Soulpepper's newest production, Waiting for the Parade, opened on May 5th to rave reviews. John Murrel's Canadian play about the lives and loves of five Canadian women on the home front during WWII has had many successful incarnations over the years, and the latest exploration from Soulpepper is proving to be no exception. Krystin Pellerin (of The Republic of Doyle) is one of the five women featured in the production, and she sat down to talk with BWW about her return to the stage and her role in the Soulpepper family.

Albert Schultz, Founding Artistic Director of Soulpepper Theatre Company, today announced that the company's production of Waiting for the Parade will run May 1 - May 29, 2010, at the Young Centre for the Performing Arts.
