Traditional Turkish Shadow Theatre: Karagöz
《土耳其傳統影戲：黑眼睛》
Turkey 土耳其
Description of performance 演出介紹
The puppet theatre is called Karagöz, which means "black eye" and is named after the main character in the stories. According to the legend, Karagöz begun in Bursa when two men working on construction of the great mosque in 1396 performed impromptu comedy routines. The other workers enjoyed their performances so much that it slowed the progress of construction, and when the sultan heard of this situation, he condemned the two men, Karagöz and Hacivat, to death. The Karagöz stories are often based on social situations such as a contest or a business deal and the Karagöz puppet is often deceitful, lewd and a little violent - perfect skills to learn for a “hayali”, the puppet master in Turkish, meaning "imaginary" or "image creator”.
In the lecture performance session first we will explain the historical and philosophical background of Karagöz – Turkish Shadow Puppetry and then hold a short performance.
土耳其人尊稱偶戲大師為「hayali」，意為「幻想創造者」。本次活動中，兩位土耳其的皮影戲大師除演出經典影戲，也將帶領觀眾創作自己的影偶和表演。土耳其傳統皮影戲裡的經典角色叫卡拉格茲（Karagöz），意思是「黑眼睛」，他是大老粗，總想著一夕致富，每次惹麻煩都要好朋友哈西瓦特（Hacivat）出面搭救。哈西瓦特滿腹經綸，出口成詩。兩人之間的抬槓是土耳其階級互動的縮影，也是最能逗樂庶民大眾的歡樂橋段。本活動為講座型演出，包含對於土耳其偶戲歷史及特性的介紹，及一小段表演。
