山宛然布袋戲部落格

大家好！山宛然在Yahoo!奇摩部落格紀錄關於教學狀況，如果想要認識山宛然，就要常常來逛山宛然唷！

理念　由於在布袋戲的源流體系裏一向都是屬於閩南福佬系的，「山宛然」可以說是國內少有可使用客家話全劇演出的布袋戲團，不僅為布袋戲界擴展了觀賞族群，更致力將客家語言及客家音樂、文化等特色運用於偶劇中。

展望 「山宛然」以傳統客家三角採茶戲出發，未來表演的方式頃向走遍台灣各地的小鄉鎮，深入鄉親們的生活圈，和草根的老百姓們親近，落實「處處皆劇場」之夢想。
山宛然劇團於西元2002年由黃武山成立，從小師承國寶級布袋戲大師李天
祿先生與陳錫煌李傳燦老師學習傳統布袋戲技藝；2003年畢業於國立台北藝術大學劇場藝術研究，亦能體會師長薪傳的苦心，向客家山歌天后賴碧霞老師學習客家山歌，將客家文化注入至傳統布袋戲中，已成為國內少數年青一代，具有專業演出傳統布袋戲能力與戲劇學術理論的基礎，為傳統布袋戲留下了火種。
山宛然劇團深知客家文化傳承的重要性，目前以製作演出為主軸，積極參與各項藝術節活動，並開始著手規劃客家戲劇、客家布袋戲與客家音樂的結合課程。利用布袋戲偶生動活潑的表演方式，吸引年輕一代的客家族群對客家文化藝術的重視，重拾客家精神，甚至讓非客家族群了解，進而體認客家文化的多元性與包容性。

Shan Puppet Theatre is one of a few puppet troupes that are performing traditional puppetry in Hakka language in Taiwan. The traditional puppetry was first presented in Fukien language in the southern China, but we overthrew the idea and put together a creative combination of Hakka music, culture and history in our puppet performing. In this way, we intend to bring more audiences to the theatre and help them to understand and appreciate the beauty of our traditional puppetry.

Our Prospect
Shan Puppet Theatre was founded by Wu-shan Huang in 2002. When he was only ten, Huang has become a pupil of Puppet Master Tien-lu Lee until now. And because of his Hakka background, he has also learned Hakka folk music and opera from Master Bi-xia Lai. After he completed his M.F.A. in Theatre at Taipei University of the Arts in 2003, he starts to realize his masters and teachers’ efforts of passing on the tradition. Therefore, he decides to combine the traditional puppetry and Hakka music with the modern theories of theatre. He not only creates a new style of performing art, but also brings new blood to this withering cultural activity.

The performance of Shan Puppet Theatre is based on the traditional Hakka opera. In the future, we plan to tour in every town and village in Taiwan in order to be close to our audience and to achieve our goal – “Theatre is everywhere.”

The main focus of Shan Puppet Theatre is to pass on Hakka culture to the public and the younger generation. We produce new performances for children and adults and participate various cultural events and festivals. We also design a series of courses and workshops to introduce Hakka music, culture and puppetry to school children and communities. We wish to help both Hakka and non-Hakka people to understand the spirit of Hakka culture and recognize their identity.

Our Goal
1. Developing possible styles of puppet performing.
2. Designing programs or workshops of Hakka music, culture and puppetry for schools and communities in order to break the boundary of “theatre.”
3. Creating original scripts and plays for children in Hakka language and training professional performers.
