Bryony Kimmings brings Bog Witch to Storyhouse Chester this July
Bryony Kimmings will bring her new live show Bog Witch to Storyhouse in Chester on 29 and 30 July, as part of her biggest UK and Ireland tour to date.
The show follows a London run and a 2026 OffWestEnd nomination for innovation.
Bog Witch is an autobiographical piece in which Kimmings charts her decision to uproot her life and her son’s to live in a tumbledown cottage in the wilderness.
Bryony said: “Bog Witch is about being the least likely eco-convert. The last person to let go of their capitalist trappings. It explores what happens when ordering things online, drinking from plastic coffee cups and stuffing my face with Deliveroo no longer brings happiness.”
“Beneath all the bought stuff and façade, the endless distraction and dopamine, we find we are sad animals. Animals who have 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.”
Bryony is a playwright, performer, documentary maker and screenwriter. Her stage work includes Sex Idiot, Fake It ’til you Make It and I’m a Phoenix, Bitch.
She co-wrote the 2019 film Last Christmas with Emma Thompson. A new BBC One psychological thriller, The Rapture, adapted from the Liz Jensen novel and starring Ruth Madeley, is due for broadcast in 2026.
Bog Witch is written, performed and directed by Bryony, with co-direction from Francesca Murray-Fuentes.
Tickets start from £30.30 for Storyhouse Members. The full pricing and booking details are available on the Storyhouse website.
