11月29日，由中國舞協(xié)主辦，中國文學(xué)藝術(shù)基金會(huì)、印度斯里拉姆表演藝術(shù)中心、 “驚喜”藝術(shù)基金、 SRF聯(lián)合制作，印度編導(dǎo)魯克米尼·查特吉與中國舞蹈家滕愛民共同編創(chuàng)并主演的當(dāng)代舞劇《貝瑪·蓮》在京首演。該劇用印度古典舞蹈與中國當(dāng)代舞蹈的交織融合，詮釋穿越時(shí)空、跨越國度的人類情感，尋求兩種文化的共通之處。

舞劇共分為五個(gè)章節(jié)，講述了半神、愛人、凡人與仙子等幾個(gè)人物之間的愛恨情愁，以及由此而生、與之相伴的嫉怨糾纏與互助感恩，最終迎來歡樂祥和有情人終成眷屬的美好故事。包括中印兩位編導(dǎo)在內(nèi)的十位中印舞者的演繹既帶有印度舞蹈慣有的神秘感，又彰顯出中國舞蹈的獨(dú)特魅力。印度舞蹈“舞教合一”的傳統(tǒng)與明顯的文化印記熔鑄在舞者的身體當(dāng)中，彰顯出的肅穆敬畏與中國舞者或自由奔放或含蓄內(nèi)斂的現(xiàn)代風(fēng)格相互映襯，讓整部作品帶有虛實(shí)相生的強(qiáng)烈對(duì)比與陰陽兩極的朦朧意境和從始至終的儀式感，體現(xiàn)著中印文化的相互包容與彼此尊重。

Thedebut of Shiv-Yin, a contemporary dance drama under joint creation and presentation by Indian choreographer RukminiChatterjee and his Chinese counterpart TENG Aimin was shown in Beijing on 29, November. Hosted by Chinese Dancers Association, the drama is under co-production of China Literature and Art Foundation, India Shri Ram Centre for Performing Arts, Serendipity Art Fund and SRF. Blending India’s classical dance and China’s contemporary dance, the dance drama was committed to seeking the common place between the two cultures by interpreting the human emotions crossing the times and countries.

Divided into five acts, the dance drama tells about the happy story of the love and hate between the characters of half-god, lover, mortal and fairy, and resulting gratitude concerned with the jealous resentment and entanglement with eventual peace and happiness between all lovers. The performance of ten Chinese and Indian dancers, including the choreographers from the two countries, not only showcasd the mystery of the India dance, but also highlighted the unique charm of dance in China.The tradition and the obvious cultural imprint of India dance’s Unity of Dance& Religion were casted into dancer’s bodies with solemn awe, contrasting with Chinese dancers’ free or implicit modern styles. It embodied the whole works with the virtual and real contrast and the obscure mood of the Yin and Yang with last sense of ceremony, reflecting the mutual tolerance and respect of the Chinese and Indian cultures.
