*****“Creative light and sound…transform the intimate fringe theatre into a lecture hall convincingly possessed by the angry spirits of the dead.” - The Reviews Hub
“If the performance was triumphant, I can't find the words to describe the design and innovation used…The atmosphere was exhilarating.” - As Scene with Eithne
“We get flickering lights, creepy sounds and talk of horrific past events…as things get wonderfully creepy” - Everything Theatre
Set in a lecture hall, Bog Body follows forensic anthropologist Dr. Alyssa Kim as she unveils the discovery of a 2,000-year-old murder victim preserved in the peat. What begins as an academic presentation spirals into a harrowing confrontation with ancient curses, feminist history, and the scars we inherit across generations. Both chilling and thought-provoking, it’s a story of trauma, survival, and the haunting weight of the past.
