  • 粵劇的興起：二次大戰前省港與海外舞台

    by 伍榮仲 ...
    這是第一部從社會史、商業史及文化史角度探索粵劇的興起、發展與傳播的著作。作者運用了第一手中英文材料和大量的學術論著，當中包括近年才被發現的檔案，以二十世紀初為焦點，直到太平洋戰爭爆發為止，分三部分論述粵劇的發展過程。 粵劇原先以遊走方式，於珠江三角洲一帶的農村市集和鄉鎮巡演，後來在香港和廣州兩地大受歡迎。進入城市後，不單與商人資本的介入與戲院之出現息息相關，更對城市戲班的組織與運作、舞臺演藝之風尚、星級紅伶的塑造、粵劇行會的架構等等，帶來劃時代的變化。自晚清始，國家意識日漸強烈，戲曲界掀起一股維新改良之浪潮；而「志士班」和曾經興旺一時的粵劇全女班，都先後對富於傳統色彩的廣東地方戲曲帶來衝擊。 作者同時描繪十九世紀末二十世紀初伶人戲班透過移民網絡，散佈在東南亞和美洲的粵人聚居地的情形。這些地方一方面是粵劇演出之重鎮，另一方面是組織地區性巡演活動之聯絡、籌辦、集資中心。書中對於溫哥華的個案 ...
