Eric Peterson seems determined to take his latest incarnation as Billy Bishop to new heights.

Officials at Soulpepper announced Tuesday that their acclaimed production of BILLY BISHOP GOES TO WAR, directed by Ted Dykstra and starring Peterson and collaborator John Gray in roles they made famous more than 30 years ago in the iconic Canadian stageplay, is about to hit the road.

It is slated to run Jan. 18 through 22, 2011, in Calgary, as part of the 25th annual High Performance Rodeo, a presentation of Theatre Calgary and One Yellow Rabbit, and in Montreal, at the Segal Centre for the Performing Arts, Feb. 13 through March 6.
