Why See The Events?

David Greig's internationally acclaimed play

First premiering in 2013 at the Edinburgh Fringe Festival, award-winning Scottish playwright David Greig's The Events comes to the Guthrie Theatre. The play follows an unnamed community in search for compassion, peace and forgiveness following an act of unspeakable violence, which saw their choir gunned down in cold blood during rehearsals. A response to the 2011 Norway terrorist attacks, this critically acclaimed production delves into faith, politics and forgiveness, and features music sung by a different community choir at each performance, making each staging a truly unique experience.

Only two actors inhabit the stage; one playing Claire, the parish priest who witnessed the atrocity, and seeks to find out everything about the gunman, even interviewing his family, right-wing organizations and the man himself. The other actor plays everybody else, including the gunman, where the play culminates in a tense meeting.
