`BOG’ IS COMPELLING IN SOUND AND SCOPE
“The Cape Rep Theatre is an ideal place to stage the East Coast premiere of Marina Carr’s new play, “By the Bog of Cats.” Built on a misty patch of Cape Cod’s Nickerson State Park, this remote theater has an atmosphere of marshy solitude that conjures up the midlands of Ireland, the setting of the play.” – Ryan McKittrick, Boston Globe
