historical origin
Yongkang Xinggan Opera was originally known as "making martyrdom", "martyrdom" refers to those who died, doing martyrdom means doing a Taoist ceremony and performing. It can be seen that it was originally a kind of Taoist ritual drama, often mixed in the "Qingxinhong Lou Congress", "Pan of Paradise", "Icelandic Dao Field", "Ninth Floor" and other ceremonies, which was called "Asian Nuo" by academia. Opera". It came into being with the emergence of Taoism. Yongkang is located in the central part of Zhejiang Province. Taoism has a long history. With the expansion of Taoist ranks, the types and forms of performances of Duanzhai are also changing. In addition to the original inner altar law, there are also outdoor performances. The performances often take drama as the form and super ghost as the content, which leads to a Taoist ritual drama similar to Nuo opera and Mulian opera, Yongkang Xinggan opera.
Yongkang Xinggan Opera was born in the Ming Dynasty, but it was prevalent in the Ming Dynasty. There are five "customs" in Yongkang County Chronicle of Ming Zhengde, which include "for the excessive spirits, dispelling evil spirits, eliminating disasters, popular waterways and land courses, turning over the ninth floor, doing martyrdom and other customs". In the Qing Dynasty, the prosperity of the Qing Dynasty, even repeated prohibitions, Kangxi "Yongkang County Chronicle" Volume VI "Customs" contains: "Wizards and witches have the same drama, the so-called Hong Lou Sheng Hui, also known as the ninth floor, obscene and absurd, do not know what it comes out of. It is not surprising that fools believe in it and men and women gather together. Shen Gong (referring to Zhixian Shenbao) has also been strictly prohibited in recent years. However, the custom has lasted for a long time, and its foolish death can not be broken. It must be reformed in accordance with the Constitution, or it can be stopped. Until the Republic of China, according to the old artists in Zhiying Town of Yongkang, Yongkang Xinggan Opera was popular in Yongkang County at the end of Qing Dynasty and the beginning of the Republic of China, and spread to Jinhua counties and Shaoyun, Chenzhou. In the 1920s, when the Ninth Floor was turned over in Zhiying Town, 36 theatre troupes participated in the performance. Because there were too many and too few classes, except Yongkang Xinggan Opera, which continued day and night, the other three-in-one classes, such as Hui Ban and Wu Opera, could only perform one ticket or one play. It can be seen that Yongkang Xinggan Opera was the most popular one at that time. Yongkang Xinggan Opera also has the phenomenon of fighting with other theatrical troupes, and often Yongkang Xinggan Opera wins.
After the founding of New China, because Yongkang Xinggan Opera was performed by Taoist priests, with a certain religious ritual color, most of them were dissolved, only some villages and towns still occasionally performed, and gradually separated from Taoist rituals such as "Waterland Daochang", "Turning Ninth Floor" and "Eighteen Hangs", "Turning Three Boundaries" and "Tamping Five Grain". It has become a pure opera. Most of the plays were suspended and only a few occasionally performed. Among them, "Maotou Huajie" was performed at Shizhu Township Cinema in Yongkang County from the Cultural Revolution to 1985. Professor Teng Yongran of Shanghai Conservatory of Music went to shoot the video.
Artistic Characteristics
scenario
Every time Yongkang Xinggan Opera starts, it must first perform "Dance Eight Immortals" ("Eight Immortals Celebrate Their Birthday"), the characters in the play.
In addition to Tieguai Li, Lu Dongbin and other "Eight Immortals" and the Queen Mother, there are also Monkey King and Guan Yu. The two pioneers who first appeared were "Shen Jiang". One was deaf from heaven and the other was dumb. Its performances run through the whole process of "turning over the ninth floor". The so-called "turning over the ninth floor" is to tie nine "eight immortal tables" (big square tables) to trees and stack a "tall building" on two long trees in the square, which is called the "ninth floor altar". Each table is filled with sacrifices. The performer (mage) recites sutras and mantras while performing various complex acrobatics on the legs of the table, turning upside down one by one until he reaches the top of the ninth floor, which is the climax. Performers perform various thrilling acrobatics on the table, such as "dragonflies", "cranes spreading their wings", "dragons playing with water", and then throw steamed bread and other sacrifices to the four sides on the top of the "ninth floor" to feed wild ghosts. Then they turn down one layer after another, turn over one layer and withdraw one layer. Removing nine tables means breaking down eighteen layers of hell and exceeding all the ghosts who succumb to death. It takes three years for the whole process of "turning over the ninth floor" to be successful. Once a year, the first year is called "the Ninth Floor". That is to say, two long trees are erected on the square, called "the Ninth Floor Tree", and then a performance of "Maotou Flower Sister" ends. The second year is called "Wen Jiu Lou", which usually has five performances and ends in two days and three nights (later, in order to save money, it is often omitted). The third year is the topic. The performance lasts for five days, with nine performances. On the fourth night, Maotou Huajie will be performed again. On the fifth day, that is, the last day, the "Ninth Floor Turn" (the whole activity process, also known as "Ninth Floor Turn"). Days are shorter, and must last for more than four or five hours. Night shows must be "two heads red" (that is, from sunset to sunrise the next morning). Some big villages and rich villages do the law of "turning over the ninth floor", often employing several wake-up teams or other theatre troupes to perform at the same time in one place, which is called "jigsaw venue".
Singing characteristics
The singing style of Yongkang Xinggan Opera belongs to the category of Gaoqiang Opera. The voice of the voice helps the voice, and the voice of the voice only uses the words "Ah Luo Mili" to help the festival with drums and gongs.

Later, with the progress of society, the lack of religious consciousness and the reduction of Taoist rituals, they gradually separated themselves from the law and performed alone.
