DIARY:

  • MANY OF THESE CHILDREN ARE FOREVER ABANDONED BY THEIR PARENTS BECAUSE OF PHYSICAL PROBLEMS, WITH WHOM THEY WERE BORN. MOST ARE ROMA. EVERYONE IS FORGOTTEN BY SOCIETY.
  • ON THE ASPHALT IN THE YARD WE ARE RECOGNIZED BY AN INSCRIPTION WITH CABINET AGAIN: "THEATER FLOWERS - WELCOME FOREVER!“ THE RAIN THREE LARGE LETTERS, AND THE CHILDREN WRITE THEM AGAIN, AND AGAIN…
  • “WHO HAS A WHEELCHAIR, TO COME ON STAGE!” THE CHILDREN INVENTED THEIR ROLE! THEY TURNED THE TROLLEYS INTO SNOWWORKS AND "DEEP PEOPLE BREAK UP"
  • 6 IN THE MORNING. EVERYTHING FOR THE CARNIVAL IS FINALLY READY! LET YOUR FRIENDS BE ALIVE AND HEALTHY, WHO CAME TO HELP US! THE CHILDREN WILL BRING US COFFEE IN 7. WE HAVE MORE GOALS 60 MINUTES! WE WILL SLEEP FAST!

8.00. WE ARE ALREADY “DECORATED” IT'S TIME FOR THE CARNIVAL WORKSHOP TO OPEN. THE MOST IMPATIENT ARE ALREADY WAITING WITH A BUN IN HAND. WE ARE NEEDING TO NEGOTIATE THE THEATER PROGRAM AND PREPARE MORE THAN THE MARCH 100 MAN! WE BEGIN WITH THE TEACHERS, TO WIN THEM AS ASSISTANTS.

WE DRESS PRINCESSES, ROBBERS AND WITCHES. WE TIE TAPES, WE PUT CROWNS, WE BELT OURSELVES. WE ARE CLEANING, WE COMB, WE MAKE UP.

KATETE HAS ARRANGED WHEELCHAIRS WITH DUNAPREN AND TURNED THEM INTO A TRAIN.

ARRIVED AND THE DONKEY TROLLEY, WHICH WE LOAD WITH CHILDREN, FOR WHICH WALKING IS DIFFICULT..

APPROACHING 12.30. WITH A LITTLE DELAY AND A BIG SHUMOTEVITSA WE LEAVE FROM “PRINCE BORIS I. THE FIRST IS THE DRUMMER, THE DONKEY FOLLOWS HIM, THEN THE TRAIN AND THE OTHER TROLLEYS. AND AROUND THEM WALK PEDESTRIANS AND OUR 3-METER COCKILARI. OVERWHELMED POPLY OUR MINIBUS - IT TAKES THE BREATH OF THE TIRED..

WE GO CONSEQUENTLY THROUGH EACH OF THE THREE SCHOOLS. MANY COSTUME CHILDREN ARE WAITING FOR US EVERYWHERE. THEY FOLLOW US, AND AFTER THEM - FRIENDS AND RELATIVES. HUGE CARNIVAL PROCESSION!

THE MAYOR STOPPED THE MOVEMENT IN THE CITY CENTER. THEY ARE REMOVING US FROM THE YARDS, WHISTLE, THEY CALL… THE WHOLE CITY LAUGHED!

THE CHITALISHTE CANNOT CATCH THE MANY SPECTATORS. THE ACTORS HARDLY MAKE A WAY TO THE STAGE. WE PRESENT THE HOLIDAY PROGRAM ON THE EVENT OF THE NATIONAL AWAKENERS 'DAY, FOR WHICH WE HAVE BEEN REHEARING FOR A LONG TIME

"YOU ARE THE MODERN PEOPLE'S AWAKENERS!“ - THE DIRECTOR OF THE HOME TELL US ON THE STAGE MARIA TODOROVA

AFTER THAT IT HAPPENED, WHICH THE CHILDREN CONSIDERED IMPOSSIBLE . WITH DOLLS AND COSTUMES THEY PLAY ON THE HUGE SOFIA STAGE!
