The scene takes place in a quaint village with a simple home and a grassy field. There is a central area where most of the dialogue and action take place, with a small area for the Wise Man's house.
Scene 1: The Village
(The stage is set with a backdrop of a small village with a few simple props: a house, a well, and some trees. Children play in the background. Little Alex and his parents are at the center of the stage.)
Narrator: (Stepping forward) Welcome to a peaceful village where everyone lived in harmony. Little Alex is about to learn a very important lesson about guilt and forgiveness.
Little Alex: (Running to his parents) Mom! Dad! I accidentally broke the window with my ball!
Mother: (Concerned) Oh no, Alex! That’s not good. You must have been very careless.
Father: (Sighing) We’ll have to find a way to fix it. But you know what this means, don’t you? You have to be more careful next time.
Little Alex: (Looking sad) I’m really sorry. I didn’t mean to do it.
Mother: (Softening) We know you didn’t mean to. But you still need to be responsible.
Father: (Nodding) Yes, accidents happen, but it’s important to learn from them.
Narrator: Little Alex felt very sad and guilty. He wished he could make things right. But he didn’t understand why such things had to happen.
Scene 2: The Wise Man’s House
(Alex walks to the Wise Man’s house. The Wise Man, an old man with a kind face, is sitting outside, reading a book.)
Little Alex: (Approaching nervously) Excuse me, Wise Man, I broke a window by accident. My parents say I need to be responsible. But I feel really bad. Is it my fault?
Old Wise Man: (Smiling gently) Ah, come and sit with me, young Alex. Let me tell you a story.
Narrator: The Wise Man began to tell Alex a story about a village long ago.

"위대한 교훈"
레프 톨스토이의 '죄인은 없다'를 각색한 작품
캐릭터:
내레이터
꼬마 알렉스(호기심 많은 아이)
어머니
아버지
늙은 현자
마을의 아이들(여러 배우가 연기 가능)
환경:
이 장면은 소박한 집과 잔디밭이 있는 고풍스러운 마을에서 진행됩니다. 대부분의 대화와 행동이 이루어지는 중앙 영역이 있고, 현자의 집을 위한 작은 영역이 있습니다.
장면 1: 마을
(무대는 집, 우물, 나무 등 몇 가지 간단한 소품이 있는 작은 마을을 배경으로 설정되었습니다. 배경에서 아이들이 놀고 있습니다. 어린 알렉스와 그의 부모가 무대 중앙에 있습니다.)
해설자: (앞으로 나서며) 모두가 조화롭게 살아가는 평화로운 마을에 오신 것을 환영합니다. 꼬마 알렉스는 이제 죄책감과 용서에 관한 매우 중요한 교훈을 배우게 됩니다.
꼬마 알렉스: (부모님께 달려가며) 엄마! 아빠! 실수로 공으로 창문을 깨뜨렸어요!
어머니: (걱정하며) 아 안돼, 알렉스! 그건 좋지 않아요. 당신은 매우 부주의했을 것입니다.
아버지: (한숨) 우리가 고칠 방법을 찾아야겠습니다. 하지만 이게 무슨 뜻인지는 아시죠? 다음에는 더 조심해야 합니다.
꼬마 알렉스: (슬픈 표정으로) 정말 미안해요. 나는 그것을 할 생각이 없었습니다.
어머니: (부드러운 목소리로) 당신이 그럴 의도가 아니었다는 걸 알아요. 하지만 여전히 책임을 져야 합니다.
아버지: (고개 끄덕이며) 네, 사고는 일어나죠. 하지만 그걸 통해 배우는 게 중요해요.
해설자: 꼬마 알렉스는 매우 슬프고 죄책감을 느꼈습니다. 그는 일을 바로잡을 수 있기를 바랐습니다. 하지만 그는 왜 그런 일이 일어나야 하는지 이해하지 못했습니다.
장면 2: 현자의 집
(알렉스는 현자의 집으로 걸어간다. 친절한 얼굴의 노인인 현자는 밖에 앉아 책을 읽고 있다.)
꼬마 알렉스: (초조하게 다가가며) 실례합니다, 현자님, 제가 실수로 창문을 깨뜨렸어요. 부모님은 내가 책임을 져야 한다고 말씀하신다. 하지만 기분이 정말 안 좋아요. 내 잘못인가요?
현자 늙은이: (부드럽게 웃으며) 아, 이리 와서 내 옆에 앉으세요, 알렉스. 이야기를 하나 들려드리겠습니다.
해설자: 현자는 오래 전에 알렉스에게 한 마을에 대한 이야기를 들려주기 시작했습니다.


Scene 3: The Story
(The stage transforms to a different setting with villagers dressed in simple costumes, resembling a historical village. The Wise Man narrates while the villagers act out the story.)
Old Wise Man: (Narrating) Long ago, in a faraway land, there was a village where people lived in peace. But one day, a big storm came, and it caused a lot of damage.
(Villagers pretend to be working, fixing roofs, and cleaning up. One villager accidentally breaks a pot.)
Villager 1: Oh no! I broke the pot!
Villager 2: (Upset) That was a very special pot. Now we have to find a way to replace it.
Old Wise Man: (Narrating) The villagers gathered to discuss who was at fault. But the wise elder of the village said, “It is not about finding fault. We must help each other fix what’s broken.”
(The villagers come together and work to fix the broken pot, helping one another.)
Old Wise Man: (Narrating) They realized that blaming each other only made things harder. When they worked together, they found a way to solve their problems.
Scene 4: Back at the Wise Man’s House
(The stage returns to the Wise Man’s house. Little Alex looks thoughtful.)
Little Alex: So, it’s not about who is guilty, but about how we can fix things and help each other?
Old Wise Man: Exactly, Alex. Everyone makes mistakes. What matters is how we handle them and support one another. There is no need for guilt, only understanding and learning.
Little Alex: (Smiling) I understand now. I’ll try to fix the window with my parents and be more careful next time.
Old Wise Man: That’s the spirit. Remember, helping and understanding are what make us grow.
