Experience from the professional variety show of Vlora, Parodia has entered the variety show as a pleasant interweaving of song, dance and poetic text, as one of its forms of expression. Although the parody achieves its goal, a great deal of work is needed on the part of the writer, who should not be satisfied with the parody of the original text of the song while maintaining the original metric, but in the successful use of figures and humorous lines in adaptation to the theme of the song. Of course, the main role is played by the poetic text, therefore the actor should also study it well, highlighting the most important moments of the content. Since the melody in the parody is an important element in completing the ideas of the text, it requires attention from the actor for the most accurate execution, maintaining the purity of the intonation and the accuracy of the tempo. These important requirements for the interpretation of the parody have been taken into account by our variety actresses, so they have given us excellent, beautiful and dignified interpretations that have left an impression on the viewers. On this occasion, let's mention the interpretations of couplets and parodies by our actresses L. Kruta (Deserving Artist), E Shtrepi (Deserving Artist), M. Ferra, M. Mita, etc. Since the creation of this professional troupe, these actresses have been the most popular performers of parody and have always valued it as an important artistic form. Their requests were for a concise text, especially rich in elements of popular humor, without exaggeration and vulgarity. They have done a good job in choosing the music according to the text of the parody to complement it in order to highlight the ideas, that is, as an element that must be submitted to the demands of the text, as an assistant to it. From the rich experience of veteran parodists, we have learned not to sing the parody, but to interpret it, using different artistic tools such as recitative, dialogue within the melody, interruption of the melody, repetitions of a motif to emphasize the climactic moments of the text, and others. Relying on the best achievements of these artists, the young parodists Agron Hamo, Muhamet Lika, Mane Lumani, Afri m Agalliu and Rita Rudaj, enriched it with new elements of popular humor and melodies of southern Albania. Agron Hamo stands out for the elegant interpretation of the parody, with a restrained gesticulation, pure diction, with a melodious and well intoned voice. From the repertoire of this parodist, we remember "Gjylen", "Zalon", "Bureaucrat", "Weddings", "The History of the Finger" and others. With love and interest, the audience awaits the double, triple, quadruple parodies of our parodists, such as the "Hunters" cycles; "Photographers", "Bojaxhinjte", "Fishermen" and others, which have won the admiration of artedashes inside and outside the district. In these parodies, the spontaneous humor and skills of M. Likes' impersonators stand out; the salty jokes of M, Liman, the masterful transitions from one figure to another of Afrim Agalli, the finesse of Agron Hamo, and the accuracy in pronunciation and the sense of proportion of the actress Rita Rudaj. The success of parody and pop songs, more than other forms of this art, need a fruitful collaboration of the authors, librettist, director, actor and music director, to harmonize the creative abilities of each one at the best quality level. interpretation and content. It often happens that parodists get carried away by the beautiful melody and neglect the interpretation. In the sung text of the parodies, things said and heard are often repeated or allegedly to create humor, the actor adds jokes from his pocket, outside the text created by the author. The conditions are now ripe and it is possible for the variety shows to create shows with recitals by parodists who have created artistic individuality, work to preserve the freshness of the interpretation and the humorous effect. ____________
