The new charity project, Light Angel New Year Marathon, will start in St. Petersburg on December 15. The event has been organized by When You Are Needed Charity Foundation in cooperation with Mikhail Bazhenov’s Foundation and with support of Adamant Holding, Ginza Project Restaurant Holding and Konditer-Service Company. The goal of the Light Angel Marathon is to make sure that the children who do not feel well enough to leave the hospital and visit a celebration do not miss out on the fun during this fairy tale season. Adamant Company provided creativity materials and educational games for the children.
Starting on December 15, the Theater Retro-Bus will take teams of actors from the best St. Petersburg theaters to hospitals where children with severe diseases, mostly cancer, are undergoing treatment. The children will watch New Year fairy tales presented in the site–specific format; these will be the shows adapted to the environment in which they take place and the audience, nothing like the banal “morning cartoons.” To assist with this project, many people have joined their efforts, including talented theater directors and actors – Maria Romanova, Alexander Cherkashin, Mikhail Dragunov and many others.
