Corporate in oriental style. Eastern New Year - script

Characters: presenter, astrologer, performer of oriental dances.

(The hall is decorated in oriental style (fruits, organza, oriental lanterns, pillows).

On the wall- a comic collage from a photograph of the wife of the hero of the day in different years and in different images.
The collage is called "My Favorite Harem". To the sounds of A. Ukupnik's song "Petrukha" the presenter comes out.)

Leading: Good evening friends! I welcome you to today's celebration, which I am pleased to begin with poetic lines:

Abode of wisdom and the sun,
A sprout of great antiquity!
His mysteries are endless -
I invite everyone to the east!

Dear guests! Today we have a chance to feel the whole flavor of the East, namely: make a trip to the famous oriental bazaar, smell the aromas of various spices, taste outlandish fruits, see the original dance of an oriental beauty, get acquainted with the famous Baghdad astrologer and much more! This wonderful gift of fate - to visit a real holiday of eastern life - became possible thanks to the hero of the day, respected ... (name patronymic of the hero of the day).

And it is to him that I dedicate the first ancient oriental toast: One day a magician came to the padishah, who became famous for his good deeds, and brought him three priceless gifts. He told him: “My first gift is health! May you be strong and not subject to illness. My second gift is the oblivion of fears, sorrows and troubles. Cleanse your soul from these hardships! And the third gift is the gift of intuition, which will tell you in life the right move." Let's wish our hero of the day these three gifts: health, oblivion of sorrows and intuition, which would lead a happy life through life! (Short pause.) Host: Friends! In the previous wise oriental toast, we wished the birthday man to have three priceless gifts in life: health, forgetfulness of sorrows and intuition. And now let's ask him to accept three no less valuable gifts purchased at a real oriental bazaar. All three items symbolize wealth, which is also very necessary in our lives!
(Three assistants in oriental costumes carry out souvenirs on beautiful trays, which are presented to the hero of the day with brief explanations for them.)

1. A three-legged toad with a coin in its mouth is a very popular oriental symbol of great luck. The coin in the mouth represents gold. The easiest way to activate money energy is to place one toad in each room of the house or place it on the office table. The main thing is to make sure that the toad sits with its back to the door, as if it had just jumped into your house.
2. The money tree is the most common symbol of wealth. An old oriental legend tells about it: when a tree is shaken, golden coins fall to the ground like raindrops. We hope that the rain of these coins will literally flood your home. But be careful - don't drown!
3. Oranges and tangerines in a beautiful vase - in the east they symbolize gold and successful business. Let a vase with these fruits decorate your home at any time of the year!

Leading: Once, in an eastern caravanserai, I overheard beautiful words of wisdom that I want to say today in this hall: lush foliage of those trees that have deep roots. Of course, you guessed that we are talking about the inseparable connection of children with their parents. We bow low to the respected ... (first name and patronymic of the parents of the hero of the day) for their love and patience! After all, they gave the world such a beautiful son! (Congratulations to the parents of the hero of the day.) (Short musical pause.)

The chorus of the song "Oriental Tales" performed by the group "Brilliant" sounds.

Leading: It is known that the East is full of secrets and mysteries. Perhaps the most mysterious and charismatic oriental personalities are magicians and soothsayers. Meet one of them - the keeper of great secrets, a connoisseur of human destinies, a sage and astrologer from Baghdad, Huseyn Huslia!

An astrologer comes out, he has a turban on his head, in his hands is a small book in a velvet cover, on his wrist is a bag of coffee beans.

Astrologer: Oh dear ones! Greetings to all of you and especially to the noblest husband who has gathered such a large number of friends! I believe that prosperity and happy summers await all those present! Let me arrange a small exam on the knowledge of the most ancient oriental science - astrology. So, my friends, pay attention! The zodiac horoscope divides the year into twelve signs, to which my questions are devoted:

1. What is the zodiac sign of the royal title? (A lion)
2. What sign can whistle on the mountain? (Crayfish)
3. What sign is similar to itself like two drops of water? (Twins)
4. Which sign can lead to flooding? (Aquarius)
5. What sign has sharp horns? (Capricorn)
6. Which sign can accurately hit the target? (Sagittarius)
7. What sign is the husband of a meek sheep? (Aries)
8. Which sign is the most feminine? (Virgo)
9. And what sign is considered the most stubborn? (Taurus)
10. What sign will a woman never agree to stand in the presence of a man? (Scales)
11. What is the sign of a poisonous sting? (Scorpion)
12. What sign does every angler dream of? (Fish)

Astrologer: I made sure that you are well versed in the teachings about the stars, planets and their combination, but the exam is not over yet! A real magical oriental talisman will be received by the one who calls:
- the sign of the zodiac under which the hero of the day was born;
- a symbol of the year when the birthday boy was born.

The guests who answered these questions correctly are given bean and bean beads by the stargazer. Beans are considered in the east as a love talisman, as well as a strong amulet. To make beads, you need to soak the beans in water, string them on a thin fishing line and let dry. In parting, the astrologer offers to tell fortunes to the hero of the day in the old oriental way - on coffee beans.

FORTUNE ON COFFEE BEANS

The stargazer takes out 6 coffee beans from his bag and passes them to the hero of the day.

The birthday boy, under a calm oriental melody, pouring grains from hand to hand, must imagine how coffee seeds are saturated with his energy. Then he needs to bring his palms to his forehead, close his eyes and focus on the exciting problem. After that, the fortuneteller throws the grains on the table, and the astrologer counts how many of them fell upside down, and reads out a prediction: when solving a problem that concerns you, you will discover a lot of new and useful things for yourself. In the meantime, open a bottle of wine and don't think about anything!

The stargazer says goodbye and leaves. The 1st verse and chorus of the song "Harem" performed by Irina Allegrova sounds.

Leading: Is it possible to imagine the East without beautiful brown-eyed beauties;
without the magical ringing of monist, sparkling beads, flowing chiffon and silk, delicate velvet;
without the brilliance of jewelry and the charm of music that turns every woman into a fabulous goddess.
Our holiday will not do without incendiary oriental dance. Meet Jamila - a wonderful representative of the East!

Music sounds, the dancer performs a dance. At the end of his speech, Jamila silently leaves a mysterious bundle on the table and disappears.

Leading: Such beautiful women live in the East! Let's see what's inside the package.

The presenter takes out a hookah and an old parchment with an inscription from the package.

Leading(unfolding parchment): This is an appeal from all Eastern women to our hero of the day!

Is reading:
Padishah of the Persian fairy tale!
We ask for indulgence.
And from all Eastern women,
We present you a hookah as a gift!
Let in dreams immediately arise
Sensual concubines groans.
And hookah smoke will give
Sleep and sweet languor.
All of us, women of the East,
We would be glad to get into your harem
Night, moon, hookah and you -
There is no better reward in life!

Signatures: Gulchatay, Zuhra, Zarina, Guzel, Saida, Hafiza, Leyla, Zulfiya and further 18 more female names.

Leading(passing the hookah to the hero of the day): Unfortunately, we have to disappoint these 26 lovely women - they have no chance of getting into the harem of the hero of the day! All harem places are occupied by the only and beloved wife ... (wife's patronymic name). Sometimes difficult, but happy years have been lived with her, and the spouse has always in one person perfectly coped with the duties of a wife, mistress, mother, and keeper of the hearth.

(The host draws the attention of the guests to a comic collage of photographs of his wife).

It is no coincidence that the hero of the day, calling this collage "My favorite harem", awarded his wife the highest title - his beloved and only wife!

(Congratulations to the wife of the hero of the day.)

Leading: I'll tell you a secret: maintaining a harem is not an easy task! In the East they tell the following story: the Sultan's harem was five kilometers from the palace. Every day the Sultan sent his servant for the girl. The Sultan lived to be a hundred years old, and the servant died at thirty. Moral: it's not women who kill men, but running after them! To be ready to conquer many women, you need to have excellent health, as well as a trained body. I invite men to be the owners of the harem and try to win the hearts of the ladies present here! The presenter chooses two men from among the guests to participate in the competition, and the hero of the day becomes the third participant.

HOULAHOOPS IN ORIENTAL STYLE

(Competition for men)

Three participants - candidates for sultans - are given hula-hoops and fans.
The one who can spin the hoop around the waist the longest while fanning himself wins the competition and gets the right to be photographed among the beautiful inhabitants of the “harem”, that is, simultaneously with all the women present at the celebration.

During the competition, ladies are advised to cheer loudly for potential sultans. The host sums up the results so that the hero of the day becomes the winner. Even if the birthday boy did not cope with the task, it can be announced that the support of his fans was the most active. The birthday boy and the ladies present at the celebration pose for the photographer.

Leading: Eastern wisdom says: “The tongue is one, the ear is two; Say it once, listen twice! Especially for the winner of the competition, our dear hero of the day ... (name patronymic)

everyone's favorite song from the film "Prisoner of the Caucasus" is performed. The song “If I were a Sultan” sounds, then a dance break.

Leading: You can not ignore the famous oriental cuisine, which has recipes for thousands of delicious dishes that can surprise even the most sophisticated gourmet. It is known that many spices are used in the preparation of dishes in the East. The prize will be given to the one who names the most expensive spice in the world. (Answer: Saffron is the most expensive spice and is valued more than gold, because the process of its production is very laborious.)

The prize for the correct answer is a set of spices.

Leading: I announce a women's competition for the best connoisseur of oriental sweets! Why female? Because they are the biggest sweet tooth.

ORIENTAL SWEETS

(Competition)

Three women take part in the competition, who take turns pronouncing the names of oriental sweets. If the word is not named, the participant is eliminated. Possible answers: baklava, shaker, kurabye, churchkhela, candied fruit, Turkish delight, gozinaki, badam, nougat, halva, sherbet, roasted meat, marshmallow, marshmallow, marmalade. The winner receives a set of oriental delicacies.

Leading: In the East they say this: you can lead a camel to water, but you cannot make him drink. Men, it's time to check the correctness of these words!

ORIENTAL TALE

Three participants (men) distribute roles among themselves: the first neighbor, the second neighbor and a penny. The facilitator reads the text, the players drink a glass of vodka at the mention of their role.

Story: Once two neighbors went to the market to sell wine. Along the way, the neighbors sat down to rest and eat.
“It would be nice to drink a glass of wine now,” the first neighbor sighed.
- I agree, but we are bringing wine to sell, and you can’t waste a single drop! - reasoned the second neighbor.
Then the first neighbor searched his pockets, found a copper nickel and said to the second neighbor:
- Pour me some wine for a nickel.
The second neighbor poured one glass for him, then returned the same nickel and asked the first neighbor: - And now you pour me one.
So this penny went from hand to hand until the wineskins were empty, and both neighbors snored drunk and satisfied with the trade.

So let's drink to a good deal!

Participants of the game and spectators drink.

Leading: This is such an instructive story! Our "camels" did not want to drink, but I had to! Now let's do a sobriety test for them. To identify the most sober, I ask the participants in the game to say loudly and clearly the following simple phrase in turn: the concept of social stratification. The men are trying to complete the task, the host announces the name of the "Most sober" and invites him to go to the opposite category, that is, drink a large glass of vodka.

If the player agrees (it is not necessary to drink), then he is awarded the second honorary title "The Most Courageous".

Leading: Friends! And now I propose a test of collective intelligence! You have to correctly solve a riddle with an oriental twist. I will read the text and ask a question, and at the right time you will give me the right answer together, in unison.

EASTERN MYSTERY - JOKE

Behind the carved trellis of the garden,
Among the greenery of the east,
Three tired travelers
We walked peacefully on a moonless night.
The first said: “Where is she?
The light of my eyes is the moon!
The second answered in the dark:
“May Allah help us!”
Well, the third did this: Eeyore! Eeyore! Eeyore!
It was an old donkey!
Suddenly broke through the clouds
Bright, full, lunar circle.
The first one screamed:
"There she is! The light of my eyes is the moon!
With gratitude in the eyes
The second said: “Oh, Allah!” (Viewers)

Attention! Chorus of the third man tell me the words!
Guest response: Eeyore! Eeyore! Eeyore!
Leading: And now everyone quickly grab your ears. (Pause) Are you all right? Has anyone's ears grown? And then you screamed so naturally ... It was, of course, a joke. And now I will make a serious oriental toast and ask all those present to support me! In the East, they think so: if you want to be happy for one day - get drunk, if you want to be happy for one week - get sick, if you want to be happy for one month - get married, and if you want to be happy all your life - be healthy! Let's raise a glass to the health of the hero of the day!

TOAST

Congratulations to the guests, musical pause. During the musical break, the host stops the music and offers to listen to an instructive oriental story.

Leading: The fool saw a watermelon in the market and asked:
- What it is?
- Donkey egg, - they answered him.

He chose the largest watermelon, put it under his arm and went home. On the way, he dropped a watermelon, and it rolled downhill, hit a stone and cracked. And then a hare jumped out of the bushes and ran away.
- Oh, what a quick donkey hatched, and I missed it! - regretted the fool.

At this point, I had to say: let's drink to fools, without whom it would be boring to live in the world! However, I prepared a surprise and changed the ending of this story: so let's taste this ripe, fragrant watermelon, and I hope no one in this room expects a donkey to hatch from it.

Assistants take out a watermelon, treat guests. The musical pause continues. Host: The East has given humanity many very useful inventions. I ask you to raise your hands of those who have an “A” or “B” in history in their matriculation certificate. Guests raise their hands. The host invites them to go on stage and holds a competition "Great Inventions of the East".

GREAT INVENTIONS OF THE ORIENTAL

(Team competition)

Three teams of 2-3 people participate.
Each team is given three items:
- Calendar, sheet of paper, pack of tea;
- A chess piece, a silk scarf, a bag of rice;
- Compass, chopsticks, paper figurine (origami).

The task of the teams is to conduct a historical study in 1 minute and determine in which country each of the items was invented.
(Correct answers: calendar - Egypt; chess - India; origami art - Japan; paper, tea, compass, silk, rice, daddies - China.)

The team with the most accurate answers wins the right to keep the items as prizes.

Leading: Friends! I propose to look into the eastern Antiquities Shop, where among the coins, weapons, utensils, clothes, household items and other antiques you can find really old and mysterious objects. An example of such an unusual acquisition can be this vessel.

The host demonstrates a bottle of five-star Armenian cognac, made in the form of an amphora.

Leading: Giving this mysterious vessel as a gift for our birthday man, the seller of the Antiquities Shop told me the following story:
The ancient vessel was raised
From the waves of the mysterious sea.
And in it - a gray-haired magic genie
Languishing in captivity for centuries!
P.S. At the bottom, the vessel was covered with mud,
Jin was pretty bored.
He was waiting for the cork to be opened,
And even a little wild...
Break the seal of times,
Five stars - like five centuries.
And release the genie in an instant
You are from binding shackles!
Just make a wish -
And he will perform at the same moment!
After all, the famous school of magicians
He was a capable student.
So that the genie of mothballs spirit
Didn't it seem too gloomy to you,
I just flattered him a little -
After pouring the spirit into the bottle ... cognac.

Leading(passing the bottle to the hero of the day): Handing over this magical vessel, I want to recall the well-known oriental wisdom: make your wishes with caution, because they can come true.

If the hero of the day offers to immediately open the bottle, its contents are poured to those who wish, and the one whose glass is filled last is considered gin. He is obliged to fulfill any wish of the birthday man.

Leading: Friends! Of course, you know from the school curriculum that such a term as the Great Silk Road is closely connected with the word East. This caravan trade route was the longest and played the role of a link between the countries of different civilizations. I propose to repeat this difficult route right in our hall and deliver some goods to their destination. I need the help of two men who will play the role of caravaners.

The host chooses assistants and forms their "caravans" - two teams of 4-5 people.

THE GREAT SILK ROAD

(team game)

Team members line up one after another, the caravaneer is ahead of everyone. Then they connect all the right legs to each other, and in the same way all the left legs to each other. On the start line there are various items (there should not be many of them, otherwise the game will be delayed), which the “caravan” needs to deliver to their destination - to the finish line.

To prevent the “caravan” from moving back empty, objects are also placed on the finish line. To the sound of the song "Uchkuduk" performed by the group "Yalla", the teams begin to move, led by caravaners.

The first team to move all the items wins.

The game can be complicated by laying a strip of wallpaper from start to finish, then the participants will need to move strictly along this “caravan route”, without going beyond it. Players of the winning team receive toy compasses as prizes.

Leading: In the East there is a wonderful way to keep the age. Those days that are spent with guests are not taken into account. I propose a toast to you, dear guests, because today, without knowing it, you extended the life of our hero of the day! (Dance program.)

CHARACTERS

adults:

Vizier Shamsudin

Haja Nasreddin

Two guards

The hall is an Arab palace, with strange birds on the walls….

The Great Emir enters the hall, holding a bowl of halva in his hands, wailing and groaning…

Sultan:

Oh, woe to me, woe to me ....

I have loved halva since childhood

With nuts and poppy seeds.

And, giving her praise,

I ate it with gusto.

But for many years now

All life has lost its meaning.

And even though I'm fabulously rich,

Not sweet to me, but sour ...

(sings)

Oh, alas, alas, alas

I lost the taste of halva

I lost the taste of halva

Sultan: Where is my vizier Shamsudin? I order him to come!

(the guards part, the vizier enters the hall)

Vizier: I hear you, O Great Sultan

Sultan: Shamsudin, tell me to send the best doctor, let him heal my illness! I can neither eat, nor sleep, nor rejoice, I dream of feeling the taste of halva again!

Vizier: Oh, lord, but all the best healers, great magicians from overseas countries have already visited you, and they are all powerless ...

Sultan: Oh, woe to me, woe .... I'll go lie down, maybe sleep will bring relief. And you, my faithful servant and good friend, Shamsudin, do not close your eyes, but think of a way to heal me.

(The Sultan goes into the background, lies down on the pillows. The Vizier takes out a large book of laws)

Vizier: Well, I have nothing more to do - to think about your healing!

(in a conspiratorial tone) As long as the Sultan is in this state, I will rule the country, and no one can interfere with me. (laughs, takes out a pen and starts writing) I, the Great Sultan, the lord East, I command: to introduce quitrent, in the amount of 100 lire for the creaking of the gate, 300 lire for the barking of a dog in the courtyard of the house, if someone sees a chicken in a dream, he will pay 500 lira, and whoever sees the Great Sultan in a dream will give 1000 lira of quitrent ...

Sultan: What are you saying to your tray, Shamsudin? I can't sleep! I want songs, dances!

Vizier: As you command, O Most Serene!

(The vizier leaves, the girls enter the hall)

The girls perform the SHAWL DANCE

(Noise, screams are heard ... The guards bring the young man)

Haja Nasreddin: (screams indignantly) Oh Great Sultan east. This can't go on like this! The people are outraged by the dues that you charge them! People already have nothing to feed their children, and you keep getting richer and richer!

Sultan: Whatoo! How dare you, impudent boy, blame the Sultan himself! Guards, execute him!

(the guards clumsily try to catch the boy, Haja Nasreddin deftly dodges)

Haja Nasreddin: Stop! Have mercy on me, Great Sovereign, I can do you a good service.

Sultan: (indignantly) What can you do, boy!

Haja Nasreddin: Everyone knows what trouble happened to you. That you have lost the taste of halva. I know how to help this trouble!

(The Sultan calls the guards back with a gesture)

Sultan: (impatiently) Speak, don't hesitate! What do we have to do?

Haja Nasreddin: Here look: everything that happens to us has its cause and effect. Do you think that you lost the taste of halva and that made you sad?

Sultan: (thoughtfully) Yes…

Haja Nasreddin: But in fact, everything is just vice versa: you lost the opportunity to laugh even earlier and because of this you no longer feel the taste of halva.

Sultan: And what follows from this?

Haja Nasreddin: but the fact that the medicine that will cure the Great Sultan is LAUGHTER! And the children will help you with this. Only they know a lot of fun, kind and funny games. Guys, can we help the Sultan return the taste of halva?

Children: Yes!

Haja Nasreddin chooses three couples "mother Daughter" and running a competition « ORIENTAL BEAUTY» . Girls, for a while, should dress up each of their mothers in an Arabic costume. (jewellery, coin belt, head scarf). The game is played several times.

Sultan: Well done! Well done! I want more fun games.

Haja Nasreddin: Everyone knows that Eastern girls are the most graceful, they can carry jugs of water on their heads and not spill a drop. And our beauties will have to carry a tray of fruit on their heads without the help of hands.

A RELAY GAME IS HELD: the girls are divided into two teams, in turn, each member of the team must carry a plastic plate with fake (light) fruit and pass it on to the next team member. Whose team will complete the task faster. (Multiple moms can be entered)

(The Sultan is a little more cheerful, actively "sick" for the participants of the relay, clapping)

At the end of the game, Haja Nasreddin invites the Sultan to compete with each other. The Sultan runs clumsily, drops his plate, causing the laughter of all those present.

Sultan: (holding the waist) Oh, and you tired me, I'll go lie down and rest. And you (referring to the girls) dance!

SOLO (dance to drums)

Sultan: (referring to the girl dancer) Eco, you are doing everything right. Will you teach me, old man?

The Sultan clumsily repeats the movements of the girl, turning into an unrestrained dance. The Sultan dances, laughs, has fun from the heart.

Sultan: Thank you guys, you had fun, you had so much fun! Finally, the taste of my favorite halva will return to me! (runs to a bowl of halva, tries it and sighs in disappointment) I don't feel anything... (screams angrily) How dare you, impudent boy, lead the Sultan himself by the nose! Guard! Execute!

Haja Nasreddin: Wait! I think I know why the taste of halva did not return to you: One more thing needs to be done. Cancel all unfair taxes and taxes imposed by you.

Sultan: What kind of tribute? Guard! Bring me the book of laws!

(The Sultan leafs through the book of laws and is perplexed)

Sultan: tax for creaking gates?. for a barking dog? Guard! Vizier Shamsudin to me! Immediately!

(Guard turns on the vizier)

Sultan: How could you, Shamsudin, take advantage of the misfortune that happened to me and issue the most ridiculous laws on behalf of the Great Sultan for many years? Guard! Execute!

Vizier: Oh Lord! Oh, the light of my eyes! Oh Sun of Suns! I'm sorry! Do not order to execute! I realized everything...

Haja Nasreddin: Lord, let's forgive? Friends, what do you think? (children and parents are in favor of forgiving the vizier)

Sultan: Well, then listen to all my decree! All taxes and taxes imposed by vizier Shamsudin, without my knowledge, cancel! And forgive the vizier himself, but demote him to the gardeners! And let him grow in my garden as many roses as he collected taxes from the unfortunate inhabitants!

(Khadja Nasreddin brings a bowl of halvah to the Sultan. The Sultan, sighing doomedly, tries, and ... Oh, a miracle! The taste has returned)

The Sultan calls everyone to dance. A DANCE FLASHMOB is held for all those present at the party.

Sultan: Thank you, my family! You, with your kindness and pure hearts, returned the joy of life to me!

Haja Nasreddin: Be happy and smile more often!

Vizier: Be kind and honest!

(heroes say goodbye, leave to the music)

BUT a party continues and a tea party is announced for all those present.

During the tea party, you can show several solo and group dance numbers and a number performed by an orchestra of Arabic folk musical instruments (sagats, darbuka, mazhar).

Just before the arrival of guests, it is worth turning on light, instrumental music. You can also look for traditional Chinese motifs, but not all of them are able to create a philosophical atmosphere. And to understand music and its purpose without knowing the Chinese language is a very troublesome business, which is not worth wasting time for the sake of one party.

When all the guests are assembled, invite them to the tea ceremony.

Games and entertainment for an oriental style party

Chinese game "Fortune Prophecy"	Let all the guests put any object in a bag (or box) - a pebble, a key, beads, a ring, a feather, a postcard, etc. Then - offer the birthday man to touch, without looking, pull out any thing from the bag. And then - turn on the fantasy. Each guest must say what this thing will mean (symbolize) in his later life. For example, a key is a symbol of good luck, prosperity, material wealth, and beads are a symbol of a cheerful life and increased attention from the opposite sex, etc. But even without knowing the true meaning of the subject, one can philosophize, or come up with a cheerful interpretation of one or another subject. The game can be continued indefinitely, inviting all guests to make a fortune prophecy for each other.
chopstick games	Exercise 1. Team game. Guests are divided into two teams. In front of each team is a plate of pasta, rice, or chopped vegetables. The meaning of the game is to transfer the product with chopsticks from one plate (which is located at one end of the room) to another (at the opposite end). Task 2. Come up with a different purpose for Chinese chopsticks. For example, use them as hairpins, or swords for fencing, or drumsticks. Who has enough imagination and for how long, and whose idea will be the most original - is determined by the judge - the birthday man.
Cooking book game	Give your guests some cookbooks with colorful pictures of Chinese national dishes. Let them try for 15 minutes (for example) to create something similar from the products you proposed. Ingredients for dishes should be prepared in advance so that at the holiday everything needs only to be mixed and decorated. The judge, of course, will be the birthday boy!
Chinese calligraphy game	Creative event for your holiday. For him, it is worth preparing in advance paints, brushes, drawing paper and samples of wishes written in Chinese for good, good luck, prosperity.

And so that dear guests who brought light to our house do not get bored, our famous dancers want to demonstrate their skills to us. (Exit of the dancers or participants who prepared the number in advance.)

Wisdom is highly valued in the East. Now try to remember the films in which the action takes place on Christmas or New Year's Eve.

And in the East, every animal is a symbol. And each of them has its own motto. You have to guess which one is which. All are given 5 minutes. For example, the motto of a parrot is "repetition is the mother of learning." (Hand out leaflets with the names of animals.)

1. Parrot - “Repetition is the mother of learning!”

2. Kangaroo - ____________________________

3. Crocodile - ___________________________

4. Locust - ____________________________

And now we would like to see 4 girls and 4 young people on stage.

New Year is a special holiday. Why? Yes, because! On this day, a fairy tale walks across our planet in the most legitimate way. Especially in the mysterious land of the East!

The Sultan had 4 beautiful daughters. And so, one fine day, 4 suitors wooed them. But the father loved his daughters so much that he considered these young people unworthy. And then he decided to test them. And the old and wise Sultan set them the following condition: which couple proves their ingenuity and love, that one will seal their bonds by marriage on the Great New Year holiday!

According to our Eastern traditions, in order to seduce a man or a girl, one must be distinguished not only by beauty, but also by intelligence. Now we invite our young people to compose a poem praising your girl, with the proposed rhymes:
East is a flower
Snow is a person
Love is a carrot
Honey is ice.

According to legend, any oriental woman should be able to dance. Therefore, you girls must show your best.

In addition, Eastern men must be excellent sculptors of their love. In the East, a girl is given in marriage, and she does not know who will become her husband. Therefore, we blindfold the girls, and young people must “sculpt” figures out of them. Whoever has the most harmonious figure wins. And you, the audience, must remember, and then evaluate their creations.

In the East, wives love and honor their husbands very much. Now the girls should take turns complimenting their Oriental men. On whom the chain stops, that girl is considered the winner.

Even on such a holiday as the New Year, there is always room for love and love always wins.
- So, we, the pearls of the East, according to Eastern wisdom, wish you all health in the coming year, because this is the highest value, peace, because this is happiness ...
- ... And most importantly, great love !!!

At the beginning, all objects are placed, a tablecloth is laid on the table, a hookah is placed in the middle, the table is set, oriental music is turned on in the background.
Meeting with guests.
Scheherazade greets all guests with the words:
Already a thousand nights
We do not close our quivering eyes:
We tell stories to the people
And we weave carpets of patterned speeches.
The night is one thousand and one:
The full moon shines in the sky.
Today there will be a fairy tale "About the Sultan"
- We hope you like it.
To set the mood for an oriental theme + as a present about an oriental party, each guest is offered a packaged halva, but the halva is “unusual” - a twisted piece of paper is tied to each piece with a bow, on which the guest can read oriental wisdom (see attachment). Sayings are all different, the guest chooses, not knowing what is inside - an element of the game.
Scheherazade: there are many smart people in the east, who knows, maybe this wisdom will help you in life.
And escorts guests to the place of rest.
The main congratulatory part.
Scheherazade:
Andrey is a prominent guy
And for many, he is enviable.
Because we all, friends,
You can't really argue with him!
He does not name his age.
Everything is hidden under a secret.
I give you the exact answer:
"The hero of the day is few years old."
Andrew!
If you want to live in wonder
Perform the rituals on this birthday.
Because this is sacred
We bring wine to you dear.
So that there is always a balyk in the house,
Take 30 drops of wine on your tongue.
(Pipette drip 30 drops on the tongue of the hero of the day.)
To drink cognac in the evenings,
You must drink this wine today, 30 grams.
(Pour 30 grams to the hero of the day.)
So that your life goes on oil,
We will consecrate you with this wine.
(With a brush dipped in wine, the hero of the day is “consecrated” with ears, chin, nose.)
Through all these rituals,
Pour wine into glasses for guests.
(The hero of the day pours for the guests.)
(after the glasses are poured)
Scheherazade: Since the glasses are full, I propose to honor our hero of the day, everyone will say a word to us, continuing the phrase "Our hero of the day is the most ...".
(guests in a circle continue this phrase with some adjective)
Shahraza ends the general toast with the words:
You are our most, most
The most expensive.
We all love you
Always be like this!
Game part.
(After the guests have eaten, drank and relaxed, a game is offered in the middle of the evening.)
Shahrazade: We all know the wonderful collection of Arabic fairy tales "1001 Nights". What is the point of these stories? Faced with the infidelity of his first wife, Sultan Shahriyar takes a new wife every day and executes her at dawn the next day. However, this terrible order is broken when he marries Shahrazade, the wise daughter of his vizier. Every night she tells a fascinating story and interrupts the story "at the most interesting place" - and the king is unable to refuse to hear the end of the story.
We have a Sultan - our Anniversary. (A drawing paper is unfolded, where the hero of the day is depicted in a humorous sultanic form). Scheherazade is also available, but a real sultan is supposed to live fabulously, so I suggest that each guest take a marker and draw what he wishes for the birthday man or what, in his opinion, the sultan should have. Draw, but do not name, and we will all guess.
(all guests draw, guess and evaluate each other's work).
Well, now it's time to wash the gifts. (glasses are poured)
(a little later towards the end of the evening)
Scheherazade:
We present the jug to the birthday man in the dance,
From the bottom of our hearts, we ask you to accept it today.
Our dear hero of the day!
When you taste the contents of the jar,
Then you can see the fabulous genie.
(The hero of the day drinks water from a jug, a genie appears.)
Genie (one of the guests with a turban on his head):
No wonder you rubbed your jug,
The genie is now free.
I will be your servant
I will execute any order of yours.
I read your thoughts
I have known about the anniversary for a long time.
You don't have to tell me
I know what to give you.
To immediately disappear in the bones of the ache,
Dance with us "Belly Dance".
(Oriental music sounds. A dancer appears and dances a belly dance)
Culmination of the evening.
A cake is brought out with candles.
Scheherazade:
Like Andryushin's birthday
We baked a loaf
Here is such a beauty.
And you don't yawn
Make a wish
And blow out the candles.
After that, a second belly dance with scarves is danced.
