Legal Suits Settled In Soulpepper Theatre Co-Founder Harassment

Four actresses sued Albert Schultz and Soulpepper in January, alleging he groped them, exposed himself, pressed against them or otherwise behaved inappropriately. Schultz resigned hours after Kristin Booth, Hannah Miller, Diana Bentley and Patricia Fagan held a news conference to lambaste him and Soulpepper. A lawyer representing the four woman also confirmed Wednesday that the “matters have settled.” They added that they have no further comment. The woman have said previously that the company’s failure to deal with their repeated complaints about Schultz had prompted them to go public.
