Russian Children’s Theater

The best way to keep the heritage language of a minority group is to make kids to use it, and theater is one of the best solutions of this problem.

That is why we have created a Children’s Theater Studio where kids of various ages work on a performance together.

And this is the table of contents of issue 21-22.

One more reason for the title

Another reason for title is that the number of people who want their kids to keep the language is very small, that’s why we are a very small company indeed.

The magazine is a printed edition, not an online publication, but we do have a website where you can get more info about the magazine, see the covers and tables of contents of the published issues and subscribe or purchase the magazine. Please visit our site http://detskiyzhurnal.org/

Hello world!

Welcome to the blog of Alla Markova, founder and editor of the Malenkaya Kompaniya.

Malenkaya Kompaniya (ISSN 1933-6020) is a literary magazine for Russian-speaking children and their families living in the USA. The title of the magazine comes from a song by Yunna Moritz,

“Our tiny company has a huge secret – we want to have somebody to speak with”,

in our case, we mean we want to speak with our own children. And we want to speak with them in our native language – Russian, we want them to speak, read and write in Russian – and enjoy it, only then it can be a mutually interesting conversation and understanding of each other.
