Mermaind plugin for PyCharm does not recognise "create participant"

The Mermaid plugin for PyCharm does not seem to allow the mid-sequence creation of classes.

When using the live mermaid editor with this code:

sequenceDiagram
    A ->> B: Hi B
    create participant C
    A ->> C: Hi C

I correctly get the following imageMermaid Live Editor

The same code in the PyCharm plugin I get error: <signal type> or ID expected, got 'participant'

...create participant C    A ->> C: Hi C
-----------------------^
Expecting 'SOLID_OPEN_ARROW', 'DOTTED_OPEN_ARROW', 'SOLID_ARROW', 'DOTTED_ARROW', 'SOLID_CROSS', 'DOTTED_CROSS', 'SOLID_POINT', 'DOTTED_POINT', got 'NEWLINE'

Is there a way around this? I have not found references to the PyCharm plugin in relation to this issue with Mermaid.
