【這不是藝評‧是心得分享】《游泳池(沒水)》揭露人性深處的渴求與惡念 尖銳探問藝術創作的道德界線
文/豆子
這是一齣令人流連忘返,鼓掌叫好的戲,以敘述式的口白,人聲堆疊,肢體律動,簡練的舞台燈光,流暢的音樂節奏,創造出豐富的張力與層次,跳脫出一般劇場的框架,彷彿是極簡的行動藝術融合視覺聲光,解構出觀者靈活的無限想像...相當精彩!!
坐在台下的我,想著自己其實也藏著卑劣的人性,看著飛黃騰達的人們會產生忌妒心,望著承受苦厄的人們會滋生同情心,心底層的矛盾糾結是一種無法說出口的隱私,偽善似乎成了現實的生存之道,在這裡卻層層赤裸的被剝開,是痛楚、是震撼、是無奈、也是一種解脫,原來....大家都有這樣的心境呀,原來這就是"人性"...
游泳池(沒水)是英國劇作家馬克‧瑞文希爾(Mark Ravenhill)於2006年完成的「直面劇場」劇作,細膩的剖析人性偽善和醜惡的一面,講述一群原本彼此賴以維生的藝術創作家,在忌妒心的驅使下,逐步產生內心矛盾交錯的扭曲,漸漸崩壞的友情,探索人性深處的渴求與惡念,並尖銳地提問藝術創作的道德界線。
故事發生在一群從事藝術創作的朋友中,大家對藝術都有各自想望。某天,一位友人因為拍攝了另一位友人的死亡過程而成名、致富,大夥從學生時代累積起的感情瞬間崩裂,在權勢金錢與多年友誼之間,愧疚、嫉妒、自我質疑等情緒漸漸漫開,最終,所有人性最卑鄙黑暗的想法全被攤開,痛楚卻也得到終極解脫。
我相當佩服演員們(李劭婕、林曉函、呂名堯、劉哲維)的體力,八十分鐘無中場休息,全場以肢體的語彙舞動扭轉,倚賴人聲的頻率共振堆疊,巧妙的運用身體轉換場景,四位演員的爆發力與高度的契合,更為本劇增添嘆為觀止的光彩!!
台南人劇團《游泳池(沒水)》,由新銳導演廖若涵以冷冽爽快的手法呈現,全劇俐落地直指人心,犀利痛快地震撼視覺感官,絕對值得你走入劇場細細品味。

這群好朋友在一場葬禮上重逢,又在盛情難卻的誘人邀請下,跨越半個地球,來到這位昔日-好友的游泳池畔,在這個充滿棕櫚樹與陽光的豪奢新天堂再次聚首。一頓敘舊晚餐,開啟深-夜裡一場狂歡派對,卻也引發一場令人驚駭的意外。這場意外更觸發一連串令人發毛的「創-作計畫」。當人生翻盤的契機彷彿近在眼前,這群昔好友會繼續扮演彼此忠實的朋友,還是-會在人生急轉彎處選擇放手一搏?

Mark Ravenhill
Ravenhill is the elder of two sons born to Ted and Angela Ravenhill. He grew up in West Sussex, England and cultivated an interest in theatre early in life, putting on plays with his brother when they were eight and seven, respectively. He studied English and Drama at Bristol University from 1984–1987, and held down jobs as a freelance director, workshop leader and drama teacher.[3]
In 1997, Ravenhill became the literary director of a new writing company, Paines Plough. In 2003, when Nicholas Hytner took over as artistic director of the National Theatre, Ravenhill was brought in as part of his advisory team. In the mid-nineties, Ravenhill was diagnosed as HIV+, his partner of the early 1990s having died from AIDS.[4]
Although he was at the heart of new British playwriting in the 1990s and 2000s, Ravenhill respects historical theatre. He has said that he would like to see directors focus more on the classics and stop producing new plays that don’t have as much substance or meaning.[5] In the same article, Ravenhill posits that directors have forced themselves into the “eternal present”, rather than expanding their reach to the many different cultures and genres of the past that they have to choose from. Ravenhill has a love of traditional pantomime; he presented a Radio 4 documentary about the form and wrote Dick Whittington for the Barbican Theatre in 2006.
Ravenhill's work has transformed and developed in the 2000s. While his work in the 1990s - Shopping and Fucking, Handbag, and Some Explicit Polaroids for example - may be characterised as trying to represent contemporary British society, his later work has become more formally experimental and abstract. His one-man show Product, which toured internationally after its premiere at the 2005 Edinburgh Festival Fringe, is both a satire on the post-9/11 attitudes to terrorism, and a minutely observed reflection on the limits of language and form to capture contemporary reality. His play, The Cut, opened in 2006 at the Donmar Warehouse starring Sir Ian McKellen; it divided critics with its portrait of a world dominated by the administering of a surgical procedure: the country, the year and the procedure are all unspecified.
His earlier short plays for young people, Totally Over You and Citizenship, both written for the National Theatre's National Theatre Connections Programme, continue to be produced.
In November 2007, he announced in the Guardian that for the moment, he would concentrate on writing about heterosexual characters.[6]
In 2008 the Royal Court, The Gate Theatre, the National Theatre, Out of Joint, and Paines Plough collectively presented the seventeen short plays Ravenhill wrote for the 2007 Edinburgh Festival Fringe under the title Ravenhill for Breakfast, retitled as Shoot/Get Treasure/Repeat.[7] They express his ambiguous and politically indirect later style.
In 2009 Mark Ravenhill presented a staged reading of A Life In Three Acts, transcripts of conversations with Bette Bourne, an actor, drag queen and equal rights activist, at the Traverse Theatre, Edinburgh. The following year, he presented readings of this work at St. Ann's Warehouse in Brooklyn, NY and the Soho Theatre in London. Bourne worked with Ravenhill previously on a short play, Ripper, playing Queen Victoria at the Union Theatre in London in 2007.
He is also working on a TV series.
Ravenhill is a regular contributor to the annual Terror Season at the Southwark Playhouse in London, England. His short play The Exclusion Zone premiered in October 2010.
Ravenhill was appointed Associate Director of London's Little Opera House at The King's Head Theatre in September 2010.[2] He played an active role in the venue's relaunch as London's third Opera House along with patron Sir Jonathan Miller, Robin Norton-Hale and Artistic Director Adam Spreadbury-Maher.[8]
In 2012, Mark Ravenhill is to become the Royal Shakespeare Company's Writer in Residence.[9] The same year, he was commissioned by the London Gay Men's Chorus for a piece to mark the choir's 21st anniversary. With composed by Conor Mitchell, the piece, entitled Shadow Time, explores the evolution of mentalities in respect of homosexuality in the lifetime of the Chorus. The piece will be premiered at the Royal Festival Hall, on 6 May 2012 during the Chorus' summer concert: A Band of Brothers.[10]
ITV1's sit-com Vicious is written by Gary Janetti and Mark Ravenhill and shown from April, 2013.
In 2014 Ravenhill wrote a Doctor Who story entitled Of Chaos Time The for Big Finish Productions.
