Repertoire - Talisman

A show for children

If you enjoy fairy tales like some Russian and international favorites, such as Fox Alice and Cat Basil, Yemelia and Hunchback-Horse, Scarecrow and Hunter, Pinocchio and Imp, Baba-Yaga and Dragon, The Big Bad Wolf and the Little Red Riding-Hood, Carlson and Crow, The Three Little Pigs and Seven Goatees and many other characters loved by children of all ages... then you will love this wonderful story "Talisman" with two principal characters: a girl named Natasha and a boy named Sasha.

When the Moon appears in the sky and TV programmes are finished, when Dad falls asleep in his armchair with a newspaper in his hands, and Mum kisses you "Good night",

only then the fairy-tale begins.

Natasha: "My favorite books are dancing around me. What a festival! It's almost like Christmas, New Year's or Easter all together. Children have a lot of holidays.

Look, here are the brave Seven Goatees. They are not afraid of The Big Bad Wolf.

The Three Little Pigs are enjoying themselves so much that everyone wants to join in.

The Little Red Riding-Hood is so pretty that even The Dragon falls in love with her.

The Hunchback-Horse is galloping and The Scarecrow follows him. Baba-Yaga tries to catch the Imp. It is so easy in this carnival of masks.

My favorite toy is my Teddy Bear; it's a very unusual toy. It is my talisman, it will bring me happiness. My parents told me so when they gave it to me. I never leave it alone even when I go to school. But I am not greedy and am always ready to share it with my friends..."

But Baba-Yaga, Fox Alice and Cat Basil hate toys. The Imp would love to do something unpleasant, too. He and the Crow are on the team with The Big Bad Wolf. And poor Teddy-Bear is thrown onto the ice.

Sasha: "I feel that when everyone is asleep I can walk and play like my friends, I can even skate. It is so wonderful. But even in my dreams I cannot be like other children because of these awful crutches. They do not let me walk, I must sit in one place, and they make me unable to help Natasha, when the villains toss away her favorite toy. But I must find a way to help Natasha and save her Talisman. ...

Is it a dream? The toy is in my hands. Natasha is near me. This Teddy Bear became my Talisman as well. It will bring me health and cure me."

This festival can go on forever. We forgive our offenders. Let's love each other and give presents to all. And the best present today is the Teddy-Bear-Talisman, which brings happiness to every child.
