| Admin History | The Itch toured from 10th June to 31st August 1999.
Description from Kneehigh flyer: "Beatrice Joanna has got an itch. In fact, she has several and she doesn't quite know how to scratch them. She's got a man she doesn't want, wants a man she can't have and, to top it all, loathes her servant with a passion. She embarks on a remedy of sex, lies and murder. 'The Itch' is about who we are, not who we want to be, and the possibility of love in the strangest and darkest of places."
Mike Shepherd's Kneehigh History describes the production as an adaptation of "The Changeling by Middleton and Rowley". Bill Mitchell is listed as set designer and Emma Rice as director. This was Rice's first production as director. Shepherd notes that the production was performed both at indoors and outdoors venues throughout the country.
