Shenyin Jiangu Lu On Tie Dan's Posture——Based on The Peony Pavilion-School and The Romance of the West Chamber-Wedding
When compared with its stage presentation in later generations,and although there are differences in details,movements,expression habits,and titles,Tiedan's posture in Kun Opera as it has been recorded in Shenyin J iangu Lu laid the foundation for later Kun Opera performances.Compared to other Dan roles,Tiedan's figure features great opening and closing acts,and her performance is marked by precision and moderation,which is a consistent aesthetic pursuit in the annotations of Shenyin J iangu Lu.Changes that occurred in Tiedan's posture need to be considered within the rules of stage creation and the process of Chinese opera history.
