Progress of the match: in the morning the announcement “Attention, attention! Tonight the performance “Zayushkina’s Hut” will take place. Director Tatyana Viktorovna is recruiting artists, costume designers, decorators, make-up artists, bartenders, and cashiers. I lead the discussion, observe the distribution of roles, if there are children who do not want to take part in the play, then I invite them to become spectators, but if everyone agrees to take part in the production, then we invite children from junior to middle age to become spectators. At the beginning of the conversation, I show and clarify the children’s knowledge about theater and theatrical professions. I would like to draw your attention to the fact that before the audience sees the performance, many people are involved in its pedagogical preparation: guys, do you know what theater is? And what is this for? Children: The theater is a place where different performances are shown for children and adults. Educator: do you know what theaters are? Children: Children's musical theater, Puppet theater, Shadow theater, Drama theater, Bolshoi theater, Animal theater Teacher: Guys, what do you think theaters are for? Children: give the elderly and adults the opportunity to spend free time and attend interesting performances; help people rejoice and receive a lot of positive emotions; see and learn something new and interesting; meet the actors and see their skills. Educator: how many of you know what is in the theater? Children: auditorium, buffet, wardrobe, stage, backstage. Educator: Now let's talk to you about each of the places you mentioned. Let's start with the wardrobe, what is a wardrobe and what is it for? (children's answers) That's right, guys, this is the place where the viewer first goes, there is also a saying: “The theater begins with crutches.” Educator: go to the buffet, what is it for? (Children's answers) Indeed, it is necessary that people can have a snack or eat something tasty, because sometimes it happens that some spectators come to the theater after the end of the working day. Educator: So you and I have arrived at the hall, what interesting things can we see there? (children's answers) Indeed, the auditorium is one of the most interesting places in the theater, because it is there that the artist goes on stage, as if communicating with the audience, conveying the character of the hero with his intonation, facial expressions, and gestures. Educator: This is one of the most mysterious places in the theater, what do you think? (children's answers) That's right, these are the wings, these are the rooms that help a person turn into the desired character. Educator: Do you know what professions people work in the theater? (children's answers) What do the actors do before the performance? (children's feedback) distribute the roles, try it. What do chests of drawers do, what is the name of the room in which they work? (children's answers) choose costumes, masks, wigs and all the necessary attributes that suit the roles, sew the costumes and iron them. What do makeup artists do? (children's answers) with the help of makeup and small additions help the artist become more like his character. What do charts do? (children's answers) we prepare a script, draw sketches of tickets. What do coffee pots do? (children's answers) build a showcase, buy goods - products. Do audiences need to prepare before visiting the theater? (children's answers) buy a ticket; prepare the dress; buy flowers as a gift for artists.
Then the children begin to act according to the chosen role, I move from one group to another.
1. Cafe - I will ask what products are sold in the cafe, where the goods will be placed, how buyers will find out the price, where the seller will put the money received for the purchase.
2 artists - I’ll ask how to arrange 2 screens - houses, so that you can see where whose house is (textiles), what decorations can be added to make it look more like a forest (trees), I’ll suggest creating a sketch of tickets (competition), if there are heroes, who need paraphernalia, I’ll ask the guys what they will make them from.
What else to read: Compiling a descriptive story based on a diagram on the topic “Dishes”
3 Chest of drawers and makeup artists: turn on if necessary.
4 proofs: what is the hare’s mood at the beginning of the fairy tale, how can it be conveyed in his voice? As the fox speaks, the intonation of the fox's voice changes at the beginning of the tale, and then. What words does everyone say when they meet a hare? Are the voices of a dog, a bear and a rooster different?
In the morning, the first part of the game takes place (fairy tale rehearsal, costume selection, selecting a ticket design (multiplying) - competition, house decoration, cafe decoration)
In the evening: while the performers are putting on their costumes, they are assisted by clients; artists decorate the stage; the collector sells tickets; spectators buy tickets and choose the attributes of a festive outfit, call a taxi and head to the theater; Ticket holders check their tickets, explain where to go and offer to buy a program (consisting of sketches that did not pass the competition), invite them to the bar, warning them that entry into the auditorium is prohibited after the third bell. In addition, spectators from other groups watch the performance, applaud and give flowers at the end. During the game, I pay attention to how the dialogues are structured (detailed, polite forms, the ability to listen to the partner’s speech to the end). If there are unused children, additional roles are selected: a taxi driver, a television cameraman or a correspondent interviewing artists.
At the end of the game, I summarize: did you like the role you chose? Do you think you managed to convey the character of your character? What role would you like to play next? I really liked the performance, all the characters were very bright and memorable. Each character knew his words and acted according to the text. The audience was very polite and well-mannered, they didn’t speak during the performance, they said magic words at the buffet table (hello, thank you, goodbye). All theater operators performed their duties with dignity. I want to come to your theater again. Thank you all!
