"Generation of Mowgli" is a kind of reporting performance, demonstrating the results of the fund's project.

Storyline

The play "Generation of Mowgli", staged based on the immortal work of R. Kipling "Mowgli", tells how often in our time parents do not pay attention to their children, because of which they grow up on their own, fall into in good and bad company, just as Mowgli grew up in a pack of wolves. Throughout the action, the question remains whether the parents will understand that they need to educate their children so that they do not become modern Mowgli. The plot of the play does not repeatcompletely a fairy tale, the action is transferred to our time. Douglas Mowgli does not end up in a tropical forest, as in R. Kipling, but finds himself on the outskirts of a modern big city - in a stone jungle. The main character left home because his parents do not pay attention to him, although his family is among the prosperous, his father is the deputy mayor of the city, besides, the boy really wants to be friends with him and love him not for whose son he is but for what he is himself, for what kind of person he is. He will have many discoveries, he will see different people, each of whom has his own outlook on life and his own values. This is a bright production in which there is something to laugh and cry over, there is something to think about. A whole storm of emotions for both young and adult spectators will be caused by the play "Generation of Mowgli". Its duration is 2 hours. It reminds you that the most important values in life are family and friends, that you need to be honest, kind, compassionate and take care of those who need help. This instructive tale will tell children how to be themselves and find the "truth". And she will tell her parents that the main thing in raising a child is to give him as much time and attention as possible, because no, even the best educators, no toys, entertainment, attractions can replace parental love and warmth.

The Konstantin Khabensky Foundation uses all proceeds from the performance for charitable purposes - for the treatment of seriously ill children. Thus, each viewer gets the opportunity not only to watch an interesting fairy tale, but also toto do two good deeds at once - to support young aspiring actors and to make a small financial contribution to helping sick children.
