Abstract:
"Defamiliarization effect" is a drama theory put forward by the German dramatist Brecht, which aims to separate the audience, actors and performances by various means, so as to make the audience examine the events presented on the stage. The satirical comedy "The Whole Talk of the Disorderly People", created by the performance workshop in Taiwan, explains the main connotation of Brecht's "defamiliarization" theory. It is characterized by fragmented structure, separated viewing relationship, simple and rich stage arrangement and exaggerated and grotesque performance style. By breaking the traditional viewing atmosphere, it brings the audience a strange viewing experience, which enables the audience to observe and think about the current events from a critical position in addition to enjoying the drama. The play expresses the criticism of the social chaos in Taiwan and the reflection on the human spiritual world, which makes the drama more "historical" and plays the role of realistic change of the drama.
“陌生化效果”是德国戏剧家布莱希特提出的戏剧理论,旨在通过种种手段将观众、演员与表演间离开,达到使观众对舞台所呈现的事件进行审视的目的。由台湾地区表演工作坊创作的讽刺性喜剧《乱民全讲》诠释了布莱希特“陌生化”理论主要内涵。其以碎片式的结构、间离式的观演关系、简单与丰富并存的舞台布置及夸张怪诞的表演风格为特点,通过打破传统观剧氛围,给观众带来陌生化的观剧体验,使观众在欣赏戏剧之外,自觉站到批判立场上对眼前事件进行观察并思考。该剧表达了对台湾地区社会乱象的批评和有关人类精神世界的思索,使戏剧更加“历史化”,发挥了戏剧的现实变革作用。
