Drawing on his family’s Holocaust history, his own experience of disability, and Rudolf Steiner’s Philosophy of Freedom, Iddo Oberski weaves a deeply personal journey with his onstage (puppet) counterpart, Svjetlana.

Iddo fuses storytelling, movement, puppetry, visual art, music, spoken word, magic and philosophy, exploring what it means to be human, and our ongoing search for freedom, connection and meaning.

The Scottish Storytelling Centre has level access to all spaces including the theatre. It is wheelchair friendly, with accessible toilets. Baby changing facilities are available within the ground floor accessible toilet. Assistance dogs are welcome.

Performances of Balancing in Freedom take place on 29 January, 15 March, 13 June and 20 November 2026. Prebooking required.
