昆曲：孔尚任《桃花扇》
A love story between a high-end escort and a promising young scholar that was complicated by dynastic loyalty, personal political positions, etc. (Couldn't think of a Roman equivalent.) Happened at the end of the 17th century, when the Ming dynasty was taken over by the Qing dynasty.
I first saw the performance about 12 years ago in Nanjing. The singing, music, dancing, and the plot were all superb. 大约是97年或98年时在南京的兰苑剧场看过石小梅、胡锦芳的版本。虽然不是唯美的青春版，但是词曲清丽、唱作俱佳，感人至深。《桃花扇》不是普通的才子佳人故事，胜在气节二字。胡老师的李香君柔中见刚，凌然令人起敬。连看两场，一直不能忘怀。
【鴈过声】萧然，美人去远，重门锁，云山万千，知情只有闲莺燕。尽着狂，尽着颠，问着他一双双不会传言。熬煎，才待转，嫩花枝靠着疏篱颤。
【南鲍老催】想当日猛然舍抛，银河渺渺谁架桥，墙高更比天际高。书难捎，梦空劳，情无了，出来路儿越迢遥。
