SUMMARY:Marina Carr in Conversation with Lisa Dwan on Greek Drama\, B
 eckett\, and Adaptation
DESCRIPTION:Marina Carr’s By the Bog of Cats premiered on Dublin’s n
 ational stage\, the Abbey Theatre\, in 1998 to wide acclaim. B
 ased on Euripides’ Medea\, the play tells the story of Hest
 er Swane\, an outsider in her small rural community\, driven t
 o acts of vengeance and self-destruction. The play raises im
 portant questions about the status of outsiders\, the treatme
 nt of women and mothers\, and the roots of violence. In this 
 conversation\, Lisa Dwan and Marina Carr will discuss the sta
 kes in adaptations of the Classics\, Dwan and Carr’s shared
  Beckett influence\, as well as the role of women in theater 
 today.
