No, in ancient Greece. There lived a powerful king. His name was Midas.

Who? Adidas?

No, he was King Midas, my dear.

Oh, I see. King Midas. Was he young? Rich? handsome?

He was OK. Neither young nor handsome. But he was very rich.

You've said "rich"? How rich? As Bill Gaits? Or perhaps as Abramovich?

I don't know exactly. He had a lot of money. But…

But what? Why do you say “but”?

But he was a little greedy.

Greedy? I don't like greedy men.

But he was.

King Midas was a rich man

But a little greedy too.

One day his wish came true.

came true? Really? Tell us what happened.

Well, are you sure you want to know?

Yes, we do!

Then let's go to his palace, to ancient Greece.

Scene I

King: Good afternoon, old man. Who are you?

Old man: I am a poor man. Can you give me something to eat?

King: Yes, of course. Sit next to me and be my guest. Bring us wine and fruit, cheese and olives to eat!

old man: Thank you! You are very kind, King Midas!

(thunder, flash of light, Dionysus appears)

King: Oh, who are you?

Dionysus: I am the god Dionysus. I want to thank you for being so kind to my friend and my teacher.

King: Is this old man your friend and your teacher?

Dion.: Yes, he is. You are a kind man, Midas. I can do whatever you like. Tell me your wish.

King: I want everything I touch to turn gold.

Dion. But you are very rich now, Midas. Are you sure that's what you want?

King: Oh, yes, I'm sure.

Dion.: Let it be so! The Gods of Olympus! I give this man power to turn everything he touches into gold. (Thunder, flashes)

King: Look, everything I touch turns to gold! The trees are gold, the flowers are gold and the stones are gold! Amazing!

A flower a cup of wine.

And all this gold is mine!

King: Let everyone eat and drink! Soon I will become the richest man in the world!

Oh no! My wine is gold and my sweets are also gold! I can't eat or drink! I will die!

“What shall I do?” he said.

I wish my bread was bread!”

King: Dionysus, kind god! Please help me. I am a greedy man. I made a bad wish. Come and save me!

Dion. : You are a good man. But greed is a terrible thing. Take this water and wash your face and hands with it.

King: Thank you Dionysus! I am all right now.

And King Midas was never greedy again.

You cannot buy gold!

Take a bow, sing King Midas, dance




King Midas was a rich man

But a little greedy too.

He wished he could have lots more gold,

One day his wish came true.

He touched a leaf, a loaf of bread

A flower a cup of wine.

King Midas laughed "They've turned to gold!"

And all this gold is mine!

King Midas could not eat or drink

“What shall I do?” he said.

“I wish my cup of wine was wine,

I wish my bread was bread!”

So live your life as it was done

Don't think that money is all.

There are some things beneath the sun

You cannot buy gold!

King Midas oh the secret of your touch
King Midas oh I like your smile so much
King Midas oh the way you spin me round
I'm going down down down to Vegas


Theater in English is an opportunity to effectively and quickly learn the language, the so-called "living word", in which plays and works of art are written, which are used as the basis for productions. Comparisons, hyperbolas, metaphors and numerous other literary and linguistic devices allow not just to learn, but to understand, mentally realize the depth, structure and nature of Shakespeare's language. The theater studio in English is one of the most effective, successful and productive methods of language schools. Particularly impressive results are shown by children's English theaters due to the special flexibility, susceptibility of children's memory, logic and ability to learn languages.


Theater in English in Moscow is an immersion in the environment of modern and traditional London theater, in the world of drama and vivid images. For children, the main thing in learning is the impression, and the world of theater gives the brightest emotions. In an English theater studio, a child does not just watch a performance. He is a member. Creator and doer. Understanding, feeling the meaning of the presentation, children learn to think in English, technically, intuitively correctly selecting, applying words and expressions, avoiding the mistakes inherent in “non-native speakers” of the language.

After a short time, those who visit the theater in English demonstrate:

  • A higher level of its development, which is manifested, among other things, in an increase in school performance in English;
  • The ability to independently build phrases, change, correctly apply words and expressions.

How are the classes

The theater studio in English enrolls students from the age of 10. Coordination is possible if the age has not reached 10 years. After passing the English proficiency test, the children, together with the teacher, put on a production in English, most of the time communicating in it.

School theater in English as a means of creating a foreign language game environment in elementary school.

In our school, learning English begins in the first grade. When my students were in the first grade, I put on small performances with them in English, used a lot of chants and songs.

In the fourth grade, we put on a play called The Snow Queen.

They are now in 5th grade. After reading the fairy tale “Snow White and the Seven Dwarfs’, the guys decided to put on a play based on it.

What competencies does theater form? First of all, this communicative competence which includes the knowledge and use of the English language, improving the knowledge of the children, enriching their vocabulary, developing their memory and fluency.

The program is designed taking into account the age characteristics of children, the desire to express themselves in creative activities, which increases the motivation for learning a foreign language, as well as our experience in that it allows the transfer of educational knowledge to practice, in situations in which verbal free communication is organized.

(She sits at the table, eats a bit of bread and some porridge out of each plate, and drinks some milk out of each cup.)

Oh, I'm so sleepy! (She tries to sleep in each of the beds. Finally she finds the most comfortable and falls asleep at once.)

Narrator:

Soon it became quite dark. The owners of the little house came back. They were seven little dwarfs. They worked hard every day in the mountains. They entered the room and understood that somebody had been in their house, for the things were in disorder.

I'm a princess. My name is Snow White. My mother died when I was a child. And my stepmother wanted to kill me. I can't go home. May I stay with you, dear friends?

The Second Dwarf:

Certainly, you may. And we'll take care of yours. You'll become our sister.

The Third Dwarf:

If you stay with us will you look after us? Will you cook, make the beds, wash and keep everything neat and clean while we are working?

With great pleasure!

Among the forest, dark green,

I can do a lot of things: run and jump, draw and write, sing songs and recite poems, play the piano and even fly by my umbrella.
Soon I must start working in the Grundys" family. It is a big family. They have got seven children, but they haven't got a teacher. Mrs. Grundy has a lot of work to do every day. Let's look into their house.

II. Scene 2. Mary Poppins parting one (right) half of the curtain. Behind it, viewers see the living room and kitchen. Mary Poppins goes to the kitchen, pointing to various items in the kitchen, she reads a poem.

Marry Poppins: Missis Grundy washes on Monday,
irons on tuesday,
Shops on Wednesday,
Bakes on Thursday,
Sews on Friday,
cleans on saturday,
Cooks on Sunday.
This is the tale of Missis Grundy.
You see how much Mrs. Grundy must do. But her children don't help her.

III. Scene 3 Mary Poppins leaves. Appears Mrs. grundy. On the other hand, Jack, Jill, Bell and Phill are running arguing. They are shouting, pushing, knocking chairs around the table.
Jack: I can fly, and you?

Bell: And I can swim. Can you, Phil?

Phill: No, I can "t. But I can read and you can" t.

Jill: I can swim.

Bell: No, you cannot. You don't like water. You aren't brave.

Jack: You are a little girl.

Phill: You are small and slim that's why you are cowardly.

Bill, Jack and Phill (together): We don't want to play with the girl.

Jill (crying, running to mom): Mother! Brothers don't want to play with me. They are bad.

Mrs. Grundy (to the audience): I am so sad. My children are not friendly. They don't love each other. They don't want to pay together. Where is our new teacher? When will she come?

Jack: Mother! Is our breakfast ready?

Mrs. Grundy: No, it isn't.

Bell: But I am hungry.

Phill: I am hungry, too.

Jack: I'm hungry! I am hungry! I am!
Four red tomatoes and ham.
Sweets, cakes, carrots and jam.
I am hungry! I am hungry! I am!

Mrs. Grundy: What a pity! You must wait; you may play in the garden.
Go to the garden
And play in the snow.
Make a white snowman
And help him grow.
What a nice snowman
The children will say.
What a fine game
For a cold winter day.

Jill: I don't want!

Phil: I don't want!

Jack: I don't want!

Together: We don't want!
