by Marina Carr

By the Bog of Cats is a furious, uncompromising tale of greed, betrayal, murder, and profound self-sacrifice. Loosely based on Euripides’ tragedy Medea and set on the bleak, ghostly Irish landscape of the Bog of Cats, this provocative drama discloses one woman’s courageous attempts to lay claim to that which is hers—as her world is torn in two. This area premiere is directed by Gina Handy Minyard (artistic director, Magnolia Theatre Company).
