How Dwarfs Saved New Year’s Day children’s entertainment event

December 22, 2018

On December 22, 2018, the Meridian Arts and Cultural Center (Moscow) hosted the annual charity event held by Gazprom for socially vulnerable children from boarding schools, children's homes and other social institutions based in various cities across Russia.

Over 1,000 children visited the entertainment event. Life-size puppets from the Buff Theater welcomed them in the lobby. The little guests enjoyed taking pictures with the cheerful puppets and were given toy balloons as a gift.

All children were offered face painting so that they could have a funny New Year's Day-themed design applied on their faces and turn into their favorite fairy tale characters.

The Christmas Tree together with Sharik the Dog and Oink the Piglet held a musical lead-in activity involving a circle dance, various games and a fun quiz.

Father Frost asked everyone to make a dear wish, and the Three Little Pigs, the Dog and the Christmas Tree joyfully taught the children new merry songs, fun mimes and lively dances.

The entertainment activities culminated with a performance entitled “How Dwarfs Saved the New Year's Day.” The young spectators followed the characters of the performance to overcome numerous challenges, destroy evil sorcery and find the magic key from the New Year's clock. Father Frost used the key to turn the evil sorcerers into kind and cute animals, and they threw a real festive fancy ball together.

At the end of the event, every child was given a New Year's gift.
