The basic etiquette of the theater is to be quiet, upright, elegant, and keep your manners. During the performance, never leave your seat; if you have to stand up, you must keep a stooped, light, polite, and apologetic posture, not only to avoid interrupting the performance, but also to respect the audience.

Renly abides by such etiquette. Drama, opera, ballet, discourse, concerts, etc., these art forms are given the name of "elegance", not because the art itself is superior, but because of the strictness and correctness of the relevant etiquette, which associates the elegant art with the street. Art to distinguish.

Both are arts, there is no difference between the two, but they are suitable for different groups of people. Just like when aristocrats participate in street art performances, they also need to take off their hats, loosen their shirts, and roll up their sleeves to have fun with the people; Conversely, when civilians attend elegant art occasions, they also need to dress up and attend with proper etiquette. Respect, it's mutual.

"Edge of Tomorrow" filming progressed slightly faster than expected, ending filming 40 minutes earlier. So Renly didn't delay his trip and went straight to the theater to audition for "Les Miserables." Entering the theater space, the halo of Hollywood fades away. Here, he is an actor, a simple actor, even this version of "Les Miserables" is produced by Hollywood.

It's just that the development of things seems to exceed Renly's expectations, first Nina Gold, and then Cameron McIntosh. Renly was also helpless.

"Mr. McIntosh." Facing Cameron's greeting, Renly politely held the other's right hand and whispered, then gestured for the vacant seat next to him, and responded with his eyes——

What should I do if I meet an acquaintance during a theater performance? He nodded to say hello, made a gesture with his eyes, then sat down quietly, and then met and said hello again during the intermission.

Now, that's what Renly did; Cameron also took advantage of the opportunity to sit down beside Renly, with a small smile in his eyes, and whispered, "You came earlier than expected. Or, on time. some."

Renly laughed dumbly and didn't answer. He raised his hands and gestured to the stage. Unintentionally, they had interrupted the rhythm of the actors' performances on the stage. They could either quiet down so that the performance could continue, or suspend the audition and have a conversation. This is the way of theatre etiquette.

Cameron chuckled twice, "Hollywood's lawlessness made me forget these rules." He raised his head and said loudly, "Sorry, the audition continues." But the next second, Cameron noticed , the crew members sitting in the front area, one or two are turning their heads frequently, constantly casting their eyes, which makes Cameron laugh dumbly, "It seems that everyone is absent-minded. Then, take a five-minute break, and then the audition starts again. ."

After the announcement, Cameron turned to look at Renly, "Obviously, I'm not the only one who has a strong curiosity."

The smile at the corner of Renly's mouth paused for a moment, then rose, responding in a mocking manner, "So, have you found my third eye? I hope the water in Hollywood hasn't mutated me."

"Haha." Cameron chuckled twice, such humor really made one feel relaxed, but it made Cameron look at Renly more, "You know what? You are more than I thought. Young." Renly's eyebrows rose slightly, not knowing what to do in response, Cameron smiled and closed his chin, "Praise, this is a compliment."

"Les Miserables" has had three rounds of auditions, all in the form of audition video. In order to create this classic masterpiece, the main creators of the crew are cautious and cautious, hoping to select the most suitable actors, and at the same time have the Hollywood fame attributes.

Like Hugh Jackman.

Renly sent two audition videos before and after, the first with Epney's excerpts; the second with Javert's excerpts. This is a very strange choice, but it is not just curious. On the contrary, the two videos show Renly's solid basic skills and plenty of dramatic tension. It seems that in the past few years, Renly has not lost the polishing of the basic skills; and the excellent performance of Hollywood has brought more inspiration and injected a fuller and more vivid soul into the whole performance.

One is a young woman, deeply in love and unable to extricate herself; the other is a middle-aged man, who insists on inner justice, but suffers under the wheel of the times.

Two very different characters, Renly showed excellent control and interpretation, enough to make people ignore his age, and even his gender. What is even more commendable is that the two excerpts are not the same interpretation of the original story, but incorporate Renly's own interpretation, which makes the audience chew on it.

As the creator of the classic drama version of "Les Miserables", Cameron's understanding of drama is naturally extremely profound. He could sense the difference in Renly's performance, and reflexively wanted to criticize, to refute, to deny, because Renly overturned the character he had built over the past three decades; but after calming down , but it has derived more possibilities, but it has made Cameron interested.

For the first time, Cameron became curious. It's not because Renly's performance is too shocking, there are countless veteran actors in the West End and Hollywood, but Renly still hasn't reached such a high level; but because he is looking forward to Renly's audition performance on stage, the feeling in the video is always there. There is a layer of veil, which makes it difficult to see clearly. Only in the theater can you make a judgment when you appreciate it up close.

Coupled with the magical rise of the past two years, Renly, who is only 22 years old, has gathered too many auras on his body-mysterious aura,

The halo of genius, the halo of invincibility, all of which make curiosity even more irresistible. Not just Cameron, Nina Gold, Tom Hooper, etc., but most of the main creative staff of the crew are like this.

After sitting down face to face, the first thought in Cameron's mind was this: Really too young. Looking back at the performance on the tape now, the surprise is even more turbulent.

"In this play, which role are you auditioning for?" Just a few simple words of greeting. Cameron has been rolling around in London's West End all his life, so he knows all about the theater etiquette. Right to the point.

Renly did not joke again, and simply gave the answer, "Jean-Valjean." Immediately, Renly could see the surprise in Cameron's eyes without any concealment, and it spread like ripples, as if I heard it for the first time today. This made Renly raise his eyebrows slightly, "At the end of the second audition video, after the performance, I first introduced myself, and then explained the information that I wanted to challenge the role. Could it be that I deleted it during the post-editing of the video? Lost?"

Cameron paused slightly for two seconds, caught the serious look in Renly's eyes, then turned his surprise into a smile, and could not help but gently retract his chin. Renly mentioned it, of course.

If it was a casual twenty-two-year-old who said that he wanted to audition for Jean Valjean, everyone would regard it as a big joke, or even an ignorant performance, which really made people feel unhappy; but this The young man is Renly Hall, the most talked-about new-generation actor in Hollywood in the past three years, and after he has given two wonderful performances and proved his ability to control the role, so what?

crazy? Arrogant? arrogant? pride? Or...confidence?

This is also the reason why Cameron came up to meet Renly for the first time, and it is also the reason why the rest of the crew are in high spirits. Is Renly a genius or a lunatic?

Twenty-two years old, can play Marius, can play Enjolras, but... Jean Valjean?

From impossible to possible, at least Renly broke the conventional concept with a surprise gesture. Cameron did not agree, but he did not immediately reject it. "So, what are you preparing for today?"

"As requested, I prepared Jean Valjean's aria. However, I opened up all possibilities and made other preparations, hoping to break some prejudice shackles." Renly's understatement, but with strong confidence.

Because he knows what his challenge really means.

From a purely cosmetic point of view, whether it is a drama or a movie, under the modern makeup technology, age is not a problem. This is especially true in dramas. Thanks to the distance from the stage, the makeup of the actors is completely concealed under the lights, and the audience cannot tell the difference; but the problem is never the makeup, but the power of the performance. Jean Valjean is not just a middle-aged He is just a man. His vicissitudes, tribulations, and pains are the tragedy of the whole era, and the transformation of his character is the top priority of the whole drama.

Twenty-two years old means young, which means immature. Perhaps challenging Hamlet was the right choice; but Jean Valjean, it was a maddening decision.

So he must be fully prepared to meet all possible potential challenges.

"You know it's a big, big yawn." Cameron didn't hide his doubts, yawning was actually bragging. But then he saw Renly's confident attitude, no panic, no excuse, no eagerness, but a calmness in his heart, which made Cameron chuckle lightly, "Then, you must not Mind if I change your audition on the spot?"

This is an interrogative sentence, but also an affirmative sentence.

Renly's heart began to beat wildly. He knew that an absolute opportunity had come. The curious mind of the two audition videos finally knocked on the door. Next, look at today's stage performance.

"Marius and Enjolras, you choose one." Cameron raised his chin, indicating the direction of the stage, "Perform the 'red and black' bridge." Cameron said in a simple sentence After finishing the explanation, he turned to look at Renly, and was silent for a moment, as if he was giving Renly the time to choose, but his playful eyes were filled with incomparable certainty.

Renly knew that the choice was not in his hands. Therefore, he chose to remain silent.

Sure enough, Cameron smiled and nodded, "Enjolras. You play Enjolras. The one on stage is Marius."
