Script for the concert program of the circus studio. Scenario of the competition and game program "The circus lights the lights

Circus ... Circus? The circus! - scenario

Each of the game contests requires special props. Before the start of the circus performance, children participating in the competitions are given colored tokens, which helps to easily organize teams at the right time. All competitions are accompanied by rhythmic music.

Prizes are prepared in advance for each competition: books, pens, notebooks, pencils, bookmarks, etc.

Leading. Today we will go with you ... guess where? That's right, to the circus. An extraordinary performance awaits us! Why extraordinary?

Because in an ordinary circus, performers are performers, behold, they are spectators. And in our circus you yourself will be both spectators and artists.

Before starting our program, please introduce yourself to each other, as real artists, I will announce: "They are taking part in an extraordinary circus performance ...", and you will loudly announce your names. Ready! "They participate in an extraordinary circus performance ... (children loudly call their names.) Nice to meet you!"

(The musical epigraph of the circus program sounds.)

Leading. Well, we met each other. You, as true artists, are prepared to participate in the performance.

But it seems that we forgot to meet another circus artist, the funniest participant in any circus program. Who is he? (the children call it.) Of course, the clown. So, let's call our clown Klepa to us. Prepared. (children call Klepa). 'The clown juggles out to the children

Clown. Hello kids, hello kids! What a young change I have growing up! And you know, I have been working in the circus for so many years, I have learned a lot, because there are so many interesting genres in the circus.

Do you know them? Name! (children list.)

Did you know that the circus was born almost 200 years ago and was initially only equestrian, i.e. nothing but horse racing was shown in the circus. But the horses pranced so beautifully!

Leading. Guys, let's make our Klepa a gift. We will arrange for him an equestrian show, but not a simple one, but with real riders and jugglers.

Competition "Horses"

A horse-riding competition is being held. Those who wish are invited to the stage with tokens ... colors.

Participants are given "horses" - animal heads on a long stick. To the music, children, like riders, run in a circle. At this time, the leader stands in the middle of the circle and throws a ball to the runners. If the participant loses the horse "or drops the ball, he is eliminated from the game.

The competition continues until the winner is determined.

Klepa. What good fellows you guys are! So they made me happy. Do you know that nowadays there are a lot of animals and birds performing in the circus. Guess who I'm talking about.

The mansions are white

The props are red. (Geese.)

Silent during the day

Screams at night. (Owl.)

Gray hat,

Non-woven vest,

A pockmarked caftan,

And he walks barefoot. (Crow)

Small ears

Huddle together

Wool rings

And there is a hoof. (Sheep)

With a beard will be born,

Nobody is surprised. (Goat)

There is a heap in the middle of the yard:

In front of the pitchfork, behind the broom. (Cow.)

In the mountains, in the valleys

There is a fur coat and a caftan. (Sheep.)

Four legs, fifth tail,

Sixth mane. (Horse.)

The foot is soft

And the claw is upright. (Cat.)

The legs are thin, the sides are ringing

And the tail is a squiggle. (Dog.)

The ears are long, large,

And his eyes are slanting.

Short tail, gray fur,

He is in the forest of cowards of all. (Hare.)

Waddling along the path

Pillows and feather beds to the water.

They are beautiful swimmers

On paws

The fins are red. (Geese.)

Leading. And I want to say that in Moscow there is a real cat circus of Yuri Kuklachev. Indeed, what kind of animals you will not see in the circus! What's the biggest animal you've seen in a circus? (Elephant) And what is the smallest? (Ant.)

Clown. Since we are having a real extraordinary performance, why don't some of the guys turn into hardworking ants?

Competition "Ants"

Teams of four are lined up at the door of the hall. The first member of each team runs through the hall past the first row to the opposite wall, then comes back, and now, holding on to a stick ("reed"), the "ants" run together, then three, four. The winner is the team that is the first to return to its door, without losing any "straw" or "ants" on the way.

Leading. Guys! What do you think viewers do when they want to thank the artists? Whistling? Are they shouting? Knocking your feet?

That's right, they applaud. let's and we'll learn to applaud. When the host comes out at the beginning of the performance, we do not applaud very strongly, politely and restrainedly, as if we are saying: "Thank you for the performance to begin." Let's try to applaud as if the show is just beginning. (Children applaud.)

Well done! And if you liked the performance of the artist, how do we applaud? (Applause.)

And if you really liked it? (Applause.) Well done, real thunderous applause.

And if you liked the performance very, very much? (Applause.)

Great, it was a prolonged applause, turning into a standing ovation.

Clown. Here you guys said that I am the most the main character in the circus. Do you know which number is the most important. This number is often called fatal.

Leading. In order to perform this number, we need to choose the bravest boy in the hall. (The host announces who is speaking.)

Attraction "Death number"

The daredevil is given a tray with a vase of flowers on it. It must be carried to the table, carefully bypassing obstacles in the way - pins. The difficulty of completing the task lies in the fact that the participant is blindfolded and he must remember where the pins are and not knock them down while moving to the table. But when the participant is blindfolded, the pins are quietly removed.

Spectators have a lot of fun watching the daredevil overcome obstacles.

Clown. Well, was it scary? After all, all the guys hid under the chairs. Do you want me to make you laugh? Only you can help me.

Children rise to the stage. The clown puts on them clown noses backstage. The audience laughs.

Leading. Now artists of a very interesting genre will take part in our performance. Without saying a word, they will be able to tell us a lot of interesting things. Do you think it's easy? Try all together, not with words, but with the help of facial expressions and gestures, say the phrase: “Give me a balalaika.

And now: “I have a big balloon". Well, everyone did it very well. Klepa, I think that the artists are ready to demonstrate their skills, and you guys, guess what they are telling us about.

Contest of facial expressions and gestures

Three participants with clown noses alternately depict lines of famous children's poems by A. Barto with the help of facial expressions and gestures:

Clubfoot bear ...;

There is a goby swinging ...;

I love my horse ...

Klepa. I think the guys are worthy of your thunderous applause. You know, I was just behind the curtains and watched with great interest you - the audience who are sitting in the hall. Everyone behaves differently, although there are a number of rules of behavior in the theater, in the cinema, at the circus performance.

Do you want me to tell you about them?

Bad advice.

You can enter the hall whenever you want. If spectators are already sitting in it, do not be afraid, make your way to your place, step on everyone's feet. You can eat a delicious chocolate bar. During the performance - why does it melt in your pocket! You can, if you like a concert, stomp, shout.

And you can hardly see behind the head of the girl sitting in front, pull her braids + let her bend down. In general, make yourself at home.

Leading. Guys, tell Klepe how to behave in the hall, otherwise he doesn't see anything behind the scenes. (Children answer.)

And now we will hold a music quiz with you, and Klepa will invite its winners to participate in our performance.

Quiz "Seven Questions About Music"

1. How many notes are there in total? (7.)

2. Which instrument has 3 strings? (At the balalaika.)

3. What spring bird did the composer Alyabyev dedicated his work to? (Nightingale.)

4. What kind of wind instruments do you know? musical instruments? (Trumpet, saxophone, flute, etc.)

5. What musical instrument did Crocodile Gena play? (On an accordion.)

6. With whom did the lion cub sing a duet his song "I lie in the sun"? (With a turtle.)

7. Who sang the song of the Snow Maiden in the New Year's edition “Well, wait (Hare.)

Klepa. Here they are, the smartest, the most inquisitive. Today I told you so many interesting things, please you too.

Let the singers perform at our circus, because we have an extraordinary performance.

Contest "Notes"

Seven participants take the stage - the winners of the music quiz. They are pinned in advance prepared emblems with notes: do-re-mi-fa-sol-la-si. Each note is offered to sing a verse of your favorite song.

And the audience, with the help of applause, determines the winner to whom they clap louder - that will receive a prize.

Leading. Thank you guys. You have brought great pleasure to our Klepa, and he has made us happy many times today. Truth?

(Children Answer.)

Klepa. Since you liked me so much, then so be it, I'll show you one trick, but you must help me again. I give this camomile to all the girls, and this bell to all the boys.

As soon as you catch the butterflies, rather run to your flower and plant them on it, and then we'll see who did this miracle trick better.

Leading. Well, guys, I ask you to get up, to return to face the chairs and quickly catch your butterflies.

Competition "Butterflies"

Flowers are attached on tablets on both sides of the stage (hall), and paper butterflies are pinned under the seats of the spectators. You need to find them, run to the stage and plant a butterfly on your (chamomile or bell) flower. They pin the butterflies with pins or tape, which are served by Klepa's assistants.

Event progress:

Leading: Hello dear guys and dear adults!
Everyone is looking in the middle
In the middle is the magic:
There the eccentric bunny took out
Out of your pocket.
There's a dancer under the dome
Flew away like a tit.
There the dogs were dancing ...
You, of course, have been there.
What is it guys? (The circus).
Music sounds.
Leading: Of course it is THE CIRCUS! The circus is one of the most ancient, massive and popular types art. Today we are waiting for a Journey to the circus! It is the circus that brings extraordinary fun and joy into the lives of children. Bears riding bicycles, tigers jumping into flaming rings, acrobats mastering the most difficult tricks, etc. - all this leads to an indescribable delight not only for children, but sometimes for us adults as well. Today holiday "The circus has come to us!".

This is followed by a presentation or report by children about the history of the circus.
Approximate content:
The circus- from the Latin word "circle", refers more to racing than to other types of entertainment.
Man has always loved to be entertained. V Ancient Greece for example, there were chariot races, in China - the "serpent man", in Egypt - a trainer of wild animals. Over time, the idea of ​​combining these and other entertainments in a circus appeared in Rome.
Circus art is much older than the Roman performances, which attracted thousands of spectators. For the first time (3500 BC) it appeared in China. Chinese circus performers mainly demonstrated balancing act, acrobatic and gymnastic numbers, as well as juggling. It is these numbers that the Chinese are famous for to this day. The Chinese circus is a spectacle in which performers demonstrate incredible flexibility in their bodies. V Ancient China circus art was represented by acrobatic performances, maintaining balance while performing complex exercises: in the Chinese circus there were no numbers with the participation of animals.
In turn, the ancient Roman circuses - monumental structures for several thousand spectators - were primarily places for horse carriage competitions. Later, after the invention of the folding circus tent, mobile circus troupes appeared.

Circus "Maximus" appeared in the III century BC. It was also the largest: it could accommodate 150,000 people. When the Romans came to the circus, they found themselves more than ever in the beautiful entertainment area. There they sold sweets and other products. Admission was free, because the rulers used circuses to satisfy the people, distract from social problems and worries.
There were no organized circuses in the Middle Ages. Troupes of artists traveled from city to city, showing tricks of varying complexity.
The first circus, most similar to the modern one, was created by the Englishman Phillip Astley in 1768.
This is how the circus emerged from the ordinary performance and love of man for horses. In order to attract students and earn more money Philip began to conduct demonstrations of his riders. Things went well for him, very soon he was able to build a special building, which had a domed roof, an arena, a round auditorium and a stage with an orchestra.
On August 4, 1777, the first circus performance took place in this building, which was then called the Astley Amphitheater. At first, all performances consisted exclusively of numbers with horses. Wonders of training and acrobatics were shown. However, over time, combined performances began to be staged in the "Amphitheater", where there were both performances with riders and other performances. The first circus programs involved dog trainers, tightrope walkers, clowns, acrobats, pantomime and jugglers.
Astley's idea was also interested in other countries. Since then, circuses have become a popular show all over the world.

Leading: The circus is bright, breathtaking or optimistic performances. Indeed, where, if not in the circus, can you see so many extraordinary personalities with unique abilities, skills and a willingness to tirelessly entertain the audience? At first glance, it seems that life circus artist full of carelessness and fun, but, meanwhile, his work is very hard work.
Representatives of many specialties work in the circus: trainers, illusionists, clowns, acrobats, athletes, aerialists, equilibrists, riders other.
All professions are before our eyes, they are written on the board or hang on the stand.
Leading: It takes years of training for each of these professionals to master their skills. In such a field, those who are not ready to devote circus art all of my life. The circus for them is not just a place of work. For everyone who has chosen to serve the circus art as their profession, this is life, this is a home, this is a family.
A circus performer must have the following qualities:
- perseverance and patience;
- good physical data;
- exactingness towards oneself and others;
- creative thinking;
- ease of work;
- acting skills;
- physical endurance;
- readiness for daily risk;
- lightness;
- the ability to overcome fear and fatigue.
All the qualities are in front of your eyes
they are written on the board or hang on the stand.
Leading: Let's see if you have these qualities?
Competition "Merry pantomime". Everyone is invited to participate. The task is given. In 5 minutes you need to come up with a pantomime and show it to all the participants of the holiday. Those who do well and those who guess right receive souvenirs as a keepsake.
Sample tasks:
Portray famous painting, a proverb, a line from a well-known poem.
Leading: A modern circus is, first of all, entertainment, so the performance of clowns is an obligatory element of it.

Leading: Children's favorites - brightly colored actors in huge shoes with artificial red noses are designed to amuse the audience. It is not easy and often requires a variety of talents - acting, musical and gymnastics. The most popular representatives of this group of circus performers are acrobats, mimes - "redheads" and "white", whose images originated from traditional comedic characters - Harlequin and Pierrot.
This is followed by the work of children in pairs. They apply makeup to each other with special paints. You can invite a professional to the holiday who will help the children, or you can handle it yourself with the involvement of parents.
1 child:
Clown Red, Clown White,
The clown is a coward and a clown is brave,
Clown Bom and Clown Bim,
The clown can be anything.
Staring at their tricks,
We shout: "Wow!" ...
Only the villainous clown
It never happens!
Leading: Next competition "Clowns Dress Up".
For this competition it is necessary to divide into 2 teams, boys and girls, children and parents, etc. are allowed. The attributes are already ready for the competition: wigs, noses, ties, bows and so on. At a signal, the teams begin to put on all the attributes of a clown. The team that quickly and correctly cope with the task wins.
Cheerful music sounds. At the end of the competition, children in costumes dance. Some children, who prepared the clown's number in advance, act out scenes, amuse the guests.
Leading: There is also dangerous work in the circus.

2 child:
If you tremble in your hands, do not touch
This sharp long knife -
First, calm down the trembling
And then you throw it!
Leading: Equilibrist and acrobatic numbers require extraordinary skill, which comes only as a result of many years of training, as, for example, in acrobatic tricks on trapezes under a circus dome, invented in France in the middle of the 19th century. This requires an accurate sense of timing, dexterity, strength and flexibility of the body. Riding a unicycle, which requires an exceptional sense of balance, and throwing knives at a target are no less difficult numbers. Each incorrectly executed movement is associated with a huge risk and can threaten the life of the artist.
3 child:
There are countless hoops on it:
Ten, twenty, twenty six,
Twenty nine, thirty three ...
Where is the artist?
There, inside ...
Oh, is she playing hide and seek?
We can see the heels anyway!

This is followed by contests: "Javelin throwing", "Skittles", "Town", "Who turns the hoop longer", "Who jumps more on the rope" and others. All competitions are held with the help of parents. This is followed by children's gymnastic performances, with ribbons, clubs, hoops, balls and other attributes.
Leading: Guys, I suggest you - Contest of riddles "What do I know about the circus?".
Sample riddles:
Whether in Moscow,
Whether in Prague,
Whether in Madrid,
Who is in the circus
The most important?
(Spectators).
Waving a wand -
The predators are dancing.
Frowns her face -
The lion will jump into the ring.
Is he a traffic controller?
No, this is ... (trainer).

Any object in my hands
As if bewitched.
There is a ball, but no!
Here appeared again!
Now there, now here, That is not, that is!
And now there are countless balls!
Look, gone!
Where can I get them ?!
And it's very strange,
That I get them again ...
Out of your pocket!
(Magician).
The ring is on fire, it burns
The gymnast flies through the ring
In flight, he fluffed up his mane
And wagged his tail playfully.
(A lion).
"Woof wow," the champion shouts to us.
On two front paws, he
Stands on a narrow board
And with an apple on his head.
(Dog).
The juggler performs on stage
He throws balls with his trunk
Standing on a paw, on one,
He's very nice and funny.
(Elephant).
He used to sleep in a den,
The circus called him over.
He lifts weights -
The circus artist is strong.
(Bear).
Souvenirs are given to all the first ones to guess.
Leading: Classic numbers are performances of trained animals. The program may include performances of dogs riding on bicycles, juggling seals with balls, as well as horse riding. Particularly popular are performances featuring dangerous animals such as bears, lions, tigers and elephants. The sight of a trainer putting his head in a lion's mouth is heart-stopping, but just as exciting can be the sight of huge elephants standing on two legs like little dogs.

4 child:
Have a well-bred dog
There is no time for a fight.
She needs to solve examples
Jump over barriers
Bring balls in your teeth
Dance on two legs
Make your bed
And train cats.
Then the guys who prepared the numbers with their pets perform. (Necessarily with the help of parents). Animals must be safe. If there are children with animal allergies in the class, then this item should be removed from the scenario.
Leading: There are a lot of interesting things in the circus. Let's see and listen to our guys. They prepared Heading "Do you know?" and tricks.
Sample messages:
Beneath the huge circus tent are seats for spectators and an orchestra, as well as an arena for artists.
V old days the audience was very attracted by the performances of the fire eaters.
Many people think that showing trained animals is cruel. For animals - such as lions - to become obedient, safe and follow human orders, they have to be trained for years with the most ruthless methods. Often animals are kept in inappropriate conditions, for example, in cages that are too small, where they are deprived of the opportunity to move and play freely. Therefore, some modern circuses are returning to Chinese forms of entertainment - no animal performances, only fantastic performances of superbly trained people.
In addition to the usual circus, there is also the “Circus on the Water” and “Circus on Ice”, in which circus performers perform tricks in the water and on skates.
Next, the children show tricks prepared in advance.
Leading: And now competition of reciters "Poems about the circus".
Sample verses:
Clown in the circus -
It's a clown!
The whole people laugh with him!
In three streams he sheds tears
That sings under the dome!
Everyone laughs
He is crying!
Climbs to the tigers on the rampage!
I have a big dream:
I'll be a clown!
How is he!

For childish joy
The wandering circus has arrived.
Singing and ringing
Everything in it is as in the present.

The gymnast flies, and the horse gallops,
The fox jumps into the fire
Dogs learn to count
It turns out the ponies to roll them.
The monkey hurries to the mirror
And the clown makes the audience laugh.

At the end comes the sorcerer
And in front of all people
Out of nothing, out of the void
He gets flowers alive
Then, as if for a game,
Throws balls to the audience.
The kids' eyes are shining
And doves are flying into the sky!

My mother and I visited the circus
(I dreamed about it for a long time).
We've seen different artists
And I liked the juggler.

Throwing plates in the air
And he didn't drop a single one!
I just held my breath
I clapped to him as much as I could!

I wanted to try
How to grow up, become a juggler.
Get a little practice
And then perform in the circus.

I took the plates out of the closet,
And he began tossing, like he ...
But the plates fell to the floor
And they fought, making a ringing sound.

Probably looking at the juggler
I overlooked some secret ...
Eh, he will get it soon! ..
I didn't want to be a juggler!

Their jumps are light and mark.
The lion's roar is like thunder.
Even in a circus, even in a cage
The lion remains king.

The poor yogi lay down on a saber!
The unfortunate yogi ate the coals!
Do not be alarmed, children,
This is the clown Petya!
Coals - from carrots,
Sabers - made of rope,
Looking out of the basket
Cobra made of rubber!

The circus is a world of smiles, fairy tales, childhood and kindness. Children especially love him - for the fact that the circus easily transforms the everyday daily life into a bright a fairy tale, develops physically, educates character and teaches us to overcome our weaknesses.

The song "Circus, circus, circus" performed by O. Popov is played.
