The New Year season, followed by the Orthodox Christmas is one of the most exuberant times of the year in Russia.

The main highlight of Friday’s programme was the staging of the musical fairy tale “The New Year Adventures of Masha and Vitya”. The theme of the fairytale revolved around friendship, which was projected as the greatest magic in the world. The audience, especially the children, were enthralled.

An exhibition of 50 paintings depicting the theme of New Year and Christmas by students of the Art School, RCSC, was also displayed on the occasion. The RCSC hall was decorated, with the Christmas tree and gifts, and a festive atmosphere pervaded the entire environment. The presence of Santa Clause boosted the children’s enthusiasm.
