In the coming season 2019 - 2020, during the New Year holidays, the State Pushkin Museum invites children and their parents on a bright theatrical journey through the fairy-tale space of medieval knights. Just like 200 years ago among the noble society, Greeks will again be in great fashion in the halls of the museum, and classical antiquity will become a role model.
Many centuries ago, tales of the exploits of the knight Beva from Anton or Bovo d'Anton traveled throughout Europe. In Russia, this knight was called Bova the Prince; the legend about him was read and retold for several centuries, starting from the 16th century. Popular folk tales about the “precious hero” were published in hundreds of editions until the beginning of the twentieth century. Alexander Sergeevich Pushkin also listened to the fairy tale about Bova the Prince as a child. Many years later, the poet, writing “The Tale of Tsar Saltan,” borrows a lot from the ancient legend and even makes sketches for the poem “Bova.” In the 2018-2019 season, we invite museum guests to become wandering storytellers - troubadours, trouvères, buffoons - to try to retell the legend of the knight Beauvais again. On children's interactive platforms, young museum guests will get acquainted with the legendary heroes from Russian epics, warrior-heroes from Russian stories and chronicles, learn about the heroes' magical assistants - the hero's horse, the enchanted sword and words of wisdom, explore the family tree of A.S. Pushkin, prepare a gift for Santa Claus and dance a heroic dance near a real live spruce tree at the New Year's ball. During the fabulous performance, young guests will not only learn the plot of the legend about Bova, but will also become his faithful assistants in his exploits.
We invite adult guests to walk through the halls of the museum exposition and exhibition halls, and also meet New Year with gypsies, take part in a comic “fist fight”, boast like a hero at a festive feast, and also learn a lot of interesting things about the culture and life of Russia in Pushkin’s time.
New program of New Year's balls 2019 - 2020 at the A.S. Pushkin Museum on Prechistenka.
All guests will be taken on a journey to the country that Alexander Sergeevich himself dreamed of as a child: “under the sky of Africa,” in the country of “poor Yorick” and “where it smells of laurel and lemon”; everyone who comes to the holiday will discover the philosophical secrets of the Celestial Empire and find the seven gems of Eastern poetry.
Children will enjoy a fabulous performance based on the myths and tales of Ancient China.
Will end the New Year holiday program a meeting with Father Frost and the Snow Maiden, cheerful dancing around a nine-meter living spruce tree and, of course, gifts for all guests prepared by the museum especially for this performance.
new ones first
Family New Year's ball in an old Russian estate in State Museum A.S. Pushkin - Kira and I have chosen this New Year’s event for the 3rd time. The New Year's ball includes a program for both children and adults. The last two times we were delighted with this Christmas tree.This year, to be honest, my impressions are mixed. I will say right away that this time I liked the children's part (at least the one that I saw) much less than the program for adults, which was at the time when the children watched the play.
So, the theme of the ball was China and Chinese culture.
First, all the ball participants gather near the fountain. Here children are divided into groups. It doesn’t matter what group the child is in; he will still go through all the stages, and then end up at the performance and in a round dance around the Christmas tree.
The ball begins with the children's part; At this time, parents keep their children company.
This time there were only three sites, 10 minutes each. At the first site we remembered the animals that Chinese culture symbolized something. One child’s task was to show this animal without words, and the rest of the participants had to guess it.
At the second site we talked about what people took with them on trips during the time of A.S. Pushkin. This platform is connected with China by the fact that the great poet dreamed of traveling around the world, but, as far as I remember, he never visited anywhere.
On the third playground, the children learned a dance to a song about a Chinese hard-working bird.
Actually, 30 minutes flew by too quickly and it seemed to me that the children did not have enough. The children were taken to the performance and the program began in person for adult visitors.
Some of the sites for adults are repeated from year to year, but this still does not make it any less interesting.
A short excursion into the history of the house, a story about the exhibition in several rooms of the museum.
Eeeeeee! Everybody dance! This time we learned the cotillion in the Chinese style. As always, fun and perky :).
Theater stages. This time, as always, it was a story about love that needs to overcome all obstacles; about the treachery and betrayal of royal persons. The parents happily plunged into the theatrical performance and, as always, it was very cool :).
Game of Stoss. On a real card table. The loser had the opportunity to win back if he answered the question correctly. The questions were not easy at all.
This is the end of the adult program. And at this time the guys were already dancing around the Christmas tree. Our group arrived last and it was impossible to see anything in the third row on the balcony :(.
Well now:
There are three playgrounds in total; last year there were four sites and they were much more interesting and varied. It is even possible that each site was longer than 10 minutes. The organizers explain the reduction in playgrounds by the fact that after four playgrounds, children get tired. In my opinion, this is doubtful, especially if the age limit is met.
In past times, some children's playgrounds were located in the halls of the museum, where museum exhibitions. This time only one of the three sites was like this. Perhaps this is reasonable; after all, children’s activity and museum exhibitions are not compatible.
I don’t know what the procedure should be when children outside the age limit are brought to an event. We had a child in our group, I don’t know, 2-3 years old; The child, it seemed to me, didn’t even speak properly yet. Mom kept trying to persuade her daughter to come forward so she could see everything.
As planned by the organizers, the New Year's ball ends with a round dance around the Christmas tree. Our group arrived last and it was impossible to try to see our child :(. This time, somehow, several parents broke through and they definitely weren’t the parents of very young children. When other parents wanted to go to the tree, naturally the security did not let them in.
I approached the administrator to find out why there were parents near the Christmas tree and the security did not ask them to vacate the premises, but the rest were not allowed in. Last time there were no parents at the tree. The administrator pretended to listen to me carefully, but did not do anything and, at the first opportunity, was distracted by her own affairs.
Everything is very well organized: there are no queues in the wardrobe; They give you a bag for shoes: extra chairs are provided. At the exit, it is strictly checked that each child leaves with an adult. Another important thing: juices and water are taken away at the entrance.
Gifts for children and adults. Children's gifts are mostly not sweet, but useful and educational.
I really like that there is a program for adults, because during the New Year’s children’s marathon of Christmas trees there is no time to think about your vacation. New Year's event within the walls of a museum is always atmospheric and unusual.
Reflecting on the impressions of last year and this year, I will think for a long time whether we will go to the New Year's ball next year or make a choice in favor of another New Year's event.
