Itamar Travels Along the Walls — from the Creator of Kaspion — HaShahor Theater

Based on a book by David Grossman

Playwright: Ayala Kurkos
Director: Avi Malka
Nadneda Theatre in collaboration with Tetrון ha-Shahor.

A performance combining innovative digital art with a unique creative approach. An immersion into a multisensory world with video art that will take young viewers (and adults) on an amazing journey through the realms of fantasy and imagination.

Three pictures hang in Itamar’s room: a colorful train, a girl with a kite, and a forest where a pair of lions lives. Itamar often asks many questions without understanding, but one of them especially troubles him: Why are the lion and lioness so sad?

Putting off sleep again and again, he keeps his father awake until he ends up in bed with his favorite toys—a teddy bear and a little monkey. But as soon as Itamar closes his eyes, he sets off on a journey across the walls of his room, entering the pictures to find answers to his questions.

This performance shows a child’s strength in overcoming fears and finding solutions through the world of fantasy and freedom of thought, unrestricted by boundaries and rules.
