It is through the portal we are traveling across the World Wide Web and exchange our thoughts with people in every corner of the planet.
And it is through the portal that we all hope to step into another fantasy worlds, time travel into the distant past, see distant galaxies, visit an incredible future, or jump into a parallel universe. Everyone has at least once dreamed of jumping down a rabbit hole or through a mysterious portal into a dream world.
The theatrical portal allows the author to talk to the viewer show him the world of his own dreams or expose the naked truth of the existing world.
Sends everyone through this portal to the most distant galaxy – the galaxy of the inner world of every viewer and everyone author of every person on the planet. A theatrical portal allows you to see into the thoughts of another person, travel through the galaxy of another, and get to know yourself.
