Soulpepper Theatre has announced its playbill for 2013. The roster includes some returning favourites like Alligator Pie, Kim's Convenience and Parfumerie, and new work – including an intriguing adaptation of The Barber of Seville, to be directed by Martha Ross. Two sets of linked plays will be produced over the summer and late fall, and they could hardly be more different in tone: Tony Kushner's deeply affecting Angels in America, and Alan Ayckbourn's lighthearted farcical trilogy The Norman Conquests.
