Standing behind the curtain of the side stage and peeking at it secretly, you can see the outline of all the audience standing and applauding; the interior of the theater is not bright, only the blue light on the stage is refracting, but everything is like this Clear, you can even capture the excitement and excitement on the faces.

Five hundred and fifty spectators, all 550 spectators, without exception, stood up collectively. The thunderous applause lasted for three minutes, not only did not stop, but it continued to heat up. The whistles, screams and cheers gradually began to be mixed with each other, and the waves were higher than the waves. To the end.

Tom Holland was standing on the side stage, looking quietly, his eyes started to glow with excitement, he raised his head and looked up at Lan Li beside him, his eyes filled with worship and admiration, his eyes were too hot. , So much so that Lan Li, who was talking with the staff, felt it, and could not help turning his head, with doubts in his eyes.

"Lan Li! You are the best!" Tom looked at Lan Li in admiration with amazement. He sighed and thought about it. After all, he couldn't think of a better vocabulary, so he said again, "God, you are so amazing. good job!"

Lan Li laughed blankly. Although Tom was 16 years old and Lan Li was only 22 years old, Tom looked like a child in Lan Li’s eyes. So he raised his hand and rubbed Tom’s dark brown curly hair, "Concentrate, concentrate. On my own performance, the real test has not yet begun."

Tom stuck out his tongue, nodded repeatedly, and then clenched his fist again to show his determination.

At this time, John Cod strode over, intervened between Lan Li and the staff, and patted Lan Li on the shoulder, "If you perform well, I know you can do it."

Just "good"?

The other people around couldn’t help but roll their eyes. Tom was startled in shock, but John was unmoved—the performance hadn’t ended yet, so it’s too early to say "perfect" now. This is everyone. The truth that stage directors must remember. Because on the stage, accidents will always continue.

John motioned to the scene of endless applause, "They are calling you out now."

Compared to Broadway, the West End of London is still a more professional theater environment, even for tourists who come to watch the theater, the average standard is relatively high. Mainly because the repertoire of the West End of London is too cold, not as approachable as Broadway. On the whole, the quality of the audience in the West End of London is more secure.

However, there are now untimely whistles, screams and cheers inside the theater.

Generally speaking, there is only applause inside the theater, and other sounds are impolite behavior. This is not a movie theater, let alone in front of the TV at home; expressing admiration with applause is one of the basic etiquettes of the theater. But today, when the first scene ended, there was such an exception on the scene.

Obviously, the audience is marveling at Lan Li's performance. The end of the first act is almost like the end of the entire play. They couldn't wait and forgot to start cheering and shouting, looking forward to Lan Li's curtain call, just like an encore in a concert. This is the highest appreciation for the crew.

Ordinary repertoire, at the end of the whole show, call back twice to return to the scene, which is an unimaginable great success; but decades ago, at the peak of the theater, the crew members returned four or even five times. It is normal. The applause of the theater can last for ten minutes or twenty minutes, which truly interprets "enduring".

Now that the first act is over, the audience is calling to return. This shows that "Les Miserables" has taken an extremely solid step on the road to success.

Lanly could understand what John meant, but he was actually letting him go out for the curtain call; but Lanly shook his head and refused John's request, "Don't break the rhythm."

He can go out for the curtain call, which is not a big deal; but there will be a long performance, and there will be two more scenes in the afternoon. All the actors are kept in a tense and active state. If he appears on the curtain call now and further incites the audience, it will disrupt the rhythm of other actors' performances. This is definitely not worth the gain.

"The lights are turned off and the curtain ends. We begin to prepare for the second act." Lan Li said decisively.

John did not continue to argue, but just looked at Lanly's eyes and felt the firmness, so John also nodded in agreement, "Preparation for Act Two!" After saying that, John's pace of leaving stopped again. It seemed that he wanted to say something, but he didn't know how to express it. In the end, he patted Lan Li's shoulder heavily to express encouragement, and then walked away.

Ezra Miller, Domnar Gleason, Andy Conahan and others all stood on the side stage and did not leave.

Ezra was the first to greet him and thumped Lan Li's shoulder hard, "Jesus Christ, you are a beast, a beast!" His face was full of excitement and excitement.

It’s unimaginable that if Lanly’s firepower is fully on in their opponent's scene, what a terrible disaster it will be; fortunately, Lanly did not; even more fortunately, Lanly has become their target. , In the performance, guide them step by step. The success of "Les Miserables", at least the success of the first act, is the core of the absolute core.

Andy, who was standing next to him, also laughed happily, "Wow, fortunately you didn't stare at me with that kind of eyes, otherwise I would definitely forget the lines.

Unlike movies, the scene on the stage lacks the blocking and switching of the camera, and the conversion and buffering of the supporting role. The direct momentum and the details of the performance are completely released, and it is easy to break the balance of the performance. Create a serious deviation, and may even affect the audience's viewing effect and the reflective effect of the play.

This is also the reason why performanceist acting has always emphasized control. They need to control all their power, emotions and performance within the expected range.

Many newcomer actors may be too excited on the stage and lose control if they are not careful. This kind of thing can be two or two; and those seasoned and experienced actors can really bring into play their basic skills of freely retractable and well-rounded performances. Extremely, watching their performance is indeed a kind of enjoyment.

"The actors who have finished all performance tasks today said so." Lan Li retorted jokingly, and immediately made Andy burst into laughter, and the others next to him also followed up with--

Andy's scene is over. At least the part with the lines is over.

After that, Andy will change clothes and makeup, play the role of passerby or extra, fill the space on the stage, but these roles have no lines or performances, just need to move according to the arrangement. So, Andy can already relax.

Nodding to his friends, Lan Li walked quickly to the waiting room. He must hurry up to change his clothes and his makeup.

Tom is like a little tail, following Lan Li step by step. Along the way, his smile is satisfied and his steps are brisk. There is not much communication, but he can't conceal his joyful mood.

Lan Li noticed the existence of Little Tail, but there was really no time now. What's more, Tom didn't affect his footsteps, so Lan Li let it go.

After entering the waiting room, I saw Joe Alvin who had no role at the moment. The two were about to collide head-on, and Joe's cheeks flushed suddenly, blinked, at a loss, and then raised his thumbs up, "Lan Li, just now, it was really wonderful!"

"Thank you!" Lan Li walked around the road, patted Joe on the shoulder, and then heard Tom's twittering voice, "Joe, did you hear it? Did you hear it just now? There was applause from the audience. I couldn't stop. ...You should really go over and take a look, Lan Li's performance is simply incredible! Did you see the scene of his sprint..."

With the help of the assistant, Lan Li began to change clothes quickly. When every second counts, each actor is equipped with a dedicated assistant who is responsible for changing clothes, reminding the lines of the next scene, reminding the current performance progress, etc., to ensure that the actor can enter the state as soon as possible.

Not only the blue gift, Ezra also immediately returned to the waiting room, began to change clothes and makeup, the whole waiting room was very busy.

Through the full-length mirror in front of you, you can see Daisy Ridley standing not far away, with a hesitant expression, never speaking, but the tension and anxiety between the eyebrows linger. .

After changing his clothes and trousers, Lan Li turned around and opened his arms so that the assistant could put on the coat. He faced Dai Xi, "So, are you going to speak? Or are you going to continue staring at me with that strange look? When he was in a hurry, his tone still had a hint of brisk ridicule. It could be seen that Lan Li was not only not nervous, but also enjoying it.

Dai Xi still hesitated, and Lan Li didn't give her time, "Tick, Tick, I won't have time anymore."

"Lan Li, I'm worried, for a while..." Dai Qian shrugged nervously, and then her shoulders stiffened in a high position and couldn't let it down.

The core actor in Act Two is Fantine~www.novelhall.com~ In other words, most of the weight falls on Daisy’s shoulders. After experiencing such a perfect performance by Lan Li just now, Daisy's pressure suddenly became clear-not to mention that Fantine's most famous "I Had a Dream" was staged in the second act.

This music is even the most famous song in the entire "Les Miserables". In 2009, "Britain Got Talent", later known as "Aunt Susan" Susan-Boyle (Susan-Boyle) with this song, became famous all over the world!

The pressure can be imagined.

After Lan Li put on his coat, he walked forward quickly and grabbed Dai Xi’s shoulder, "Listen, Dai Xi, you are outstanding. It is because of your excellence that you won the opportunity to play Fantine. Next, what you need to do is not to prove yourself, but to show yourself, show those talents that make us amazing, show the charm of the performance. Also, show Fantine! The moment you step on the stage, you are Fantine! Fang! Ting is you!"

After speaking, Lan Li's eyebrows were slightly the same, "Understand?"

Dai Xi nodded heavily, "Understood!"
