Jennifer Spence, Vancouver's own, is currently shooting “Continuum,” a one-hour drama-action series from Shaw Media about a policewoman from 2077 who travels back in time and teams up with a present day cop to track down escaped convicts from her future. Jennifer plays the recurring role of Betty Robertson, a cop and IT specialist. The series features an impressive cast, with stars including Rachel Nichols (Criminal Minds, Alias), Victor Webster (Castle, Melrose Place) and director Jon Cassar (24, The Kennedys) at the helm.
 
 Continuum is set to air on Showcase in the late spring.

Diverse performer Erick Kaffka continues to rise above any obstacles in his way to live out his dream of performing. His latest role is in an upcoming episode of “Untold stories of the ER” on March 14th on the Discovery Health channel. Erick plays a soldier wounded in Iraq who has lost his legs, a role that hits close to home for the talented actor.
 
In 1999, Erick was involved in a tragic accident that resulted in him becoming a double leg amputee. With a positive attitude, and a new outlook on life, Erick continued acting and developed a niche using his new skills with a wheelchair and prosthetics. He is still able to do "walking" roles so Erick’s acting horizons have broadened to include military and specialized amputee roles.

Fresh off wrapping a project with Hollywood A-listers Stanley Tucci and Shia LaBeouf in the Robert Redford directed feature film, The Company You Keep, Vancouver's Marsha Regis is turning her attention to the stage production of "Intimate Apparel".

The captivating actress will be appearing in the lead role of the play, which can be caught at The Arts Club Theatre on Granville Island. Regis plays Mayme, a prostitute in 1905 Manhattan. Mayme is one of her favourite characters to play to-date.

“It's so easy to dismiss her as a tart from the Tenderloin," said Regis of her character.

"Instead, what we find out is that she has hopes and dreams and wants to be loved, just like everyone else."  

Set in the 1940s, “Bomb Girls” tells the story of  women who risked their lives in a munitions factory building bombs for the Allied forces fighting on the European front. The series delves into the lives of women from all walks of life – peers, friends and rivals – who find themselves thrust into new worlds and changed profoundly as they are liberated from their home and social restrictions. Liebert plays Betty, athe fast-talking girl from the Prairies responsible for training the bomb girls.
