Description
The brain is self-sufficient: it does not matter for him whether he is dealing with a real event, with a memory of it or with a hallucination. And therefore, our dependence on the brain is much stronger than we used to think ...

The Theatre of Imagination shows imaginary performances of real theatrical directors from the point of view of the audience sitting in the auditorium. We ventured to take on the role of the first imaginary viewer and invite you to join. We are sure that each of you will be able to see your own performance since we all know how to think out the unsaid and finish in our own imagination the unfinished.
You will surely like the performance that you imagine (you are its co-author!). Well, if you don’t like it, then you should blame yourself.
Attention! The administration of the Theatre of Imagination relieves itself of responsibility for the imaginary obscenities, scenes of violence, and other unlawful things (in our imagination there is nothing like this), including the complete inability to imagine anything on stage.
How it happens: the audience sits in the auditorium and looks at the screen. The music starts. It can be recorded or live music. The description of the performance is projecting to the screen. The audience reads the description and imagines the performance. Usually, we play 3-4 performances during the evening, each is around 15 minutes, accompanied by the entertainer. The performance can be shown on any language. We can also make a special performance of the Theatre of Imagination for any event.
