The restless hormones of adolescence seem to be an eternal theme of writing, about love, about friendship, about sex, about self, about confusion...
The well-received "Ordinary People" at the beginning of the year gave us "ordinary love owners" comfort and belonging, but "Excitement", which is about to return in the warm-up period, will break all "ordinary youth prologues" and completely make you fall into You can't imagine the negative pain of youth.
"Excitement" is mainly developed from the perspective of the heroine played by "Zendaya", and her monologue runs through the whole play. As a work of a group portrait drama, the story mainly tells the road of self-redemption of drug addict Rue (played by Zendaya) and various "problem" youths around her.
Rue is a bipolar patient whose condition was exacerbated by the death of her father. Rue, who was not treated in time, began to abuse drugs and became addicted to drugs. This also explains the scene at the beginning of the story where Rue just came back from rehab.
The English title "Euphoria" translates as "excited" or "intoxicated". On the one hand, it shows Rue's extremely excited state due to long-term drug use, and on the other hand, it also implies the intoxicated living state of this group of teenagers.
However, this girl like an angel broke into Rue's intoxicated life on a bicycle, lighting up her life and the show.
Her name is Jules, she is a transgender, and I think she is more valuable to discuss than the heroine.
The presence of Jules in the play has a sense of splendor with a dreamy color, a mermaid hair color, always exaggerated and exquisite eye makeup, endless beautiful costumes, and the background sound of Japanese comics from time to time in her room, all show that She is a Western teenage lover of Japanese anime culture. When she turned down the female lead, she said she wanted to watch "Magic Girl Madoka" at home.
This deeply subcultural LGBT character presents a sharp contradiction, her confidence and beauty and what she likes and what she stands for is unacceptable.
Compared with the traditional issues of adolescence, the face-up and guidance of the LGBT youth group proposed by this play is obviously more progressive.
I was even more pleasantly surprised by the discussion of weight, appearance, sexual attractiveness and self-perception by another female character on the show.
As a traditional school drama "loser", Kat has obesity problems, average appearance, few friends in school, and relies on writing rotten articles on the Internet to vent her inferiority complex in real life.
But at the same time, she was portrayed as a character who tried to defy traditional definitions. A chat on the Internet made her understand that the beauty of women in the world is diverse. Since then, Kat has dressed herself confidently and boldly, without fear of the eyes of others.
Still searching for self-identity and pretending to be confident and not caring about everything, she doesn't know that she has been favored by the handsome little brother.
/At last/
Every character in this play is extremely full, and their youthful surface full of holes has a heart worth going deep into.
There is Net who was raised by his father to be a tough guy but found out that his father is gay.
Kathy, who has a typical dedicated personality, is called a slut
There is Mandy who is extremely lacking in love under the appearance of mean girl.
They may not be typical "us" but exist as part of "us".
Everyone has their own trauma, whether it comes from your family or the environment around you, and more importantly, how do you deal with your trauma, because often it can turn into loneliness, anger, violence, sex, poison......
