Santa Claus in a balaclava and with a gun came to the children in Mytishchi for a holiday

As the school director Oksana Pisak explained to Rise, the actor played the Grinch, the kidnapper of Christmas. “We played a scene in which an evil character steals Christmas. He takes the bag of wishes. But after he is returned by the good reindeer of Santa Claus”, - explained the director of the gymnasium. The director admits that it didn't work out very well.

In addition to the unusual character, Santa Claus and Snegurochka were also involved in the scenes, the school director added. “In general, everything went great, all the actors were good-natured, everyone was smiling, New Year's music was playing. But they did not come up with a toy machine very well”, - Pisak noted, adding that the children's parents did not complain about the “armed” kidnapper of Christmas.

Earlier, the amateur activities of the teachers in the Tyumen city of Ishim turned into a scandal. During a life safety lesson with fifth-graders at the local school # 2, they decided to stage a hostage-taking. An actor wearing a mask and with a machine gun burst into the classroom, which greatly frightened the children. As planned, the children were supposed to emotionally prepare for a non-standard situation, so that if this happened in reality, the children were ready for it. At the same time, one student became ill during such a performance. An ambulance was called for him. The school principals and the educational institution itself were fined.
