Great News! Coronation Street’s longest serving actor, William Roache (Ken Barlow) will be coming to Canada in March next year. Blighty’s Corrie Fan Newsletter was contacted by the organizers, Stroll Promotions, late last night with this fabulous news.
Bill will tour Canada from the east coast to the west coast with several stops in between. Some details are not yet finalized but the list of cities on the tour will be:
Halifax, Ottawa, Toronto, Hamilton, Vancouver and Victoria
The tour is billed as follows:
Coronation St. Icon William Roache will be touring across Canada with his unique one-man show in March 2012 and will share stories of his life from the world’s most successful soap. William Roache has played ‘Ken Barlow on, Coronation Street for a record breaking 50+ years.
The format will be different from the 2011 “Audience with the Croppers” in that William Roache has his own roadshow. The first part of the show will be a presentation from the star, followed by a second part during which guests are invited to ask questions and take pictures.

Very exciting news for Corrie fans. What an opportunity to see and hear stories from a Corrie legend!
Where and When is he coming to Ottawa?????
I am interested to find out where the Toronto location will be. Does anyone know?
Wah!! We live in Red Deer, Alberta, why isn’t he stopping in Calgary or Edmonton?
Yay, I hope I can make it. Can’t wait to find out the date he’ll be in Toronto.
Thanks for letting us know!

Fantastic! I was really hoping that with “The Croppers” success last year, that they would bring another great cast member again. I hope we get information soon about any shows going in the Ottawa area!
I hope a date for Ottawa is announced soon. I want to get a ticket to this one.
