Thank you! It was very touching play. Now let us watch the second play. It’s about fruits. Its title is “Fruit Present.”

“Fruit Present”

Characters:Story-teller, Girl, Pineapple, Banana, Cherries, Plum, Pear, Orange, Apple, Mother.
Story-teller:
Once a girl decided to bake a pie for her mother’s birthday. She took some fruit out of the fridge and began to think what kind of pie she would bake. And the fruit began to argue.
Pineapple:
Everybody knows that pineapple is the king of the table! Look how beautiful I am! I even have a crown of leaves on my head!
Banana:
But nobody bakes pies with pineapples. A pie with banana and apple is quite a different thing! It is so tasty!
Cherries:
The best pie in the world is cherry pie! Just imagine-this pie is sweet and sour at the same time.
Plum:
But plum is very good, too. You are too sour, while the banana is too sweet! Plum pie is the tastiest in the world!
Story-teller:
The fruit quarreled. Now they were sitting in different corners of the room and didn’t want to talk to each other. The poor girl didn’t know what to do- it was her mother’s birthday and she had no pie at all! What if she put all the fruit together?
Girl:
That is a very good idea. I am very glad of it. First of all I’ ll make my batter and then cut the fruit.
Story-teller:
But the fruit didn’t like it.
Fruit (all together):
You can’t put us in your pie together. It is impossible! It is so ugly!
Pear:
If you mix us, the pineapple will become red from the cherry’s juice.
Orange:
And the banana will become blue from the plum’s juice!
Apple:
Besides, the banana is very soft and if you put it together with the pear, the banana will melt while the pear will be hard!
Fruit (all together):
We are not going to sit together in the same pie!
Girl:
But what should I go? I wanted to celebrate my mother’s birthday ever so much!
Fruit:
It’s quite simple . We will prepare a fruit dinner.
Girl:
But what is that?
Banana:
For example you can prepare a very tasty fruit salad. You need a banana, an apple and a pear.
Orange:
You can make a wonderful pudding out of me!
Girl:
Very well! We’ll make an orange pudding. And what about the cherries?
Cherries:
We’ll be the dessert. You can dress us with cream and put us into small glasses.
Girl:
That’s great! So I’ll bake a plum pie.
Plum:
I agree!
Story-teller:
The plum liked this very much. She knew that she was very good for people’s health and that doctors advise people to eat plums in the morning.
Girl:
But what about the pineapple?
Story-teller:
The girl was glad that the fruit were not quarrelling.
Girl:
We have forgotten about you!
Pine apple:
Oh, no! I’ll be the decoration of the table. Besides, you can cut me into pieces so everyone will get me.
Story-teller:
And so they did. When Mother came there was a real celebration.
Fruit (all together):
Sing the song “Happy Birthday!”
Mother:
What a clever daughter I have! How did you do it?
Girl:
My friends helped me! Thank them very much!
Story-teller:
All the fruit were lying on the table and were very happy.

Persons of the play:
Mr. Pratt, an absent-minded man
Mr. Stillkins, his friend
Mr. Mowitt, a young man
Mrs. Pratt
Mrs. Pratt’s mother, mrs. Snowdon

Scene 1:
Mr. Pratt appears pushing a pram in front of the curtain. There is a complete change of clothing in the pram, everything but the baby.
Pratt pushes the pram slowly and talks to hem self. When he comes to enumeration the baby’s clothes, he stops and lilts them up for in spection.
Mr. Pratt:
What a pity that my wife has gone to visit her mother and has left the baby behind. Now I have the trouble of talking everything to her, and I am afraid I have forgotten something. (Pratt stops and scratches his head). Let me see. (Taking the things out). Flannel petticoats, bibs, socks. No, it isn’t that. There is something missing. Now let us start at the baby’s head and work down wards: bonnet, bib, flannel petticoat, socks… .Oh, no, that won’t do either.
He scratches his head. At this time stillkins appears from the opposite side of the stage.
Mr. Pratt:
Look here, Stillkins, think over your family and tell me what your babies wear. Start from morning and work down to the night.
Mr. Stillkins:
(Looking at his friend in wonder). Seems to me, your head wants some fresh air.
Mr. Pratt:
Oh, no. You see, I am taking the baby to his mother and I’ve forgotten one of his things- remind me what it is.
Mr. Stillkins: (At once)
Bibs?
Mr. Pratt:
No, I’ve thought of them dozens of times.
Mr. Stillkins:
Lace collars? Socks? Handkerchiefs?
Mr. Pratt:
No, it isn’t that.
Mr. Stillkins:
Flannel petticoats?
Mr. Pratt:
No, no, it isn’t that!
A young man approaches them, and Pratt seems very glad to see him.
Mr. Pratt:
I say, Mowitt, three heads are better than two. I’ve forgotten something belonging to the baby. Can’t you tell me what it is?
Mr. Mowitt:
Bibs?
Mr. Pratt:
Oh, dash it, no!
Mr. Stillkins:
Oh, no, we’ve thought of that lots of times.
They walk off the stage enumeration the things.

Scene 2:
A door to the lefts. Mr. Pratt and his friends approach the door. Pratt pushes the pram, the others mutter: “A bib? No, it isn’t. Flannel petticat? No, hot that.” Pratt rings at the door, the others stand at the door muttering:”Bibs, socks, bonnet, napkins.”
The door opens and Mrs. Pratt and her mother appears in the door.
Mrs. Pratt (to friends):
Hello, I am Mrs. Pratt.
Mrs. Pratt’s mother:
Hello, I am her mother, Mrs. Snowdon!
Mrs. Pratt wheels up the pram, his friends stand modestly aside. Mrs. Pratt runs to the pram to take the baby.
Mr. Pratt (to his wife who looks at the pram in horror, and then throws bibs, petticoats, etc. out, looking for the baby):
I know I’ve forgotten something, Lizzie, I’ve tried to remember, Stillkins and Mowitt… also…
Mrs. Pratt (shrieks):
Bibs?! Petticoats?! Socks?! You, idiot, where is the baby??!!
Everybody stands horror striken.
