作品名稱來自張健對《碾玉觀音》的評論。

 

姚一葦（1922-1997）劇作中經常使用為既有文本翻案，或是為劇本內角色扮裝，製造出雙重（double）效果的編劇手法，此手法使不可能回避的角色化與人性對於角色化的抗拒，成為共同拉扯著推進情節的矛盾力量。看似心理測驗的牆面圖像，以及鑲嵌於牆上的聲音內容，包含《碾玉觀音》、《孫飛虎搶親》、《紅鼻子》三部劇作中，特別能顯現上述雙重效果的選段，此外，也包含《趙南棟》，以及姚一葦、陳映真彼此之間基於創作及入獄經驗的陳述：姚一葦為《陳映真全集》所寫的序，提及讀到《趙南棟》時的投射，而陳映真為姚一葦所作的悼文，則提及在獄中讀到《紅鼻子》的觸動。

 

觀眾在依循著數輪心理測驗的「是／否」選項之後，將被導引到與上述文本的聲音段落。透過並置姚、陳兩人的創作，以及帶著各自入獄經驗對於對方創作的理解，人性及角色化之間的難題從虛構文本外溢到現實處境，似乎成為在批判不可為的年代中，創作者暴露出其針貶意圖的痕跡。

The title of the work is derived from Zhang Jian's commentary on The Emerald Bodhisattva.

 

Yao Yi-Wei(1922-1997) often employed a scriptwriting technique in his plays where he reinterprets existing texts or disguises characters within the script to create a double effect. This technique makes the unavoidable process of characterization and the resistance of human nature to being characterized become a contradictory force that pushes the plot forward. The wall images, which seem like psychological tests, and the audio content embedded in the wall include excerpts from three of Yao’s plays — The Emerald Bodhisattva, Sun, Fei-Hu, and Red Nose — that particularly manifest this double effect. In addition, it also includes Zhao Nandong and statements made by Yao Yi-Wei and Chen Yingzhen, based on their experiences of creation and imprisonment. Yao Yi-Wei’s preface for The Complete Works of Chen Yingzhen mentions his projection while reading Zhao Nandong, and Chen Yingzhen’s elegy for Yao Yi-Wei mentions his emotional reaction to reading Red Nose while in prison.

 

After following several rounds of "yes/no" options in a psychological test, the audience is guided to the audio excerpts from the above-mentioned texts. By juxtaposing the works of Yao and Chen and their mutual understanding of each other’s creations based on their respective experiences of imprisonment, the dilemma between human nature and characterization spills over from fictional texts into real-life situations, seemingly exposing traces of the creators’ critical intentions during an era when it was impossible to criticize.
