Dear Luna,
I noticed the sun rose about five hours earlier than it should have today. Every creature over at Mount Aris was fully thrown off by the surprise sunrise, including me, because now I only have less than an hour to practice for the weekly screeching competition.
I will keep this query brief: what happened in Equestria, sister? I need a good answer, and I need it ASAP.
Worried and Short on Time,
Celestia

Dear Celestia,
If you’re looking for a reason why the sun was raised early, I have one.
Except it’s not good. At all. It’s so bad, it could only happen because of Sunny’s best shot at improvisation for an improvised play in celebration of a “onesversary” personal accomplishment that I swear sounds like that was made up right on the spot! I didn’t even know this was a thing until Rainbow Dash told me about it, and I’ll bet you don’t know a thing about what this is either.
Basically, it was to celebrate your 1111th anniversary of your very first raising of the sun. That’s it. It’s just happening because of a once-in-a-lifetime string of 1’s in the year that the Pink One kept track of, because of course she did.
And what kind of play do you get for such an occasion? A revisit to the first time you raised the sun long ago, delivered in less than five lines, not counting the time spent by Spike dealing with hecklers. Yes, there were hecklers. Yes, I am happy you were not here for that.
Sadly, I know very little about the backstage workings of the play, but there were multiple explosions at one point, followed by a big bang. I think whatever that was, or whatever was destroyed by the explosion, should have been the fake sun as opposed to the real one lifted for the play. You know, the one raised by Sunny and cut off my night by five hours, all just to make an incredibly short play an incredibly large success. I have simultaneously never been so frustrated in the pony populace and angered at the misuse of a celestial object as a stage prop, especially when I’m the one that said that’s a terrible idea for the Friendship Festival!
In case you can’t tell, I am miffed over this entire situation. I can’t even insist on having another play done for me because of a certain thousand-year banishment locking me out of that! Even a 111th anniversary pales in comparison, and what kind of story am I going to get?! My first moonrise? The first time I learned to dreamwalk? I DEMAND BALANCE, sister!
Which I will get, one way or another.
Respectfully Annoyed by Everything Right Now,
Luna
P.S. By the way, Sunny wanted to send you an apology letter covered in glue and sparkly glitter. She neither understands nor cares about the finite limits of both, and it turned into this massive shiny glue glob with a letter of apology buried somewhere inside.
Have fun with that!

Dear Luna,
Good news, dear sister. I no longer need to practice.
The screeching will come naturally. You’re going to hear it. This, I guarantee.
Don’t Forget Your Earplugs,
Celestia

Ah, so Sunny's behind it.
It is definitely odd that Celestia would use her Sun for such a mundane purpose after refusing to do so for the Friendship Festival. I can only imagine the reactions from the nobility at seeing the Sun rise during the night. They probably thought Discord was at it again.
Regardless, I refuse to accept this explanation as canon, for the simple reason that Celestia prancing around the throne room is too adorable for words and I love that she did that.
Sunny being in the play does explain how terrible Celestia was. Even considering acting in politics and theater are different Celestia or actually Sunny performed horribly bad.
This would ABSOLUTELY make sense in this Alt-U. The only complaint I have is that Luna referred to her sister with her title. I kind of doubt that would happen.
Just a nitpick, though. You can ignore me.
I was wondering how you'd handle this one. Somehow, blaming Sunny mever occurred to me. Brilliant route to take, though it does make some of the more heartfelt scenes feel a bit odd, especially when contrasted with the sparkly sorry blob. Still, most entertaining.

On the one hand, without consideration for my story, this episode was a joy to watch from start to finish.
The second I thought about the story, my head was filled with internal screaming for about ten hours before I realized I had an out that made any kind of sense. But this gave me a thought to consider:
Maybe Sunny’s finally starting to mature a bit.
A miniscule bit, but a bit nonetheless.
So I guess Sunny was the one who did the Royal Canterlot Voice as well? I guess all of that time spending with the royal sisters paid off.
"IT IS TIME FOR A NEW DAY IN EQUESTRIA!"

Definitely the bets episode of the season so far, in my opinion; I've found all the priors to be very middle of the raod (relative to pony standard).
Personally, I am convinced that Celestia was, in fact, trolling though the majority of it, and the rest of it suffering badly from the fact she's been projecting the image of - and being - "flawless teacher who ensures everyone solves their own problems" for so long, she keeps subconsiously twisting her own minor issues she could easily solve herself into something like a friendship lesson for other people to "fix." (And that basically nothing she does is likely more complicated than it seems, even if it is somethng she's not aware of.)
But that, for me, just made it so much funnier.
Over in here of course, that being Sunny just makes SO MUCH sense!
I thought it all started with a big bang?
