Margo Korableva Performance Theatre operates on the platform of relativistic synthetics efficiency. It takes items, deconstructs them apart and re-loads them as a brand new, redesigned content. The theater group applies the method of carnivalism and dialogism to achieve body and mind proximity, the interpenetration of action and text, sometimes using two opposite theater scenes at the same time or remains to work on the basis of rehearsals in the form of performances.
Since 2020, Margo Korableva Performance Theatre has been working on the basis of the Theatre and Film Georgia State University.
