This is how the "Timeline" was born - a street space wrapping around the courtyard, created in collaboration with the city's creative community. Guests are invited to walk through five thematic zones reflecting the key eras of human history: from the primitive world to antiquity, from medieval romanticism to modern times. The final point of the route is the timeless book courtyard - a place for silence, relaxation and leisurely reading.

Each production here is a step away from the usual, an attempt to find new forms and ask important questions. Spectators note that the performances of "23" do not just entertain, but make you think, rethink the familiar and look deeper.
