歌仔戲丑角陳勝在的表演藝術

表演藝術是一門將「人」置身於作品之中的藝術，即便有實況錄影或錄音，仍無法取代現場演出所帶給觀眾的臨場感，於是表演藝術連結了「演員」與「觀眾」的密切關係，而演員的成就與否通常也取決於觀眾喜好的取向，形成一種「明星藝術」。本論文主要研究對象為享有「臺灣第一丑角」美譽的陳勝在，其以靈活即興的表演風格與熱絡的觀眾互動，使之一反逆勢於坤生當道的主流文化中異軍突起，成為深受歡迎的演員，在歌仔戲界佔有極重要的地位，近年更於舞臺劇跨界演出而獲得廣大迴響。本研究欲探討之方向有三：陳勝在的個人背景與特質對其表演之影響、表演技巧的統整與分析，以及造成其傑出表現之因素。筆者透過演員訪談以及文獻資料的輔助，從而瞭解陳勝在的成長背景、家庭教育所造成的影響、個人特質與優勢，並就現場表演與影音資料的觀察，歸納出舞臺表演中製造「笑果」的慣用手法與表現型態，其中肢體的身段特色包括步伐與站姿的「輕浮」狀態、經常出現的手部小動作與女性化特質，以及自創身段的表演身法和動漫化的外部呈現方式；表演技巧部份則指出了情緒、節奏與呼吸為掌控氛圍的要素。本文也進一步討論陳勝在的創作理念，並從作品分析中，統整其表演詮釋的創造思考進程與實踐。
