联合报评选2009年十大「错过可惜」表演节目

　　两代之间五款深情，大胆前卫却又通俗动人；

　　颠鸾倒凤、笑泪交织，无论你爱的是什么性别，都要为之揪心动容！

　　语不惊人死不休的明末清初前卫怪才李渔，三百五十年前写了部奇观着作；

　　编导周慧玲巧编妙排，颠鸾倒凤性别反串，延伸演绎这一段奇情真爱的十七世纪同志之恋。看似秀才追名士，也像才子恋佳人，母子是父子，姊弟伪夫妻。剧中人虽仅历二十余载岁月，周慧玲却将时代场景跳格于民国元年「南风」盛行的闽中，及保守压抑的五O年代台湾；在跨时代、跨地域的特殊氛围中，陈述这跨越性别的恋人之爱、超越血缘的天伦之情。

　　The story begins with the romance between Xu Jifang and You Ruilang in middle Fujian where Nanfeng fashion (homosexual love affair) is commonly practiced; time: 1912, the first year of the Chinese Republic.  Jifang, the last selected xiucai from Qing Dynasty has a son and wife, who died from birth giving.  Jifang falls in love with the beautiful youth, Ruilang, and puts himself in poverty for the betrothal gifts demanded by Ruilang’s poor and needy father.  Jifang also serves Ruilang’s father and mourns his death due to his deep affection for Ruilang.  Determined to remain true and loyal to Jifang, Ruilang castrates himself in order to repay Jifang’s passion and favor.

　　Jifang and Ruilang’s sweet love is deprived at the height of their passion.  Due to his jealousy, Chen Dalong, Jifang’s previous partner plots against him and has him arrested for interrogation.  Dalong accuses Jifang of “performing castration in his own household, having eunuch serve him, and intending to plot revolt against the nation.”  The judge punishes Ruilang instead due to his contempt against Nanfeng.  As Ruilang undergoes the punishment of caning, people who are into the fashion surround him in order to examine his dainty flesh.  In order to protect Ruilang, Jifang dies from the punishment.  He leaves Ruilang with his dying words, urging Ruilang to take care of his only son, leave their hometown and stay away from Nanfeng.

　　The tension engendered by generation gap and personal/family history outlines the second part of the story.  Situated in Taiwan from 1959 to 1964, Part Two is unfolded with Ruilang and Xiaojiang’s (Ruilang’s cousin who is always in men’s wear) unconventional relationship and their unconditional devotion to each other.  Ruilang, who changes his name to Ruiniang raises Chengxian (Jifang’s only son) with Xiaojiang.  In order to protect Chengxian from the disaster caused by Nanfeng, Ruiniang even follows the model of Mencius’s mother of house-moving , endeavoring to forbid Chengxian becoming intimate with male friends.  Despite Ruiniang’s efforts, Chengxian still falls in love with Chen Dalong’s nephew, Chen Nianzu.  Ruiniang finally accepts their relationship in the course of time.  Ruiniang plays the roles of both father and mother; such virtue is further confirmed by Chengxian’s graduating at the top of his class.  Ruiniang receives the Model Mother Award because of Principal Zheng’s (Zheng One) recommendation.
