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 raucous Dora-winning production weaves together the world's oldest epic with a modern Toronto bromance between an American Jew and Iraqi Muslim… all scored by Ahmed Moneka’s 2025 Juno-nominated six-piece Arabic-jazz band. 
 
Created and performed by Ahmed Moneka and Jesse LaVercombe and directed by NYC-based Seth Bockley, this show has sold out runs and received critical praise here in Toronto, as well as Minneapolis, Halifax, Chicago and NYC.
