Such a wonderful production - so happy to have had the opportunity to be on the show as Inge Bohl in Rhapsody in Blood - ant yes vit a German accent 🥰

A new report from the Canadian Media Producers Association (CMPA) and Shaftesbury shines a light on what performers have long known: Canadian-made IP drives real economic value.

The report shows that global hit MURDOCH MYSTERIES has generated over $1 billion in economic output in Ontario, supported 9,590 full-time Canadian jobs, and contributed $766 million to the national GDP across 18 seasons.

We are so proud of the many ACTRA Toronto Members that have been a part of MURDOCH MYSTERIES over the years. Congratulations to everyone who has helped make the show a worldwide success, and to all who continue to fight for Canadian stories on our screens!
