Description

Set in the mysterious landscape of the bogs of rural Ireland, Carr's lyrical and timeless play tells the story of Hester Swane, an Irish traveller with a deep and unearthly connection to her land.

Tormented by the memory of a mother who deserted her, Hester is once again betrayed, this time by the father of her child, the man she loves.

On the brink of despair, she embarks on a terrible journey of vengeance as the secrets of her tangled history are revealed. 'A piece of poetic realism steeped in the past . . . Carr has an extraordinary ability to move between the mythic and the real.' Guardian'A great play . . . a great work of poetry.' IndependentBy the Bog of Cats premiered at the Abbey Theatre, Dublin, in 1998.

It was revived at Wyndham's Theatre, London, in November 2004.
