Summary: | 碩士 === 中國文化大學 === 戲劇研究所 === 92 === The thesis consists of two parts. Part One discusses children’s creativity and mentality, with an emphasis on the 9 to 12 age level. This will be followed by an analysis of the characteristics and dramaturgy of the Peking Opera and those of the modern children’s theatre, in order to find out what and how to borrow from the latter to enrich the Peking Opera for children, and how to modify the traditional classification of character-types, acting conventions and techniques to suit the children today, who are mostly not family with this traditional theatre. Part Two is the original script of a Peking Opera for Children entitled Bao Bien-tian, the Foolish Governor, who manages not only to find out which of two mothers is the real one but also to solve the judicial difficulty between law and love of kinship.
