I would think that you're looking for a language based fully
on continuations; I seem to remember hearing about there being one,
but sadly do not recall the name.
I'd think that looking at functional languages like ML and
Haskell would be pretty worthwhile; having functions more-or-less
isomorphic to events seems fairly plausible...
