Susan Coyne

<Susan Coyne>

Susan Coyne is primarily a stage actor with a handful of film and television credits. She is also an author, playwright and screenwriter. For example, Susan adapted Chekhov's 'Three Sisters' for the Shaw Festival and following the publication in 2001 of her acclaimed childhood memoir, Kingfisher Days, Susan adapted the book for Toronto's Tarragon Theatre where it enjoyed a sold-out run. The Tarragon also produced her second play, 'Alice's Affair.' She starred in a return production of a challenging two-person play, Helen’s Necklace, also at the Tarragon and she not only appears in Slings and Arrows, but conceived the series and co-wrote many of the episodes. As an actor, she has played leading roles in theatres across Canada, including four seasons at the Stratford Festival where she met a later married Albert Schultz, the former Street Legal star. They trained as actors in the Stratford Festival’s Young Company in the late 1980s. In the late 1990s, both were involved in the founding of Toronto’s Soulpepper Theatre Company.
