Ellie King

Ellie King

Ellie is honoured to be playing this seminal role which has been on her bucket list for a while. She has been knocking around the theatre scene in BC since the early 80s (yes, she is that old!), and is probably best known for her signature role of ‘Shirley Valentine’. She thanks RCTC, Kerri Norris and the cast, crew, her very patient husband and family and of course you, our audience, for allowing her this opportunity.

Wendy is absolutely over the moon to be back trodding the boards in her premiere production with the Royal Canadian Theatre Company. Most particularly thrilling to be working again with vexingly gifted director and fellow U of S alumnus, Kerri Norris.  Erstwhile performances with Shadows and Dreams Theatre Company and the Raymond Burr Performing Arts Society haunt her resume.
