1. I thought I knew a lot about Hamlet. As a high school student with English literature as one of my main subjects, I have to! Shakespare's Hamlet is probably the most important play by the most important writer in English. Almost everybody knows "To be, or not to be", right Having seen quite a few productions of Hamlet and read the play many times, I was full of confidence -- until the Peking Opera came to town!
1. 我以为我很了解《哈姆雷特》。作为一名高中学生，英语文学是我的主要科目之一，是我必学的内容!莎士比亚的《哈姆雷特》可能是英语中最重要的作家所写的最重要的戏剧。几乎每个人都知道“生存，还是毁灭”，对吧 我看过好几部《哈姆雷特》的影视作品，这部戏剧我也读过好多遍了，因此我充满了信心——直到城里来了京剧表演!

2. Dating back to the 18th century, Peking Opera has over two hundred years of history. Does this mean it's easier than a Shakespeare play to understand To find out the answer, I just had to go and see The Revenge of Prince Zidan -- the Peking Opera version of Hamlet.
2. 京剧可以追溯到18世纪，至今已有两百多年的历史。这是否意味着它比莎士比亚的戏剧更容易理解 为了找到答案，我去看了京剧版的《哈姆雷特》——《王子复仇记》。

3. Starting with an orchestra playing traditional Chinese instruments, the opera brought a completely new sound to my Western ears. At first, I thought what I heard was a violin, but later I learnt that it was an instrument with two strings called jinghu. Then, seeing the main characters come on state, I was surprised! The costumes and masks were amazing. The performers of course sang in Chinese, but the music, exaggerated movements and mime helped get the meanings across to the audience.
3.戏一开场，是乐队弹奏中国传统乐器，我这个西方人的耳朵听到了一种全新的声音。起初我以为我听到的是小提琴的声音，不过后来我才了解到那是一种有两根弦的乐器，叫作京胡。然后，看到主要人物登场时，我感到十分惊奇！那些服饰和脸谱都令人惊艳。当然，演员们的唱词是中文的，但观众可以借助伴奏、夸张的动作和形体模仿来理解表演内容。

The voices themselves sounded really unique -- some of the female voices were so high that I was sure they could break glass! And the stage was really simple: a decorated whip represented a horse, and a screen with Chinese characters, a study. Using such techniques, the opera had transformed a small stage into the whole universe.
那些唱腔听起来非常独特 -- 有的女生音调之高，我觉得都能震碎玻璃了！舞台的布置非常简单：有装饰的马鞭就代表马，写有汉字的屏风就代表书房。通过这些方法，京剧将小小的舞台变成了浩瀚的宇宙。

4. Easily my favourite part of the show was how the characters moved on stage. I had never seen Prince Hamlet do a backflip before! That was simply incredible. It was so dazzling and energetic that I wasn't sure if the characters were performers or athletes! Everyone was clapping.
4.毫无疑问，演出中我最喜欢的部分是人物在舞台上的动作。我可从没见过哈姆雷特王子表演后空翻！这可真是不可思议！那眼花缭乱的动作充满力量，我都不知道扮演这些人物的到底是演员还是运动员！大家都使劲儿鼓掌。

5. Before experiencing The Revenge of Prince Zian, I wasn't sure if I would enjoy it. But, in fact, I was on the edge of my seat! Feeling the strong emotions of love, anger, fear and grief in the performance, I could easily recognise the theme of Hamlet. So, if you want to see a show that combines music, singing, drama, poetry and costume design with explosive effect, The Revenge of Prince Zidan ticks all the right boxes!
5.在亲身体验《王子复仇记》之前，我不知道自己会不会喜欢(京剧)。可实际上，我看得超级投入！通过从表演中感受到的爱、怒、惧、哀等强烈情感，我很容易就能看出(戏中体现的)《哈姆雷特》的主题。所以，如果你想要看一场融合了音乐、演唱、戏剧、诗歌以及惊艳的服饰的表演，《王子复仇记》再合适不过了！
