Bryony Kimmings has been creating and performing shows based closely on events in her own life since her award-winning Sex Idiot in 2010.

Her latest solo show, Bog Witch, about her difficult move from the city to the countryside and growing awareness of environmental issues, is currently on a tour of the UK and Ireland.

BTG Editor David Chadderton spoke to Bryony about the show, her creative process, how she began creating this type of theatre, the role of a dramaturg, her surprise at finding she was influenced by Brecht and doing audience participation the correct way.

Bog Witch has been performed so far at Soho Theatre in London, Attenborough Centre in Brighton and HOME Manchester.

From May to October 2026, it can be seen at Assembly Hall Theatre in Tunbridge Wells, Warwick Arts Centre in Coventry, Cambridge Junction, Bristol Old Vic, Connaught Theatre in Worthing, Swan Theatre in Worcester, Newbury Corn Exchange, Pavilion Theatre in Dún Laoghaire, Nottingham Playhouse, Chester Storyhouse, St George's Hall in Bradford, The Dukes in Lancaster, Sherman Theatre in Cardiff and Leeds Playhouse.
