Boy: Just a moment, Mum. It’s my favourite tale. I wish I were there in the fairy-tale.

Music. Lights go down.

A group of children is singing Christmas carol “Holy night”.

Silent night,
Holy night,
All is calm
All is bright
Round yon virgin mother and child,
Holy infant so tender and mild.
Sleep in heavenly peace
Sleep in heavenly peace.
In the forest. (slide “Winter Forest”)

A BOY  is looking around her with great interest.

 Boy l: Where am I? I can’t believe my eyes. Is it a fairy-tale? Oh, it’s cold here. Where shall I go?

A white rabbit appears on the stage. He is in a hurry. He is looking at his watch and taking it in and out of his waistcoat.

Rabbit: Oh, dear, oh dear! I’ll be too late!

 boy: What? A rabbit with a pocket and a watch in it? Of course, I’m in a tale. Who’s ever seen a rabbit with a watch?

 boy: Mister Rabbit, wait for me, please!

Music.

Lights go down.

King`s palace. (slide “Palace”)

The King  is sitting at the desk. There is a blackboard near the desk. Rabbit comes through the gates and runs into the palace. The Boy enters and hides nearby.

Rabbit: Good evening, Your Majesty! I am on time (bows). Let’s start our lesson. May I ask you to write down four irregular verbs?

King: All right. Dictate!

Rabbit:

Break-broke-broken
Speak-spoke-spoken
Begin-began-begun

Chancellor comes.

Chancellor: Good evening, Your Majesty! May I ask you to put Your signature? To four edicts only.

King: Write! Well! But then I won’t write – begin-began-begun. Give me your papers!

Chancellor: Thank you very much, Your Majesty!

King: And what shall I write?

Chancellor: Either “execute” or “forgiveness”.

King (counts): E-xe-cu-te, for-gi-ve-ness. I shall write “execute” – it is shorter.

 boy comes out: Stop it! What have you written?

King: Who are you? How dare you speak to me like this? I am your King

 boy: You executed a person and didn’t think about him!

King:  I can’t write and think at the same time!

 boy: It isn’t necessary. First you should think and then you should write.

King: If I do that, I shall think and think and think and then I’ll go mad.

 boy: Nonsense! And besides, you are not my King. I am not from here. I am from Russia.

King: Russia? Where is it? Oh, I know, your people live on the other side of the Earth and they walk with their heads downward.

 boy: Do you study at school? You don’t know Geography at all. (slide “The map of Russia”)Russia is the largest country in the world with a long and interesting history and culture. Do you know how Russian people celebrated Christmas traditionally?

  Russian people made up a lot of fairy-tales. One of them we prepared for you in a modern version. Can you guess the tale?

King: Why should I know it? Mr. Rabbit knows it well.

Rabbit: It’s Russian folk-tale “The Turnip”. But I hardly guessed it.

King: As for me I know Math.

 Boy (writing at the blackboard): How much is six multiplied by six?

King: Six times six is eleven. Mr. Rabbit, is it OK?

Rabbit (sadly): OK, Your Majesty.

 boy (writing): Multiply eight by eight, please.

King: Three.

 Boy: Awful!

King: And I know Biology very well.

boy: Then answer, when do snowdrops appear in the forest?

Rabbit whispers: In April.

King: Snowdrops? Of course, in December, because snow falls in December.

 Boy: You are wrong. It’s impossible. Snowdrops blossom in April.

King: OK. I want April now. I like snowdrops very much. I have never seen them.

Rabbit: April will come soon. You have to wait only three months or 90 days.

King: 90 days! But I can’t wait! Tomorrow we are going to have a New Year’s party. I want to have snowdrops for this party.

Rabbit (sadly): Your Majesty, you can’t break the law of Nature.

It’s winter now….

Music (winter) (slide “Winter”)

Rabbit: Then comes spring with the first dripping of melted snow and snowdrops…

Music (spring) (slide “Spring”)

Rabbit: After spring comes bright summer….

Music (summer) (slide “Summer”)

Rabbit: And then comes golden autumn with a lot of fruit and vegetables, rains and winds.

Music (autumn) (slide “Autumn”)

King: I’ll make  a new law of Nature! Mr. Rabbit! Sit down and write! I’ll dictate to you. “The grass is green.

The sun is bright.

There are a lot of flowers in our forest. Bring a basket of snowdrops to our palace for the New Year’s party! “A full basket of gold is awaiting you!” Chancellor!

Chancellor comes.

Boy: Set my seal and proclaim my order!

Chancellor: But Your Majesty…

King: This is my order!

Lights go down.

Music.

Rabbit: Let’s go this way. Frosty the famous snowman lives here. I hope he can help us.

 boy: I am so tired. What’s the use of looking for snowdrops in winter. Where can I sit down?

 Boy  tries to sit down on a giant caterpillar but jumps up and cries.

boy: What is it? Dear me! It’s a snake!

Caterpillar: First of all can’t you be more polite and stop sitting on a delicate caterpillar?

 boy: Caterpillar in winter! It’s incredible!

Caterpillar: Stop talking nonsense. Can’t you see? It’s me. What are you doing here on Christmas Eve?

boy: We are looking for snowdrops.

Caterpillar: Isn’t it more incredible to look for snowdrops in winter?

boy: Certainly it is. Am I going mad?

Caterpillar: Why haven’t you said before you are going crazy? I am sure only Rudolf can help you – he is also an extraordinary creature. You have to go that way. (Show them the way).

 boy: Thank you. Bye.

Lights go down. Music.

In the forest.

 Rudolf appears.  boyl and Mr. Rabbit run to him.

Rabbit: Mr. Rudolf we are so glad to see you. Can you help us to find snowdrops.

Rudolf: Snowdrops? What a strange idea! I can manage to get moss and lichen for you.

 boy: But we need snowdrops very much.

Rudolf: You need a real magician, you need Santa.

boy: Where is he? Tell us, please, we are in a hurry.

Rudolf: I can’t tell you. He is very busy now, he is preparing Christmas gifts for children. That’s why nobody knows where he is. But you can ask Frosty.

Rabbit: Who is Frosty?

 Frosty (appears): Who called me?

 boy: Dear Frosty, can you show us the way to Santa’s house. We need his help. It’s Christmas Eve now and we’d like to get a basket of snowdrops on Christmas Day.

 Frosty: Let’s go that way. I’ll follow you, you can lose yourselves. (They are going away).
