Events Description
An epic, music-charged bromance featuring the music of Juno-nominee Ahmed Moneka and his Arabic-jazz band
Two years after selling out its Canadian premiere, King Gilgamesh (and the Man of the Wild) returns to the Soulpepper stage for a limited, three-week engagement.
This moving, funny, and raucous Dora-winning production weaves together a modern Toronto bromance with the world’s oldest epic.
Created and performed by Ahmed Moneka and Jesse LaVercombe alongside Ahmed’s 2025-Juno-nominated Arabic jazz band and directed by acclaimed NYC / Chicago-based director Seth Bockley, this show has sold out runs and received critical praise in Minneapolis, Halifax, Chicago and NYC.
