On April 9, a traditional English-language skit was held for students Faculty of EconomicsThis year it was organized for the 10th time.
This tradition began a long time ago: from 2009 to 2014, English Language Days were held, but in a different format. In 2015, English teachers at the Faculty of Economics found a new form for annual vibrant events that unite students and provide space for language practice outside the curriculum and academic pairs. The neologism Cabbage Pie Party was specially invented for this event. These are theatrical skits that include various performances, and at the end, all participants are traditionally treated to cabbage pies.
— Since 2022, we decided to “sweeten” the lives of our students and moved away from the “cabbage” theme. In 2022, 2023 and 2024, we ate pies with apple, cherry and raspberry fillings, respectively. The topics of our meetings also changed. This year, the anniversary year, we ate delicious pies with lemon filling, as it was decided to organize Lime
The cabbage party, or “lemonnik”, turned out to be spectacular and even “fairy-tale”, as some of the participants said. This year there was a record number of student performers, namely: more than 160 people from 14 academic groups of the 1st, 2nd and 3rd years. 11 theatrical numbers were presented and 9 films were made.
— I remember a bright twist — students of group 24702.2 danced from the heart. The song Wonderful World by group 23703.2 sounded unexpectedly and very beautifully. Students of groups 24707.1 and 2 brought their instruments: the song With a Little Help From My Friends with an original video was performed to the accompaniment of a synthesizer, electric guitar and bass. There was a musical, sketches, songs and dances from students of groups 23704.3, 24710.2, 23704.1, 24701. 1 and 24701.2. The title Lemon Tree sounded in two interpretations: lyrically with a guitar (24706.1) and interactively, involving the entire audience in an active game (23702.1). Two more groups played games with the audience: 22705 (the entire audience helped Alice and her friends get back to Wonderland) and 24703 (solving associative series, topic – NSU), shared Svetlana Panova.
This year, all nine films won in their categories, including: Best Storyline (24704.1 and 24704.2); Best Actor: Best Spiderman Among Us (23706.1 and 23706.2); Warmest Tribute to Alma Mater (24709.2); Ultimate Movie Buff Award (23701.1); Best Soundtrack with Original Lyrics (24704.2), the lines from which are sung by half the faculty. It was possible to watch the films in advance and leave your vote by following the link to the desired group, and at the skit they watched the most popular, memorable works again, meeting the requirements for sound quality and duration.
— Special words of admiration and gratitude — to our hosts! For the second year, Ksenia Polischuk, Arina Takmakova and Yulia Kostyleva, all students of group 22707.1, were at the helm. They were assisted by Alena Brutyan (23705) and Semyon Kovalenko (22708). These are unique hosts, reacting live to everything that happens in the hall, dancing, singing, playing different instruments, raising the whole hall to sing songs in English in chorus, because they know the right songs! They made an invaluable contribution to the preparation and holding of two skits in a row and raised the bar for those who would come after them. And of course, not a single skit would have happened without our wonderful English teachers! They not only help their students, but, traditionally, they open and close each skit with their performances. On April 9, our hit, written back in 2016, was performed with the refrain Welcome to the new, brand new NSU, supplemented with words specifically about the anniversary 10th cabbage party, noted Svetlana Panova.
The awarding of winners in the oral Olympiad and written translation competition, a lottery with prizes from sponsors, gifts and souvenirs – all these integral attributes of the skits became possible thanks to the support of the faculty. The holiday ended with a pie with candles, balloons, the lines Happy Birthday to you! and the final song It’s Not a Final Countdown.
The cabbage party was a success! See you next year!
