupe to perform the Eight Immortals in the temple. During the performance, the Eight Immortals took the stage successively, followed by Li Tie Guai Li, Han Zhongli, Lv Dongbin, He Xiangu, Cao Guojiu, Zhang, Lan Caihe and Liu Haichan. The Eight Immortals in Puxian Opera have no Han Xiangzi, only Liu Haichan. He wore a square scarf, a cloth belt around his waist and money tied with a rope. He is the Liu Hai Diao Jin Chan in Puxian folklore. According to relevant experts' research, during the Song and Yuan Dynasties, there were two major schools of Taoism in China, North and South. It is the founder of northern Taoism who is called the five ancestors of the north with,,, and Wang. The popular Eight Immortals were shaped in the early Ming Dynasty. Han Xiangzi was replaced by Liu Haichan in the Eight Immortals of Puxian Opera, which shows that the repertoire of the Eight Immortals of Puxian Opera is the legacy of Nanxi Opera before the early Ming Dynasty. Puxian Opera "Get Eight Immortals" can be divided into "Get Eight Immortals Big" and "Get Eight Immortals Small". "Fix the Eight Immortals" usually means that the Eight Immortals appear one after another, and everyone introduces themselves and sings a piece of music. If there are birthdays of Huang Cheng and the Jade Emperor, it is necessary to make the Eight Immortals. That is to say, in addition to the Eight Immortals, there are the Queen Mother, two ladies-in-waiting, the Dragon King, the shrimp soldiers, the crab generals, the turtle prime minister and the aquarium. Jump and coronation. Puxian Opera Troupe, at the request of the rural people, gave a 10% discount on the performance and won the championship before the performance of the drama. There are differences between men and women in crown jumping, which are not only used for happy performances such as birthdays, weddings and full moons, but also for the birthdays of the Jade Emperor, Lord Huang Cheng, Empress Dowager and Guanyin Bodhisattva. It is said that Puxian Opera is a drama handed down from the court of the Tang Dynasty. The champion paraded in the street. This is a must-play game for young men and women in Puxian when they get married. Its plot mainly reflects the story of Wen Quxing's reincarnation among the people, and also reflects the psychology of rural people praying for their children to be born as soon as possible to ensure peace and grow up to be the top scholar in the school. There is a champion and two sergeants in the performance. After the performance, they sang Puxian Opera "One River Wind", and then the soldiers knelt down and said, "Dear Master Champion, the parade is over. Where can the deacon be reborn? " The champion replied, "The deacon's name is X House (referring to the married person's surname)." And read: "Apricot blossoms are fragrant for thousands of miles, and the champion goes to Ma Rufei." Then he flew off his whip and ran to the bride's door of his master, shouting praise. At this time, there is a square table at the entrance of the bridal chamber. First, the mother-in-law took the baby (props) to the groom and put it on the bed. Then the champion will give the crown to the groom, put it on a plate and put it on the top of the shelf. Finally, the landlord shouted praise, and the whole class shouted for it sentence by sentence. Before leaving, Zhang Tianshi shot three arrows at the bride's door with a bow, in order to get rid of the monty dog and let the newborn child grow up safely.
