Сценарий праздника

На сцене появляются ведущие праздника – юноша и девушка. Юноша протягивает девушке красивую валентинку и говорит:

Here’s a special valentine

With lots of love for you.

And since you’re very special

Here are hugs and kisses, too!

Ведущие поворачиваются к публике и приветствуют ее.

Девушка: Hello, friends! We’re happy to welcome you at our party today. We’ve been eagerly waiting for it! Добрый день, любящие и любимые, влюбленные и возлюбленные! Добрый день всем, чьи сердца открыты для любви и светлых чувств!

Юноша: Today we celebrate St. Valentine’s Day! It’s a special day. It’s the day when people tell each other nice things, they give small presents to their beloved ones, and they speak and sing about love. Мы приветствуем всех вас в этот замечательный день — День Святого Валентина — удивительный день открытых сердец

Юноша: Do you know why this day is called St. Valentine’s Day? Who was this Valentine?

Девушка: There are several stories about the origin of the day. Do you want to learn more about it? Here you are. According to one legend Valentine was a Christian priest in the Roman Empire 300 after the death of Jesus Christ.

Дорогие друзья, наверное, не все из вас знают о происхождении этого праздника, а история его уходит корнями в давние времена. Давайте послушаем древнюю легенду. Римский император Клавдий II запретил воинам и просто одиноким мужчинам жениться, дабы они не отвлекались от службы. Валентин тайно венчал желающих и за это был приговорён к смерти. В различных легендах приводятся подробности о прощальном письме, которое Валентин написал перед казнью слепой девушке, дочери тюремщика, и которое исцелило её. 

Сценки из истории 

Голос из-за занавеса:

When the Roman Emperor Claudius II needed soldiers for his army, he made a special law against marrying because he was sure that getting married made men want to stay at home instead of fighting wars. But at that time there lived a priest called Valentine. He couldn’t agree with the emperor’s decision. When he saw that young couples were truly in love, he married them secretly.

Scene 1

На сцене появляются юноша и девушка, одетые в одежды времен Римской империи.

Он: Oh, please! Marry us! We love each other truly! We can’t live without each other.

Она: I’ll die, if you don’t marry us. Please, please. Help us!

(они оба падают на колени)

Священник: I see how much you love each other. I will help you. My daughter! My son! I declare you husband and wife! Live long and be happy!

(врывается стража, они хватают священника)

Стражник 1: Priest, you have been discovered and condemned to death!

Стражник 2: How dare you break the law? To prison! To prison!

Он и она: Farewell, Father!

Scene 2

Священник в тюрьме. Звучит грустная мелодия. Входит тюремщик с дочерью.

Священник: What a beautiful girl!

Тюремщик: This is my daughter. She is so unhappy. She is blind. She will never enjoy the light of the sun! She will never see the blue sky! She will never see the trees! (рыдает)

Священник: I will help you. Come up to me, poor child! Don’t be afraid!

(через некоторое время дочь тюремщика показывает, что к ней вернулось зрение, она счастлива)

Девушка: You’ve worked a miracle! Thank you! You are so kind. Even here, in prison, you show your love for everyone. I’m so grateful to you! May I come to visit you every day?

Священник: Unfortunately, tomorrow, on February 14, I am to die. But I’m not scared and I want to tell everybody on earth, “I love you. I’m your Valentine”.

Голос из-за кулис: Just before his death, on February 14, Valentine sent the girl a farewell message which he signed ”From your Valentine”.

На сцену вновь выходят ведущие

Юноша: Now I think everybody understands why this day is observed in many countries of the world. It’s a good time to show your love.

Девушка: Love to your mother, granny, to your sister or brother, to your relatives and friends.
