St. Valentine's Day

St. Valentine’s Day is a religious holiday, which is celebrated in Great Britain, in the USA and in many European countries. St. Valentine’s Day has roots in several legends.

“This is the legend of how St. Valentine’s Day began. When the Roman Emperor Claudius II needed soldiers, he made a law against marrying because he felt that marriage made men want to stay at home instead of fighting wars. But at that time there was a kind priest named Valentine. He couldn’t agree with the emperor’s decision. When he saw that young couples were truly in love, he married them secretly.”

На сцену выходят юноша и девушка . они падают на колени и жестами умоляют священника совершить обряд бракосочетания. Священник выполняет их просьбу.

Священник: My daughter! My son! I declare you husband and wife!

Звучит марш Мендельсона. Врывается стража.

Стражник 1: Priest, you have been discovered and condemned to death!

Стражник 2: To prison! To the Tower!

Следующая сцена: священник в тюрьме. Входит тюремщик с дочерью.

Священник: What a beautiful girl!

Тюремщик: This is my daughter. She is blind! She will probably never see the light, trees, the Moon! (cries)

Священник: I’ll help her by working a miracle!

Через некоторое время. Дочь тюремщика радуется и показывает, что к ней вернулось зрение.

Девушка: I’m so grateful to you. Even in prison you, Valentine, showed your love for everyone and restored my sight!

Священник: Unfortunately, tomorrow on February 14 I will have to die. But I’m not scared and I want to tell everybody on Earth: “I love you. I’m your Valentine.”

Голос из-за кулис: Just before his death, on February 14, he sent her a farewell message signed “From your Valentine”

There are many other legends about how Valentine’s Day started, and no one knows for sure whether any of them are true.
