@11.00 am
McGlohon Theater
at Spirit Square
The event is mostly performed in Russian language with the English play scripts available for all of our guests, who do not, (yet!), speak Russian. The event includes a pre-show where every child (or a group of kids) would have an opportunity to meet the Grandfather Frost (Ded Moroz, Santa’s distant cousin) and his granddaughter (Snegurochka the Snowmaiden), and make a performance of his/her choosing, in English, Russian, or any other language – Ded Moroz and Snegurochka are true multi-lingual! Typical examples include a small song, a poem, or a dance. The doors open at 10AM and the pre-show starts shortly after and lasts for approximately 40 minutes. The main performance starts at 11 AM and consists of a 40-50 minutes play followed by a children’s concert done by the greater Charlotte’s schools of art, language, and music.

Community Education Project is a not-for-profit 501(c)(3) organization created to promote and increase community awareness and knowledge about well known and proven effective educational and child rearing theories and practices. NY Utrennik is brought to you by Community Education Project and a great number of volunteers who devoted their time and efforts in an attempt to share their childhood NY experiences with the younger generation.
This project was made possible, in part, with funding from ASC, and the N.C. Arts Council, a division of the Department of Natural & Cultural Resources.
Russian-speaking community of the Carolinas is growing! So is our event. If you can, consider donating – every dollar counts.
