Albert Schultz, Founding Artistic Director of Soulpepper Theatre Company, today announced that the company's production of Sharon Pollock's Doc will run August 19 - September 18, 2010, at the Young Centre for the Performing Arts.
Winner of both the Chalmers Canadian Play Award and the Governor General's Award for drama, Doc is a powerful and very personal play by one Canada's most celebrated playwrights, Sharon Pollock.

Doc previews August 19, 2010, opens August 26, and runs until September 18, 2010 at the Young Centre for the Performing Arts, located at 55 Mill Street, Building 49, in the Distillery Historic District. Tickets range from $31.20 - $75.33 (including 13% HST) and are available by calling the Young Centre box office at 416.866.8666 or by visiting soulpepper.ca. $22 tickets are available for 21-30 year-olds at stageplay.ca.
