  William Poulin - Actor
  William Poulin appeared in recent
  episodes of network TV shows
  Flashpoint and The Listener.  He is
 
 looking forward to his first turn on a
  Fringe Festival stage.

  
  Mr. Poulin's acting credentials include
  roles across the whole gamut of 
modern and classical theatre.  He has played murderers and innocent men, rogues, knaves and fools, sinners and believers.  All of which is good preparation for the ambiguous role of John Matthews, who is either a murderer twice over or the victim of tunnel-vision policing and a media feeding frenzy.
 
                 
 
 

  David Hughes - Playwright
  Address to the Jury is Mr. Hughes'
  first play. His résumé includes the
  improbable combination of an MA in 
  English (thesis on Chaucer),
  apprenticeship as a violin-
  maker, international patents in
  laser-welding and wireless
  communications technologies and successive careers as a tax lawyer and co-founder and senior officer of public and private businesses.

"If this were the trial of one black man charged with killing another, it would lie buried in the back pages of the paper, behind recipes and amateur sporting events.  If I stood accused only of murdering my wife, the story might find its way to the middle of the front section on a slow day.  But the death of a young girl, a stabbing replete with Freudian symbology, ranks ahead of war, famine and pestilence as front-page news."
