“Bog Body” is an immersive and interactive performance about a forensic anthropologist studying a set of supposedly-haunted human remains found in an Irish bog. During a lecture presentation, she must confront a supernatural enemy and confront her own worst fears. Bog bodies are a real phenomenon: There have been hundreds of prehistoric bodies discovered in bogs across northern Europe, all perfectly preserved, dating back thousands of years.
“Bog Body is a quintessentially fringe production,” explains Olivia Cordell, creator and performer of Bog Body. “It’s intimate, interactive, unconventional, scrappy and versatile. And where do we test the waters with an immersive solo show in the horror genre? At the Fringe.”
Olivia Cordell (known as @theprincessliv) is a YouTuber, writer, producer, and social media influencer known for her horror-themed content.
