Balancing in Freedom

About Balancing in Freedom

Listed Under Theatre Events

Balancing in Freedom is a journey through the landscape of personal story, searching for meaning, connection and expression.

In this unique blending of multiple art forms, Iddo Oberski takes us on a deeply personal exploration of his family’s Holocaust history, his own disability and Rudolf Steiner’s Philosophy of Freedom.

In regular dialogue with his larger-than-life collaborator Svjetlana, Iddo is shown gently how such diverse and challenging experiences may never be fully understood. They shape us and through creating art we may come closer to making some sense of ourselves, human life and the world we live in.

Join us for this world premiere performance of an enthralling new work. Written and performed by Iddo Oberski with Creative Mentoring from Mark Kydd.
