Lynn Valley Voices is pleased to be the performing in Pi Theatre's production of The Events by David Grieg and music by John Browne on Opening Night at the PuSH International Performing Arts Festival - Thursday, January 18th 2018 @ 8PM.

The Events is an incendiary exploration of a tragic contemporary phenomenon. The play features Claire, a priest and choir leader who has survived a mass shooting. Shattered and bereft, she looks for answers that may lead to some kind of affirmation of hope and faith. In this soul-searching work, the presence of the choir represents the most beautiful aspects of our shared humanity.

Pi draws on community choirs from the Metro Vancouver area for participation; each performance, a different choral group shares the stage with the show’s two actors. This work of art about a community torn apart is an act of community engagement, prompting discussion as well as catharsis. In its compassion, its inclusivity and its spirit of inquiry, The Events is an act of resistance—an act of love.

“The Events pulls off the trick of being both chilling and immensely warm-hearted” – Sunday Times
