ITCH
A darkly comic, visually striking solo play that exposes the raw power dynamics of a woman navigating misogyny, silencing, and survival in a male-dominated workplace.
Blending spoken text, movement, sound, and projection mapping, ITCH moves seamlessly between inner life and outer performance, transforming the stage into a living landscape of resistance, vulnerability, and transformation.
This is a story about resilience in the face of systemic power. It asks: what happens when the body refuses to stay silent?
For this UK production, projection mapping and animation become central to
the dramaturgy - a way of charting the protagonist’s emotional landscape and her transformation.
