[Rebirth] King of Theater

Senator Mr. Gary Jones' statement is indeed very reasonable, but it is reasonable, but it does not help the plot. It cannot completely comfort Mrs. Jones's fragile heart, and the lady continued to watch it with a sigh.

However, to make matters worse, the following plot is still not a happy plot.

On one hand, Sir David took Duchess Josiana to a boxing match.

The posture of this married couple is a bit like ancient Roman slave owners, standing outside the bloody arena, watching the two people fight with blood spattered and bloody, and even dislike the battle It's boring and not interesting.

The princess complained coquettishly: [I thought watching the game would relieve my boredom, but it didn't. ]

Sir David smiled slightly: [To eliminate boredom, I have a wonderful method here, have you heard of the Laughing Man? ]

On the other hand, Queen Anne is also brewing a conspiracy.

Against her obnoxious half-sister, she accepts the surrender of a schemer and villain, Bakir Federo.

Who is this Baguier Federo?

He is a little man who is very good at making money. Through flattery, flattery, and fawning on Josiana, he obtained a small official position, and the job of this official position is to uncork the sea Notify the land, for example, the ship is in distress, the ship is sinking, the ship is robbed, etc., the captain will put the relevant report or last words in a bottle, seal it, and throw it into the sea).

According to common sense, no matter how unreliable and ridiculous this official position sounds, since Bakir Fedro obtained the position from Princess Josiana, he should be regarded as a member of the Princess' faction.

Baguier Federo, however, was an exceptional talent.

He miraculously turned himself into a three-faced agent.On the one hand, he accepts Josiana’s entrustment to investigate Sir David’s whereabouts from time to time; on the other hand, he accepts Sir David’s benefits and will regularly report Miss Josiana’s living conditions to him; finally, On this basis, he also surrendered to Queen Anne, pretending to be the queen's confidant, and unreservedly reported all the things between Sir David and Miss Josiana to the queen.

When such a shameless villain learned that the queen wanted to have a whole sister Josiana...

He was immediately in high spirits.

[What?Princess Josiana helped me before? ]

Bakir Fedro puts on a good show of ingratitude on stage: [Do you call that a bailout?Hell, this woman has so much property, but how much can she spend on me?Come on, she's just dismissing me as a beggar!Hateful, hateful! ]

So, the actor stood on the stage with his hands on his back, gritted his teeth, and swore that Josiana, who "looked down on herself", would be punished.

The audience below were all stunned: "Is it wrong to help others together?" "It turns out that giving people money is to be hated in turn?" "What the hell is the reason for this? Revenge after getting benefits? What kind of revenge is he avenging?"

But the wonderful thing about this role is that he has his own set of ungrateful rules of conduct.

Under this shameless code of conduct, every line of the lyrics he sang was surprisingly magnificent.

—Being grateful will paralyze you, and accepting charity will lose your freedom.

——The fat rich man throws the bone on the ground, and from then on, you have a place in the kennel.

— Kneel down!

—Give thanks to your master!

The actor playing Bakir Fedro let out a bitter roar on stage:

—Shameless, crazy, ridiculous, absurd!

—Only a real dog can be grateful.

——Smart people want to eat up your intestines, dig out your five internal organs, and swallow you alive—swallow you!

— Ah, Josiana?A nasty woman who treats people like dogs!

Bakir Federo used a voice that seemed to come from hell, full of contempt and malice, and sang word by word: [Sooner or later, the dog in her eyes...will put its claws into her chest ...]

The audience was almost dumbfounded.

They can understand the Queen's jealousy towards the Duchess, they can understand that Sir David and Miss Josiana seem to be at odds, and they only want to get the marriage they want, but they absolutely can't understand Mr. Bakir Federo!Even though his character song is very nice, the lyrics seem to be very unreasonable, but to be favored by others is to be favored by others, how can this person be insulted and hurt after receiving favors, and from then on he will form a deep hatred with his benefactor What does it look like?Incomprehensible!

But the plot is so absurd and ridiculous, just like "people will laugh when they see a smiling face" is unreasonable.

Fortunately, the story always has to go up and down. After feeding several bowls of poison in a row, the screenwriter found out and fed everyone some sugar...

So, the next scene is the love between boys and girls.

Gwynplaine, a kind-hearted smiling person, and Tia, an innocent and ignorant blind girl, are a natural pair, and they seem to be destined to be together.

Orphan to orphan, handicapped to deformed.

They have their own shortcomings, but when they are together, they can achieve a wonderful complementarity.

If Tia was not blind, would she like the deformed Gwynplaine?If Gwynplaine's face hadn't been deformed, would he have fallen in love with the beautiful but blind Tia?These are all unknowns.

Now, everything is just right, and these two poor people meet and fall in love.

But, in Tia's heart, Gwynplaine is her family, her brother, her friend, her lover, the savior who rescued her from the wilderness, the blizzard, and the grave. The spiritual pillar for her to survive is her guide and protector. Even though the whole world thinks he is a monster, in her heart, he should be a god!

For Gwynplaine, things are a little more complicated.

He also belonged to Adia. Who wouldn't love a beautiful and pure girl, but... is it a kind of deception to let a woman who can't see herself love herself?

"Tia, I'm ugly," Gwynplaine said.

The blind girl replied, "No, I know you are beautiful."

"Do you hear people laughing? They're laughing at me because I'm horrible looking."

"You're lying." Tia said firmly: "You should be ugly when you do bad things. You always do good things, so you are beautiful."

Ursus, the old man who adopted the two children, stood aside, watching the interaction of the young lovers with great interest.

After hearing Tia's words, the experienced old man smiled and sang a song about beauty, ugliness and love along with the music.

In the song, he would say [the beauty and ugliness of the soul do not need eyes to see], and would say [conscience is vision, the blind can always see what others can't see], and then complained [their love is really troublesome] , but when he saw the two children kissing each other purely and shyly kissing each other's arm through the sleeve, he couldn't help bursting into laughter, and shouted amidst the cheerful and happy music: [ Fall in love, two fools! ]

Despite their rough fate and low status, they lived so happily.

The curtain fell again.

It's time for the intermission.

Maybe it's the beautiful love between the smiling personality Gwynplaine and the blind girl Tia, which relieved some of the discomfort caused by the previous vicious villains. The audience is still in a relaxed state overall.Some people took the opportunity to go out for a stroll; some people ran to buy some snacks and drinks; some people rushed to the backstage as soon as possible, trying to hand over their business cards to the security guards, and asked the security guards to transfer them to favorite actors and singers , I hope that after the show is over, I can get a chance to meet my idol.

In addition, the most important group of drama critics will also take this opportunity to whisper a few words.

Some people praised it greatly: "This is the most wonderful show I have seen this year." Some people didn't take it seriously: "If this play is in some small theaters, it is really good, but on Broadway, it is just a good show." It’s just mediocre.” Some people even belittled with envy in their eyes: “The adaptation of a classic is nothing new, and it deliberately pursues stage effects. It’s completely grandstanding.”

However, no matter what these people say, why do they say so...

No one chose to leave the theater. They sat firmly on the chairs in the theater, looking at the stage from time to time, and all waited expectantly for the curtain to reopen!

But when the curtain was opened, the audience who were still immersed in the happy love between Gwynplaine and Tia just now were dumbfounded again, feeling as if a shooting star fell out of thin air, taking away the hard-earned love in their hearts. A little bit of warmth and happiness was smashed to pieces in an instant.

In order to relieve her boredom, the proud Princess Josiana took a carriage to watch the famous Laughing Man performance.

Afterwards, she wrote a love letter to Gwynplaine without any concern for other people's feelings:

—You are terrible, I am beautiful.

—You are the actor, I am the princess.

——I am above ten thousand people, and you are under ten thousand people.

——I want you, I love you, come on!
