Toronto, ON - January 26, 2012: Albert Schultz, Founding Artistic Director of Soulpepper Theatre Company, today announced that Soulpepper's smash-hit season opener, Kim's Convenience, will return from May 17 to June 9, 2012.
Written by Ins Choi and loosely based on the prodigal son story, Kim's Convenience opened Soulpepper's 15th anniversary season earlier this month to rave reviews. The play depicts the journey of a fractured but loving Korean-Canadian family confronting the future and forgiving the past while deciding the fate of their Regent Park convenience store.
The entire ensemble returns: Clé Bennett, Ins Choi, Esther Jun, Paul Sun-Hyung Lee, and Jean Yoon.
The added performances of Kim's Convenience will run from May 17 to June 9 at the Young Centre for the Performing Arts, located at 55 Mill Street, Building 49, in the Distillery Historic District.
Tickets are on sale now and range from $22 -$68 (plus service charge) 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. StagePlay is sponsored by TD Bank Group.
