Each of William Shakespeare's 38 plays will be performed in a different language, including Arabic, Spanish and Urdu, during a theatre season in Britain to mark the London 2012 Olympic Games. Shakespeare's Globe theatre in the British capital said Thursday it would host the special season over six weeks, beginning next year on April 23, the playwright's birthday. Shows will included "The Taming of the Shrew" in Urdu, starring Pakistani television star Nadia Jamil as Katherine, and "King Lear" in Australian Aboriginal languages. Other performances include "Julius Caesar" in Italian, "Troilus and Cressida" in Maori, "The Tempest" in Arabic and "Love's Labour's Lost" in British sign language. "The Globe will create an international Shakespeare community in the heart of London, as a prelude to the internationalism which will fill the capital later in the year with the Olympics," said the Globe's artistic director Dominic Dromgoole. The project is part of the London 2012 Cultural Olympiad which was set up in 2008 to celebrate the Olympics. The Globe is a reconstruction of a theatre where many of Shakespeare's plays were performed before it burnt down in 1613. (Read by Lee Hannon. Lee Hannon is a journalist at the China Daily Website.)

在英國戲劇節(jié)期間，倫敦將用38種不同的語言來演繹莎士比亞的38部戲劇，以迎接2012年倫敦奧運會的到來。這些語言包括阿拉伯語、西班牙語和烏爾都語等。 倫敦莎士比亞環(huán)球劇院周四稱，他們將主辦這場特別的戲劇節(jié)。該戲劇節(jié)將于明年4月23日莎士比亞誕辰日開幕，持續(xù)6周。 將要上演的戲劇包括用烏爾都語演的《馴悍記》和用澳大利亞土著語言演繹的《李爾王》。巴基斯坦電視明星納迪亞?賈米爾扮演《馴悍記》中的“悍婦”凱瑟麗娜。 其他劇目還包括意大利語版《凱撒大帝》、毛利語版《特洛伊羅斯與克瑞西達》、阿拉伯語版《暴風(fēng)雨》，以及用英國手語演繹的《愛的徒勞》等。 環(huán)球劇院的藝術(shù)總監(jiān)多米尼克?德羅古爾說：“環(huán)球劇院將在倫敦中心創(chuàng)造一個國際莎士比亞社區(qū)，作為倫敦奧運“國際主題”的序曲。到2012年，倫敦會到處彌漫著這種國際化的氣氛。” 戲劇節(jié)是2012倫敦文化奧運的一部分，文化奧運活動是從2008年開始的，旨在慶祝倫敦奧運會。 環(huán)球劇院是一個重建的劇場，原來的劇場在1613年被燒毀，在那之前，莎士比亞的很多戲劇都在此演出。 相關(guān)閱讀 （中國日報網(wǎng)英語點津 崔旭燕 編輯：陳丹妮） |
