The man on the edge of the abyss, exhausted by remorse, escaped from the "glass menagerie", but not got rid of its inhabitants. A poet who administers his terrible judgment not only over his verses, but also over his whole life.

Tom is trying to free himself from thoughts and memories of the family. They constantly torment him: they pierce like knives. The hero thinks painfully about a mother whose life was broken by the mistakes of her youth. He recalls a sister who suffers from complexes and depression. In the soul of Tom, a sense of responsibility for loved ones and acute hatred clash.

In this mystical thriller, the spectator will follow the hero through the darkest corners of his soul in search of forgiveness.

“The Theater Who Is Not” has its history since April 24, 2011 - the day of the premiere of the play The Glass Menagerie based on the play by Tennessee Williams. The name of the theater, strange at first glance, originally born as a theatrical joke, a kind of cultural oxymoron, today surprisingly accurately and succinctly reflects the creative credo and the form of existence of the theater project created by actress and director Anna Pukhova and her associates. This is a theater that cannot exist without creatively bold and free people creating the theater here, which for one reason or another cannot be occupied in the space of the official repertoire theater. At the same time, it is a theater that cannot exist and cannot exist without a spectator who is creatively sympathetic and participating. The performances of the “Theater of Which There Is No” are united by themes that lead away in the field of dreams and fantasies, games, something unreal, intangible.

Over the five years of its existence, the theater has toured in St. Petersburg, Kharkov, Hamburg, Berlin, participated and became the laureate of several festivals of independent theaters.
