Playing from Wednesday, 31st January to Saturday, 3rd February in St.Eoghan`s, Centre, Kilmoganny at 8.15pm nightly.
Loosely based on Euripedes tragedy Medea, this is the prophetic tale of Hester Swane,
an Irish Traveller, who attempts to come to terms with a lifetime of abandonment in a world where all whom she loved have discarded her. Set in the bleak, ghostly landscape of the Bog Of Cats, this provocative drama tells of one woman’s courageous attempt to lay claim to that which is hers as her world is torn in two.
The Bog of Cats contains many mystical and mythical elements including ghosts, curses, references to witchcraft and ethnic prejudice.
