莆仙(xian)戲名劇《團圓之后》,源于《不(bu)用刑審書》卷四《張縣令設計翻(fan)案》篇,又名《父(fu)子恨》,是劇作(zuo)家陳仁鑒在(zai)1956年(nian)據莆仙(xian)戲傳統劇目《施天文》(又名《三天媳婦害婆婆》)整(zheng)理改編的,福建仙(xian)游(you)縣鯉聲劇團同年(nian)首演。
此(ci)劇(ju)在(zai)清(qing)末民(min)初(chu),福建仙游(you)莆仙戲振瑞(rui)班、雙玉班均常(chang)演出。劇(ju)情:某(mou)婦新(xin)婚三日(ri),婆(po)母(mu)自盡。新(xin)婦到(dao)案(an)自認忤逆,縣(xian)令投(tou)其(qi)入獄……縣(xian)令借故杖某(mou)衙役妻,并與新(xin)婦同監。役妻大罵縣(xian)官,婦慰之,并吐肺腑(fu),始知婆(po)母(mu)與人通(tong)奸,被她觸見而(er)自盡,于是案(an)定(ding)。
上世紀(ji)50年代,陳仁(ren)鑒在福建(jian)(jian)仙游莆仙戲(xi)劇團當編劇時,偶然發現(xian)了(le)從民間搜集的(de)(de)劇本(ben)《施(shi)天(tian)文》。原劇系(xi)公案戲(xi),寫施(shi)天(tian)文的(de)(de)妻子柳(liu)氏(shi)撞見婆(po)婆(po)偷情(qing),婆(po)婆(po)無(wu)顏自盡。為(wei)保婆(po)婆(po)名節,柳(liu)承(cheng)認是因自己頂撞婆(po)婆(po)而致(zhi)其自盡。后(hou)來,知縣復審,終于探(tan)明隱(yin)情(qing)捉(zhuo)出奸夫(fu),使將(jiang)被問斬的(de)(de)柳(liu)氏(shi)重獲(huo)自由。陳仁(ren)鑒認為(wei),原戲(xi)宣揚的(de)(de)是封建(jian)(jian)禮教,決定改(gai)變藝術表現(xian)形式,以控訴封建(jian)(jian)禮教對人性(xing)的(de)(de)迫害。于是,他將(jiang)這出戲(xi)改(gai)編為(wei)《團圓之后(hou)》。
在(zai)(zai)《團圓(yuan)之后(hou)》劇本中(zhong)(zhong),陳仁鑒將施(shi)天文(wen)改名(ming)施(shi)佾(yi)生作為(wei)主角。施(shi)在(zai)(zai)考中(zhong)(zhong)狀元后(hou),為(wei)年輕守寡的母(mu)親葉氏請(qing)旨旌表(biao)。但是(shi),葉氏在(zai)(zai)婚前就與鄭(zheng)司(si)(si)成(cheng)(cheng)有情(qing),一直未斷。在(zai)(zai)施(shi)佾(yi)生婚后(hou)第三(san)天深(shen)夜,葉氏和鄭(zheng)司(si)(si)成(cheng)(cheng)商量欲了斷前緣以保(bao)名(ming)節(jie),但鄭(zheng)不肯。第二天清晨(chen),施(shi)的新(xin)婚妻子(zi)柳氏向婆婆請(qing)安時(shi)撞見(jian)鄭(zheng)司(si)(si)成(cheng)(cheng),葉氏羞(xiu)愧(kui)難(nan)當(dang),懸梁自(zi)盡。為(wei)了施(shi)家(jia)聲譽,施(shi)命(ming)柳氏暫時(shi)認(ren)罪,其(qi)后(hou)又(you)不忍妻子(zi)冤(yuan)死(si),遂向縣令求情(qing)。最后(hou),為(wei)保(bao)施(shi)家(jia)祖(zu)澤和母(mu)親名(ming)節(jie),施(shi)欲毒死(si)鄭(zheng)司(si)(si)成(cheng)(cheng),卻發現鄭(zheng)乃其(qi)生父。于是(shi),他將毒酒灌進(jin)了自(zi)己口中(zhong)(zhong)。
