Performance of Xu Fen. Yu hai kuang chao. [The raging tide in the sea of desire]. Adaptation of Desire under the elms by Eugene O'Neill. By the Chengdu Chuan ju Company, under the direction of Li Zenglin, Tian Huiwen and Hu Chengde in Chengdu 1989. Liu Ping as Abbie 欲海狂潮 Xu Fen sets the key for her adaptation : a dualistic view of desire and its role in our spiritual and emotional life. She replaces O'Neill's puritan New England family with a Chinese household from some unidentified ancient feudal era, a sensible transplantation considering the rigid asceticism, strict morality and pragmatic concern for worldly life that American puritanism shares with Chinese Confucianism. |
