Chapter 287 287 The so-called personality

It was suddenly interrupted during the performance, which was like a sudden power outage during the flip of the roller coaster. It was really disgusting. In the Broadway theater, carrying a camera was a very impolite act, and taking photos was even prohibited by orders, and flashing was a very evil crime.

A flash suddenly lit up at the scene, and the audience all expressed their dissatisfaction with muttering, Hugo and Joseph were no exception. When Hugo turned his head to look to the left side of the first floor, he saw the mysterious guest in his eyes and directly stretched out the middle finger of his hands, expressing his protest in this strong way.

But apart from complaining, the audience could not do anything, and they did not plan to do anything. Everyone quickly turned their heads and turned their eyes to the stage again, preparing to continue watching the performance, but the performance that was still in progress on the stage suddenly stopped. To be precise, Catherine stopped.

"Would you please go out by that gentleman who uses flashlight?" Catherine walked to the front of the stage and said loudly to the position where the flashlight was just on, saying that Catherine was leaning on a crutch and was not walking smoothly, but she still raised her head high and expressed her inner anger in arrogant and righteous words.

The accident made the scene quiet for a moment. The culprit obviously didn't want to stand up and admit his mistake, but Catherine would not allow such a thing to happen. "I'll say it again, go out! Otherwise the performance wouldn't start again!" Catherine said on the stage with a loud voice. This time her words were less polite, and then she repeated it again, "Go out!"

Sure enough, a man stood up in the audience on the left hurriedly and walked out to the theater door with a staggering look. When his figure disappeared into the light and shadow at the door, Catherine walked back to her position, adjusted her breathing, and started to enter the performance state again, bringing all the audience back to the drama of "major problems".

Although Hugo had heard of Catherine as a woman with a strong personality and sharpness, her glorious deeds were widely circulated. Imagine that she dared to slap a top director, then the emergencies just now were not surprising; but even so, Hugo saw Catherine standing on the stage with her own eyes, and her powerful aura did not weaken at all because of her age, which was still jaw-dropping, and even wanted to applaud her.

Maybe many people have personality or even willfulness to describe Catherine, but Hugo is more willing to use the term professional to describe Catherine's behavior just now.

An audience member used flash during the performance, which not only disrespects the performers and interrupted the rhythm of the performance; it also influenced other audiences and influenced everyone's investment. So Katherine expressed her dissatisfaction with the audience instead of the actor and expelled the audience from the theater.

Perhaps, Katherine is a sexually vocal person, but she is also a dedicated actor.

This reminds Hugo of the first half of 2013 when the British veteran actor Helen Mirren performed a stage play in the West End of London. As a result, the noise of the ongoing parade on the street was terrifying and penetrated into the theater with weak walls, causing the audience and performers to suffer. As a result, the actress, who won the Oscar Little Golden Man for playing Elizabeth II (elizabeth.ii), was respected as "Her Majesty the Queen", wore a pearl-inlaid drama and head crown, and walked out of the theater door with a dramatic language and expressed her condemnation righteously, "Quiet! I am performing here, and people have spent a lot of money on tickets!"

Then, the parade became quiet.

In fact, Katherine's actions today have surprising similarities with Helen. While she is domineering, she also shows her dedication and concentration.

Hugo couldn't help but wonder, if he stood on the stage, would he also scold the off-site interference factors because he was too focused on his performance? Although Hugo's personality itself is not the case, who knows whether the result will be like this when he really stood on the stage performance stage of a stage play? However, Hugo could not find the answer in a short time. With his half-barrel of water, it is estimated that it would be difficult for Broadway to invite him to be a part of a certain drama.

Although after the episode just now, Catherine returned to the performance without any problems. She quickly re-entered and continued to perform wonderful performances for the audience. The audience off the scene was obviously very professional, and did not whisper, and immediately returned to the live performance and re-entered her appreciation.

But I don’t know if Catherine’s domineering image just now had an impact. When Hugo watched Catherine’s performance again, words like “strong” and “dominant” always appeared in his mind, which was not consistent with the characters in the play, making Hugo quite amused. Of course, this also made Hugo admire Catherine even more because she could easily change between different roles without a sense of rejection and would not make the audience uncomfortable.

From the reactions of the audience, we can see that Catherine's performance still easily convinced the audience, making the slightly dull second half full of surprises, and even more full of the original profound theme. Although Hugo is not a believer of Catholicism, after experiencing time travel, it is difficult for Hugo to say whether there is any god or ghost in this world. Under Catherine's "persuasion", Hugo couldn't help but start thinking about issues such as life and death, religion and belief. It has to be said that this is the charm of the performance.

When the performance ended, Hugo did not even notice the passage of time and sighed in surprise, "Is this over?" But at the same time, Hugo stood up and applauded immediately to express his excitement, and gave the actors the most sincere appreciation for the wonderful performances.

Joseph jumped up excitedly, slapped his hands hard and quickly like a seal. This kind of Joseph was something that Hugo had never seen before. He could clearly feel the slightly trembling fluctuations of Joseph's body due to being too excited, which made Hugo's smile magnify a little.

Not only Hugo and Joseph, the audience stood up together and gave the warmest applause, including the group of people sitting on Hugo's left hand, the mysterious guest also stood up and politely patted his hands. The big man who was suspected to be asleep also stood up slowly and applauded together in a daze.

There were not many audiences at the scene today, probably less than 200 people, and one of them was driven away by Catherine in the middle, but the audience that was not full of them burst out with the hottest support. The thunderous applause came from the audience's heartfelt cheers. In such a serious and formal occasion as a theater, there was no scream, no whistle, no cheer, only lonely applause, but the continuous applause at the scene was the most direct affirmation of the actors on the stage. The praise composed of just the applause shocked Hugo's heart like a tide. This is the real live performance!

Hugo didn't know how long he had been applauding, but all the audience stood proudly like straight green pine, constantly applauding, maybe ten minutes or fifteen minutes. The passage of time was not important at all. Hugo only knew that his red and swollen hands completely vented his inner excitement. Perhaps, only in occasions like drama and opera, there would be dozens of minutes of applause, because this is the only way for the audience to express their inner emotions and the only channel for the audience to give back to the actors.

Because the applause at the scene was too warm, the actors had to go on stage to end the curtain call three times. Among them, Catherine won a three-minute applause alone, which is the charm of Broadway. The audience's preferences were presented at the first time, and the audience's satisfaction with the actors was so direct and without any concealment. At the same time, the audience's sense of performance was also pure and clear. This was a blow to the actors and was more motivated, and it was enough to become the touchstone for the actors to test the actors' performance.

"Your evaluation of the play just now is very correct." After the applause gradually fell, a voice of chatter came from the left hand. The voice was very special, a little hoarse, but very gentle and not loud, but it seemed a little warm and whispery. When it entered Hugo's ears, a sense of familiarity came to his face. "I was still curious just now, if I had seen you, now it seems that I have not recognized the wrong person."

Hugo subconsciously turned his head and looked over, and said, "Thank you..." Then Hugo saw the man in front of him. In an instant, he seemed to be hit by lightning and stood there. The words behind him were stuck in his throat.

The man in front of him had a pale face, his rosy lips were particularly conspicuous, his nose looked straight and sharp, as if a sharp blade had divided his face into two halves. The unbright eyes were painted with shallow lower eyeliner, and a long black hair was sprinkled on his shoulders at random. At this time, he had put on his top hat to cover about one-third of his face, but even so, this face was still so clear and familiar, even more familiar than Hugo's face.

Although Hugo has lived here for more than a year, he is still a little unfamiliar with his face. He even stares at his face in a daze for many moments, and then asks a question mark on his end, "Who is this?"

But even if Hugo doesn't know his own face, it's impossible for him to not know the face of the man in front of him. The true identity of this man made Hugo, who had experienced many big scenes, suddenly fell into a speechless situation, standing in place like a foolish silence.

The man in front of me is a man who is unique in the world. There is only one man in the long river of music that can never be copied.
