Acclaimed Scottish playwright David Greig's The Events follows one survivor's search for compassion, peace and understanding in the wake of unthinkable violence.

Delving into religion, faith, politics and reason, Ramin Gray's theatrically inventive production features a soaring soundtrack and a different choir at each performance.

The Events was the hit of the Edinburgh Festival Fringe, where it garnered five-star reviews, along with a Fringe First and the Carol Tambor Best of Edinburgh Award.
