Episode 161: Pascale Hutton

The YVR Screen Scene Podcast

Pascale Hutton is a bona fide genre-hopper, and the proof is in the work: as the beleaguered Juliana on Chris Haddock’s Intelligence, a role for which she won a Gemini Award for Best Performance by an Actress in a Guest Role, to FBI Special Agent Abby Corrigan on Sanctuary (a role that required her to tangle with Abnormals and kick ass and also, famously, sing), to pilot Krista Ivarson on Arctic Air, and now to actress-turned-dress-store-clerk-to-who knows-what-else Rosemary Coulter on Hallmark’s wildly popular When Calls the Heart (as well as a multitude of Hallmark rom-coms). Pascale shines bright in sci-fi, high drama, action-adventures, and family fare, and fans and peers alike love her for it.

In this funny, expansive, and revealing interview, Pascale reflects on her journey from imaginative girl in rural British Columbia to playing beloved characters like Juliana, Abby, Krista, and Rosemary, where these characters overlap with who Pascale is as a human being, and where she’d like to see When Calls the Heart’s Rosemary go next.
