The Drama Festival will run in and outside China from June 20 to July 7. Sixty-five works will be put on both in theatres and online. "The festival is all about imagination connecting drama with the latest technology," says Liu Chang, manager of the festival, who is also a drama director. Technology has improved design, performances and so on. Artists like Liu are't sure if the new technology can take drama to the future.
A Chinese play directed by Meng Jinghui, inspired(赋予灵感) by the two-part drama Faust by Johann Wolfgang von Goethe, will be on as the opening play of the festival. In the first half of the play, Meng introduces the story to 400 real audiences(观众) sitting in the Fengchao Theatre in Beijing. The second half of the play will have more audiences, who use their cellphones, computers and headsets to be part of the play online.
Zhang Zhouxiang is a director full of imagination. His work, inspired by Hieronymus Bosch's painting The Garden of Earthly Delights, will be shown from June 30 to July 2. Supported by AI, audiences can explore the fictitious scene, similar to the feeling in the real world, as the painting describes.
"The stage design is done by AI, which is like an assistant realizing the ideas of me and my team," says Liu. "Now I try to use the latest technology, such as ChatGPT, to write the script, and I am still working on it because the language model is difficult to understand."
Now technology is playing a more and more important role. Many artists want to use it to improve drama. They are very interested in the relationship between people and the latest technology, especially when connected in drama—a scene to dream.
