About

The modern scramble of haste, isolation, conflict, and the relentless pursuit of success often conceals a profound fear of death. This underlying terror is the core inspiration for Itch, a powerful stage production that fuses contemporary circus and theatre. Drawing from psychotherapist Irvin D. Yalom's Staring at the Sun: Overcoming the Terror of Death—a book that examines mortality through literature, philosophy, and his patients' lives—Itch offers a raw exploration of this fundamental human anxiety.

Catch Itch at Carnaval Sztukmistrzów, presented as part of Baltic Circus on the Road, a project coordinated by Rīgas Cirks (Latvia) and supported by the Baltic Culture Fund.
