On the basis of Ludos Jakimavičius' fairy tale "The Cat and the Rooster Searched for Christmas".
Everyone seems to agree that Christmas is a time of miracles. And what if the expected miracle does not happen? What if the received gift does not make you happy, and the plans start and collapse during the height of the holidays - the pots are sizzling, the work does not go away, and even a blizzard rises outside the window, preventing your loved ones from coming?
Ensemble "Lietuva" invites the little ones to the Christmas musical performance "Michael's Dream". As every year, characters from fairy tales that are easily recognizable to children appear here, which will be embodied by the performers of the "Lietuva" ensemble - a choir, dancers and an orchestra of national instruments. The musical fairy tale will delight you with live music and playful theatrical performances, in which the audience will willingly get involved.
Little Mikalojs lives in a wealthy family, where he is surrounded by toys and things. Mikalaj's parents work a lot, so the boy spends most of his time with his young sister, who does not yet speak fluently. When a storm hits on Christmas Eve, it turns out that his much-anticipated cousins, with whom he makes up all kinds of candies, won't be coming to celebrate the holidays with him - and that means the most boring Christmas ever!
When the evening comes, Mikaloj decides to stay awake and wait for Santa Claus, but Mikaloj doesn't care about the gifts he brings - the toys barely fit in the closet anyway - this time he's going to ask Santa for a miracle - one that would save this boring Christmas. However, little Nicholas cannot resist a sweet sleep and falls into a strange dream, during which Nicholas hears St. The secret of Christmas is that true joy comes not from receiving, but from giving. As soon as he wakes up, little Mikalaj turns Christmas morning into a real miracle for his family.
Ensemble "Lietuva" thus aims to develop the identity and values of the young generation - what our grandparents and parents grew up with, we grew up with and our children will grow up with. The children's performances of the ensemble are very popular - Lithuanian instruments such as birbynė, kankles or skrabalai are always played here, diversifying the traditional sound in a modern way.
