“A journey as unexpected and essential as it’s hilarious and heartfelt…a delight, albeit one that comes with jagged edges, a sting in the tail, and bracing theatrical invention…Kimmings is an authentic original.” –WhatsOnStage
In a last-ditch attempt to be happy and sane, Bryony uproots her life to go and live with her young son in a tumbledown cottage in the wilderness. A spellbinding play by an acclaimed artist renowned for her tearjerking and hilarious autobiographical theatre creations, Bryony Kimmings’s play Bog Witch is about being the least likely eco-convert, the last person to let go of their capitalist trappings.
Bog Witch explores what happens when ordering things online, drinking booze and coffee, and stuffing your face with Deliveroo no longer brings happiness. Have we been disconnected from our ecosystems for too long? This is the story not of dropping out…but of plugging back in, and one that changes absolutely everything.
