The Return of Traditional Crosstalk
Adjust font size:
The traditional performance art of crosstalk is making a comeback with the help of crosstalk specialist, Guo Degang.
He performed at the PLA Opera House on January 11 and 12, 2006. Although the performance wasn't formally advertised, many turned up and jammed the box office trying to get tickets. Tickets were sold for 20 yuan (US$2.4), but had a black market value of as much as 300 yuan (US$36). Response was so good that the theater decided to add another performance on January 25.
Guo doesn't belong to an official group or troupe, and has never performed on TV. But attending his crosstalk performance is becoming increasingly trendy in Beijing, especially for young executives and school children who load their MP3 players with his works.
He might not be mainstream, but Guo was able to command 25 encores on January 11, adding some three hours to the originally scheled two-hour performance.
Traditional crosstalk
Crosstalk, xiangsheng in Chinese (literally, "face and voice"), is a traditional form of comic dialogue that came about in China's imperial Qing Dynasty (1644-1911). Crosstalk, usually performed by two people, also can be performed by one person or even a group of people.
The performers will try their best to make fun or take advantage of the other/s with the skillful play of words, a technique that brings to the fore the craft and wit of the Chinese language.
In the old days in Tianjin, Beijing, and elsewhere, temple fairs and street markets were where crosstalkers performed. More famous performers were invited to perform in teahouses and theaters.
Guo said that, in those days, "the average crosstalker could earn more than the total earnings of ten rickshaw pullers".
Crosstalk pieces draw on every aspect of Chinese culture, from history and folk tales to contemporary social issues. Although there are hundreds of pieces in the traditional repertoire, they are usually edited to suit the times and the audience.
The critical junctures in development
During the Cultural Revolution (1966-76), the art was criticized as decadent and belonging to the old society. Lots of crosstalk works were lost ring this time.
Crosstalk has also seen a dramatic decline in recent years with fewer scripts and performers. Few live shows are performed at theaters, and only the really famous performers are invited to do their thing on TV. Even then, it's usually only once a year ring the Spring Festival Gala.
Their dilemma is the same as that faced by other practitioners of traditional Chinese folk art; in a rapidly developing society where people have more and more entertainment choices, traditional art forms are increasingly unattractive.
Guo arrived in Beijing from Tianjin in 1995 to embark on his crosstalk career, only to find that the art form was on the decline.
The rejuvenation of crosstalk
In 1995, Guo chanced upon a teahouse where he found several young people performing crosstalk.
Being a crosstalker himself, he couldn't resist taking to the stage. Graally, more and more people came to the teahouse to see him perform. He soon found himself playing to audiences numbering more than 100 in a teahouse that could only accommodate 80.
As his popularity grew, Guo pondered the future of his art.
"Traditional crosstalk is at least half an hour long, but performances are no longer than five minutes on TV, which kills much of the story. TV is part of the fast-food culture and crosstalk is a face-to-face art form -- it needs interaction, and is not suited to TV," Guo said.
He was determined to bring it back to its roots, the teahouse and theater.
In 1996, Guo and some young crosstalk actors founded Deyun Crosstalk Association aimed at returning crosstalk to teahouses and theaters. Over the next ten years, the association organized countless performances in teahouses across Beijing. Despite their growing popularity, Guo ensured that ticket prices were kept low to make the art form accessible to everyone. Tickets to his performances are still 20 yuan today.
Guo said that training to be a crosstalk actor requires an inordinate amount of hard work. In the old days, children who wanted to learn crosstalk had to live in the crosstalk master's home. Only after seven or eight years of rigorous training were the more talented ones allowed to perform with their masters on stage. It would take about another sixteen years before young actors forged styles of their own. Guo added that a crosstalk actor didn't usually find fame and fortune until well into his 40s.
To preserve the art form, the association has recorded more than 600 traditional crosstalk pieces, while the Complete Collection of Chinese Crosstalk recorded by all famous crosstalk masters, from the fourth to the eighth generations, only contains 400 pieces.
And in keeping with technology and modern times, the association set up a BBS site (http://www.guodegang.org/bbs/?u=350) on the Internet where fans can download recordings and discuss performances with actors.
Guo hopes that this means a revival for the dying art form, and that through the association's efforts, more young people will learn to appreciate it and perhaps train to be crosstalkers themselves.

Crosstalk magic leaves crowds delirious
Adjust font size:
Magicians performing at the recently concluded World Championships of Magic in Beijing certainly wowed audiences with their sleight of hand. The show also brought an ancient stage craft -- known as crosstalk -- to the attention of a younger public. Judging by the enthusiastic response, the two art forms seem made for each other. Now, local entertainers have begun blending magic acts into their own traditional crosstalk routines.
The Minglehui Crosstalk Club is one of Beijing's most popular comedy clubs. In recent weeks, comedians performing there have taken their cues from the magic championships, and have begun trying their hand at a little abracadabra themselves. Famous acts, such as the world-renowned magician David Copperfield, are gleefully parodied. And the impressive visual impact often leaves audiences rolling in the aisles.
For centuries, crosstalk has been a popular entertainment tradition across northern China. The comedians often hold audiences spellbound with their original perspective on the latest popular topics.
Adding magic to crosstalk, the performers hope to attract more young people, while retaining the original flavor of their craft. The club is now trying to acquire some professional magic props in order to put on an even more spectacular show.
