Documental project "Two in your house" is an attempt to bring onto the stage, events that happened in Neklyaev's 4-room apartment where he lived with his wife and 2 KGB agents house arrested 24/7 for months.

What does it mean to be a prisoner in you own home? How does it feel to exist in your own home, your private room that you have built for your closest people, together with two strangers? What does one feel if his space is restricted? How will it change your relationship with your wife if it is all the time carefully watched by two security persons? How does it change a daily routine of the family? What happens to a family, if it has no private space?

Teatr.doc is an independent theatre from Moscow that was initiated by younger generation of playwrights and dramaturges in 2001. Their method of writing is verbatim - a method where writing plays is based on documents and interviews with an intention to create socially important theatre that speaks on actual subjects. Themes, that based on Teatr.doc are inviting and requesting artistic investigation.
