Overview

A sensational theatrical event has been taking place in Moscow and St. Petersburg for the past year. Despite the multimillion-dollar ticket price and only one seat in the hall, there is no shortage of people who want to. Of course, because the unique format blurs the boundary between fiction and reality. You can be here, not appear. Here you can safely expose the problems of society and be inside society. Each performance is a piece―by-piece work created for a specific audience and thought out to the smallest detail by a whole team of screenwriters, psychologists and actors under the guidance of a talented director who has already staged 11 successful performances in a row.
