If you love me, love me true.

Send me a ribbon, and let it be blue.

If you hate me, let it be seen,

Send me a ribbon, a ribbon of green.

(He gives the “valentine” to the girl and she gives him the hand with a green ribbon. On her other hand there is a blue ribbon. In her turn the girl recites the poem devoted to the boy).

Good morrow to you, Valentine.

Curl your locks as I do mine.

Two before and three behind.

Good morrow, Valentine.

(The girl gives the “valentine” to the boy. The second boy recites the poem and dedicates it to the other girl and presents her a red and a blue flowers).

The rose is red,

The violets are blue,

The honey’s sweet

And so are you.

(The girl takes the greeting card and recites the poem too).

You have a dimple on your cheek

Many hearts you will seek.

A dimple on your chin,

Many hearts you will win.

The students of the 6^th form tell the information about roots of St. Valentine’s Day

The first student: Today is February the 14^th. We all have been awaiting this day eagerly, because it is the day when people tell each other nice things, give presents to their beloved ones, speak and sing about love.

The second student: Yes, today is St. Valentine’s Day. There are many different stories about the origin of St. Valentine’s Day. We know that Valentine was a priest in Rome a long time ago.

The third student: He was a very good priest and many people liked him. Roman emperor Claudius did not want young men to get married.

The fourth student: He wanted all men to go to war instead. He said no one could get married without his permission.But young men and women who were in love wanted to get married.

The fifth student: They went to Valentine and he married them in secret. When Claudius found out , he put Valentine into prison. Claudius killed Valentine on February, 14.

The sixth student: Two hundred years later, the church made February 14 a special day to remember Saint Valentine. Valentine became the patron saint of lovers. Another story is that February, 14 is the day when birds choose their mates and start building the nests, so people also choose the ones they love on that day.

The seventh student: Most European countries and the USA celebrate Saint Valentine’s Day. They have special custom to observe on that day. First of all, it is celebrated in families. This is the time to tell your beloved ones how you love them. Husbands and wives make little presents to each other, they go out for dinner or have a celebration at home.

Compere:

When people love each other the result of their feelings become marriage. The most romantic place for marriage is considered to be Gretna Green. Listen to the story about this famous place among sweethearts told by the students of the 8^th form.

(The students with cards appear. When each student finishes her story she turns over her card and audience sees a word. When all students finish they lift the cards overhead and spectators can read the sentence “Gretna Green means romantic marriage.”)

St. Valentine’s Day is celebrated on February, 14. Every St. Valentine’s Day thousands of people travel to a small village on Scotland’s border with England to get married. The village is called Gretna Green. Its romantic reputation began in 1754.

In that times in England marriage for the people under the age of 21 without parents’ permission was banned. However, in Scotland this permission was not required. Gretna Green was the first stop across the border. Many young couples came to Gretna Green to get married there.

Nowadays, in this place, at least one couple gets married every day of the year. Weddings for St. Valentine’s Day have to be booked 3 months in advance On this day boys and girls, sweethearts, husbands and wives, friends and neighbours exchange greetings of affection and love.

People send each other greeting cards, chocolates and flowers. Valentine’s cards are very colourful, with a couple of human hearts on them.

In the last century, sweethearts would spend hours fashioning a home-made card or a present.

There is a version of the first Valentine. It was a bishop a Christian martyrwho before he was put to death by the Romans sent a note of friendship to his jailer’s blind daughter.

Compere:

Love.. Marriage... Happy end. But Leo Tolstoy wrote: “ Why are so many novels finished with marriage? It’s like to leave a person in a thick forest with wild animals and to say: “And he lived long and happily.” In our opinion marriage means happiness. But in real life it’s not always true. We present to your attention the story of the one love and marriage.

Cast: He, She, singers, compere, other participants (“everybody”).

Scene 1

На сцену выходят Он и Она. Звучит музыка – песня “Love Story”

When do I begin to tell the story of how

great the love can be

The sweet love story that is older than the sea,

The simple truth about the love she brings to me

Where do I start.

With her first hallo

She gave a meaning to this empty world of mine

There’s never been another love, another time.

She came into my life and made the living fine.

She fills my heart.

Refrain: She fills my heart with very special things,

With angel songs, with wild imaginings.

She fills my soul with so much love.

That anywhere I go I’d never lonely

With her along who could belong me,

I reach for her land, it’s always there.

He: Excuse me, can you spare me a minute?

She: Certainly...

He: What are you doing tonight?

She: Pardon? What did you say?

He: I mean why don’t we go out together?

She: I’m sorry; I’m busy.

He: What about tomorrow?

She: I’m busy today, I was busy yeaterday. And I’ll be busy tomorrow. Besides, I don’t go out with strangers.

He: Everybody knows me here. Yet I must apologize. I meant well. Goodbye, I hope I’ll see you soon.

She: We shall see what we shall see.

Хор поёт “Strangers in the Night”.

Strangers in the night exchanging glances,

Wandering in the night, what were the chances?

Weeping, sharing live before the night was through.

Something in your eyes was so exciting,

Something in your heart was so inviting,

Something in my heart told me I must have you.

Strangers in the night, two lonely people we were,

Strangers in the night, up to the moment

When we said our first “hello”,

Little did we know

Life was just a glance away, a warm

embracing dance away...

Ever since that we’ve been together,

Lovers at first sight in love forever,

It turned out so right for strangers in the night.

Scene 2

Появляется Он, подходит к телефону, поёт “I Just Call to Say I Love You” (by Stevie Wonder).

No New Year’s Day to celebrate, no

chocolate cover’d candy hearts to give away,

No first of spring, no song to sing. In fact,

here’s just another ordinary day.

No April rain, no flowers’ bloom, no

wedding Saturday within the month od June.

But what it is is something true made up of

these three words that I must say to you.

I just call to say I love you, I just call to

say how much I care.

I just call to say I love you, and I mean it

from the bottom of my heart.

Она берёт трубку, слушает.

Scene 3

Все участники выходят на сцену и говорят по очереди:

Sally, Sally Waters, sprinkle in the pan,

Rise, Sally, rise, Sally, and choose your young man.

Bow to the East, bow to the West,

Choose for the worst, choose for the best,

And bow to the one you love best.

Она берёт его за руку.

Хор поёт “ Hands Up”, пара танцует.

Refrain:

Hands up, baby, hands up,

Give me your heart, give me , give me your heart, give me, give me.

Hands up, baby, hands up,

Give me your heart, give me , give me your heart, give me, give me.

All your love, all your love.

1 .In your face I love your smile,

Love your ways, I like your style.

What can I do to get closer to you?

Don’t think twice, I count to ten.

Don’t take it wise, do nothing then.

Just turn my way simply kiss me and say:

Refrain:

2. With your hat up in the sky

Every day you’re walking by.

Why do you have a sports looking at me?

Stop up game, don’t waste your time

Of all your dreams imagine mine.

No use to play hide-and-seek, follow me.

Refrain:

Затем Она даёт Ему сердце, Он надевает Ей фату, Она надевает Ему бабочку. Он снимает шляпу, Она прикрывается фатой и они целуются.)

Everybody:

Now you are married we wish you joy,

First a girl and then a boy,

Seven years after, son and daughter;

Pray, young couple, come kiss together.

Scene 4

Flash – Three years passed.

Выходят ведущий и Она в фартуке и косынке.

Compere:

Here stands a poor woman who is always tired,

She lives in a house where help isn’t hired.

Her last words on earth will be,

“Dear friends, I’m going

To where there’s no cooking, or washing, or sewing.

For everyone there is exact to my wishes:

For where they don’t eat there’s no washing of dishes...”

Входит Он, садится за стол, читает газету.

Она подходит к столу.

She: When we eat breakfast together you’re always reading newspapers and never talk to me. When we sit on the lounge you’re always watching TV and never look at me. When we go to parties you’re sitting with your friends and hardly ever dance with me. And you are ... lazy! You never help me with the housework. You never play with the kids. Sometimes I think you don’t love me!

He: Do you call that a happy family life? I work like a dog and in the evening I want some peace and quiet at home. But you never stop finding fault with me! I wish I had’t married you!

She: You are the limit, darling! I’m leaving.

He: OK. Why not start a new life?

Хор поёт песню “I will survive” (by Gloria Gaynor).

At first I was afraid I was petrified,

Kept thinking I could never live without

you by my side.

But when I spent so many nights thinking

how you did me wrong,

And I grew strong.

I know how to get along.

And so you’re back from outer space,

I’ve just walked in to find you here with

that sad look upon your face.

I should have changed that stupid lock,

I should have made you leave your key,

If I’d known for just one second you’d be

back to bother me.

Go on now, go walk out the door.

Just turn around now, ‘cause you’re not

welcome here any more.

Weren’t you the one who tried to hurt me

with good-bye?

Did I crumble? Did you think I’d just lie

down and die?

Oh no, not I. I will survive.

Oh, as long as I know how to love I know

I’ll stay alive.

I’ve got all me life to live,

I’ve got all my love to give,

And I’ll survive, I will survive.

Уходят.

Scene 5

Она сидит в кресле и грустит. Песня “Woman in Love” (by Barbara Streisand)

Life’s just a moment in space. When the

dreams are gone, it’s a lonelier place.

We kiss the morning goodbye but down

inside you know we never know why.

The road is narrow and long when eyes meet

eyes and the feeling is strong.

I turn away from the wall, I stumble and

fall, but I give you it all...

I am a woman in love and I’ll do anything

to get you into my world and to hold you

within.

It’s a right that I defend over and over again

...What do I do?

She: I’ve become a successful businesswoman. I’ve got a nice sum of money on my bank account. I work non-stop. But I feel so lonely in the evenings. I must confess I miss my husband and my home very much.

Уходит.

Входит Он в фартуке, галстук сбился на сторону, в руках сковородка.

He: I haven’t eaten a good meal for months. I haven’t put on a clean shirt for ages. Yes, I’m hungry and neglected.

I’m hungry, I’m hungry, I am

For hotdogs honey and ham,

Hamburgers, herrings and jam;

I’m hungry, I’m hungry, I am.

Nobody loves me, nobody cares for me! I miss my wife! I long for her!

Уходит.

Scene 6

Входит Она, садится в кресло. Стук в дверь.

She: Who is there, I wonder!

Входит Он с букетом цветов.

He: My life is ruined. I can’t live without you.

She: Mine is ruined too. I also feel lonely without you.

He, She (together): My darling! I’m so happy to be with you again!

Песня “Love Me Tender” (by Vera Matson and Elvis Presley)

Love me tender,

Love me sweet,

Never let me go.

You have made

My life complete

And I love you so.

Love me tender,

Love me true,

All my dreams fulfill,

For, my darling,

I love you

And I always will.

Love me tender,

Love me long,

Take me to your heart.

For it’s there that

I belong

And we’ll never part.

Love me tender,

Love me true,

All my dreams fulfill.

For, my darling,

I love you

And I always will.

Во время песни Он надевает на Неё фартук, вручает Ей сковородку и нежно Ей улыбается.

Everybody: And they lived happily ever after and died on the same day.
