What you must decide 
Should Nick and Ann have a lavish wedding reception or make it a more modest affair 
and spend the money otherwise? 
Role cards 
Nick Petrov Aged 22
You are an out-of-door type of young man and think that the only thing worth 
spending money on is travelling. You find Ann very fussy about clothes, restaurant, 
guests. You love Ann very much but you want to be firm and persuade her to go to St. 
Petersburg. It's your birthplace and you can show her a lot in this beautiful city, or can 
just as well get a package tour. 
Ann Semenova Aged 20
You love Nick very much and think you are lucky to have such a husband. But you 
are the sort of girl who likes to keep up with the Joneses
1
.
Your mother promised to foot 
the bill, that's why you think nothing of spending a lot of money.
You are so excited that you can hardly listen to what Nick is suggesting. But finally the 
idea of spending a month in St. Petersburg together with Nick seems romantic to you.

Tom/Dorothy Walter Aged 22
You are an English student and it's your first year in Russia. You are enjoying your 
stay in Moscow and are interested in learning more about the Russian people and their 
way of life. You can hardly wait to see the wedding and the reception as you have heard a 
lot about Russian parties. You ask all sorts of questions concerning the conditions of life 
of newly-wed couples. (How they budget, where they live, how they manage their 
studies.)
Irene Nosova Aged 22
You are a student and have been married for 2 years already. You remember your 
wedding very well. You and your husband were very short of money and there was no 
money coming from home at that time. All the students gathered in the dining-room to 
congratulate you and when the party was coming to its close they gave you two tickets to 
Tallinn as a present. How einjoyable your trip was! What you don't understand is why 
Ann is going to invite so many people she and Nick hardly know at all. 
Helen Bobrova Aged 18
You are Ann's roommate and a friend of hers but you are a poor mixer and have no 
boy-friend. You look forward to the wedding reception no matter where it is going to be 
held, as you are sure there will be lots of young boys there and who knows... As for the 
money problems you suggest a simple way out — a party in the Halls of Residence.
