Annotation:
The article substantiates the phenomena of "communion theater" and "total
theater", which influenced the development of Russian philosophy of the 20th century.
The research has revealed that the category of “communion theater” would open a new
vector for Russian philosophy, elevating theater to the rank of metaphysics. The communion theater will become the mystical embodiment of the views of the Silver Age
thinkers. We considered the threefold structure of theatrical action: catharsis, mimesis,
and a system of masks, which the intelligentsia will borrow for performances. Many performances under this system will be staged in the leading theaters of the capital. And the
views of Vyacheslav Ivanov will set the foundation for theurgy and aesthetics of the Silver Age. The created figure of theurgist transforms society's ideas about the creator, who
has power over the world's creative processes. Such views will open a new era in personalistic ethics
