高行健戏剧中“沉默的人”角色探析

摘要

The setting of the characters in some plays of Gao Xingjian is relatively simple,even only two people can be found in some plays.Except the simple relations of characters,there is another role that doesn’t join the dialogue.For example,"the silent people"in The Station,"the retired old man "in The Shelter from the Rain,"the monk"in The Dialogue and Backchat.They only have gestures and expressions.They are not involved in the plot,but still can be considered as an indispensable part of the play,just like other characters.These characters express themselves by silent actions and emotions,which become more dramatic and amusing.They make some polyphonic effects and open up multilevel spaces.%高行健的一些戏剧人物设置比较简单甚至有些剧目只有两个人对话，但是在简单的人物关系之外，会设置一个不参与剧中对话的角色。比如：《车站》中的“沉默的人”，《躲雨》中的“退休老人”，《对话与反诘》中的“和尚”。这类角色在各自剧中只有动作和表情，游离于剧情之外但又贯穿整部戏，和其他角色一起构成戏剧不可或缺的一环。这类角色通过无声的动作和具象的表情进行表演和言说，增强了戏剧性和观赏性。客观上产生一种复调效果，开拓了戏剧多层的意义空间。
