摘　　要：神庙剧场是指在神庙里建立戏台,并有观剧场地的场所。神庙与剧场的结合在中外早期戏剧发展史上具有一定的普遍性。随着戏剧艺术的发展以及社会历史的演进,国外的戏剧演出场所后来大多割断了与神庙的纠葛而形成独立的剧场。但中国的神庙剧场却继续发展并不断完善,伴随了中国戏曲史的始终,成为绵延不绝、范围最广、数量最多的剧场形式,形成了世界上独特的戏剧文化现象。本文对中国神庙剧场之神灵供奉、建筑结构、演出习俗进行了概括性的阐释。The temple theater refers to a venue on the premises of the temple proper, consisting both a stage and a viewing space. The symbiosis of the temple and the theater is a universal phenomenon in world theatre history. However, whereas theatre venues in most other cultures have experienced a separation of the temple and the theatre and the consequent independent establishment of the playhouse, in China the temple theatre persisted and improved throughout the development of its traditional theatre to become the most continuous, prevalent, and most numerously instanced theatre venue. This paper seeks to offer a general survey on the site-honored deities, architectural features, and performance protocols in the Chinese theatre temple.
