In 1981 at Kibeho College in Rwanda, a young girl claimed to have seen a vision of the Virgin Mary who warned her of the unimaginable: Rwanda becoming hell on earth. She was ignored by her friends and scolded by her school but then another student saw the vision, and another, and the impossible appeared to be true.

Katori Hall’s Our Lady Of Kibeho presents us with a haunting insight into these true events that captured the world’s attention. A vibrantly theatrical meditation on faith and everyday miracles, it reunites Royal & Derngate’s Artistic Director James Dacre with Katori Hall, following their collaboration on The Mountaintop which won the Olivier Award for Best New Play in 2010. 

Featuring stirring original music sung live by an exceptional ensemble cast, the London premiere of Our Lady Of Kibeho promises to be an epic event.

Moving, distraught and believable. Thank you for the very compelling show! Hope it meant as much to you as it did for me. What does it mean to believe?

The seats aren’t comfortable it’s unfortunate

Frances

What a beautiful production. So funny in parts, but searingly sad in others. This play deserves a West End run.

James M Koshland

Great play. Seats were a little cramped

Ali Ben-hariz

Nayo Ruddock

Very engaging production, powerful acting and great humour!

Miss Boulton Roe

This was an excellent piece of theatre. The set was beautiful, the music and live singing really ramped up the emotion and the acting was superb. Funny, touching, engrossing and beautiful. See this show!

JOHN SINGLETON

The play was intriguing, challenging, funny (in places) and left you thinking. Well worth seeing.

Kapsa Fohtung

Great performance. Thank you.

JANET G

Whether you are a Christian, a Catholic, a 'believer' or 'non-believer', this production has a very poignant message and a story that cannot be ignored. Very beautifully delivered with some light-hearted touches. A very enjoyable performance

Priscilla Shote

It was great and so relatable being a catholic that loves Mama Mary.
