Different from the meticulous creative process in our impression, great gods can hold up a play by themselves.
Although these musicals were all completed by one person, the quality was not affected at all. There are even some masterpieces that everyone is familiar with, all made by the Almighty God himself, which is unexpected.
Next, let's take a look at who the knee harvesters are.
Jonathan Larson (? Jonathan Larson)
One of the favorite things of many opera fans is the musical "Rent".
Jonathan Larson worked as a wage earner in a small restaurant in Manhattan for nine years before writing this classic. In his spare time on weekends, he arranges music and writes lyrics.
Although living in new york, the center of the American dream, Jonathan, an ordinary wage earner, has no chance to experience the life in new york. Jonathan had to share a room with several roommates in Manhattan in order to save rent. Perhaps we can find some shadows of Jonathan's real life in Wu Ji Rent.
Jonathan works in a restaurant on weekdays and becomes a great god to export inspiration on weekends. Many people don't know that the script, lyrics and composition of Wu Ji Rent were actually written by Jonathan alone. It took him seven years to create the classic works we see now.
Jonathan's talent and hard work have finally been recognized by the industry, and Wu Ji Rent won two drama super prizes-Tony Award and pulitzer prize for drama.
Wu Ji Rent can be said to be a clean stream in the music circle at that time. Because the mainstream musicals at that time liked to fool the audience with big scenes, the lights shone on the stage and actually did not express any substantive content. Everyone goes to the theater to have fun.
And "Wu Ji Rent" tells a story about "homosexuality", "AIDS" and other topics related to social marginal groups, a story with love and courage, as well as resistance and tears. After watching this drama, the audience may feel that they have had the same moment of struggle and hesitation.
Unfortunately, although Jonathan is the biggest hero of the play, he didn't watch the premiere of Wu Ji Rent in person. Jonathan died in the early hours of the opening day. The actors were still hesitant to cancel the performance, but in the end they premiered as scheduled.
After the performance, the audience was shocked until someone shouted "thank you, Jonathan Larsen", and everyone woke up and applauded wildly. Although the Great God left us, he left behind a pioneering work worth tasting, such as Wu Ji Rent. Anyway, I'm going to watch the love single cycle season again.
"Hamilton" Miranda (Lin Manuel Miranda)
After introducing Joe, let's talk about Lin Manuel Miranda, who is called "Lin Juju".
Lin Juju's work "Hamilton" (English name "Hamilton") is one of the most difficult musicals to get tickets on Broadway and West End of London. Even if you grab tickets 65,438+0 years in advance, you may not be able to get the desired position.
How popular is Hamilton? I still remember when I was watching it in the west side, the British shota beside me shouted excitedly, "I am an American tonight!" " Yes, we all defected to hhh in America tonight. )
Lin Juju is a screenwriter, composer and starring in Hamilton. He pays attention to acting skills and talents before and after the stage, and may have become an existence beyond "big", so he is called "Lin Juju".
Coincidentally, there is always a wonderful connection between excellent people. Lin Juju has repeatedly said that she is deeply influenced and inspired by Jonathan: "The rent makes me want to create, or makes me realize that my creation is allowed."
Young Miranda found that the stories of life can also be put on the stage. Even if it is not the setting of the novel, a good story can shine on the stage as long as it is created with heart. Inspired by the rent, Miranda started her own way of music creation and gradually grew into today's Lin Juju.
It is not difficult to see that some chorus scenes in Hamilton are actually paying tribute to the rent, and Lin Juju has become a versatile writer, able to write a divine comedy like Jonathan, and further, he has become the first hero to release his personal charm on the stage.
"Excite me" Stephen Dolgin? )
The first two plays are relatively large productions, and the next Thrill Me is very exquisite and compact by comparison.
There are only two actors in the whole play from beginning to end, and StephenDolginoff is the only one who writes, writes and composes.
So Stephen, two actors and a piano accompaniment brought the play to life.
Probably because the performance team is too small, it is easy to get together. This play can be staged in 16 countries and 10 languages 150 times (joking). Although it is true that the number of participants is small, the popularity of this drama in the world is mainly due to the exciting tension and the constantly reversed plot setting.
Stephen adapted the musical from the true story of Leopold and Loeb. In order to create a "perfect crime", they murdered a little boy at 1924. The flashback of the plot, at the last moment, the truth came out, which made people call it thrilling. This carefully woven drama is very suitable for performing in a small theater, and you can feel the tension of acting from a close distance from the pavement.
Xu Yunmei, the water is dead.
Not only Europe and America have these great gods who can make up stories and write catchy songs, but also Asian music circles have hidden treasures, such as Korean sister Xu Yunmei.
Her masterpiece Black Mary Poppins (English name) is as wonderful as ThrillMe above, and it won't make people feel bored for a second. Shui Yaori was born in Seoul University Town on 20th12. The script, arrangement and lyrics were all written by her mother Xu Yunmei.

Although the main features of this musical are suspense and psychological terror, it is not the traditional suspense story that makes the audience guess the murderer. Every time the plot advances a little, it is like giving the audience a jigsaw puzzle. You need to spell out a complete story line slowly, and you can't understand all the truth until the end.
In other words, I think the best thing about this play is the music! ! How come every song is so brilliant ~ ~ It can be said that it is a work with both plot and music. No wonder all the seats were snapped up for the first performance in Korea, which set a new record for the small theater performance in Korea at that time. Later, it was introduced to Japan by Dongbao and Baozhong.
Now Xu's works have finally been introduced to China. This time, the China version peeled off the carefully packaged dark candy layer by layer under the name of the Japanese version of Shui Yao Ri.

Although money may not buy tickets for Hamilton, Shui Yaori is at home now, which is probably the closest work we have to a masterpiece. Don't miss this great opportunity, act quickly.
