The Events by David Greig, Sydney Festival and Belvoir St Theatre, Sydney 2016 (followed by multiple touring locations).

Luke was musical director for this confronting play based on the massacre on the island of Utoya in Norway by Anders Brevik in 2009.

The play transfers the action to a community choir in England, and every performance had a different community choir perform that part, which Luke would rehearse an hour before each show. It was a perfect alignment of his theatre and choir worlds and he worked with incredible choirs including The Choir of Love, a group of mostly Syrian and Iraqi refugees in SW Sydney.
