Introduction
Welcome to the Governor General’s Performing Arts Awards Legacy Interviews. The inaugural interviews took place at Rideau Hall on May 9, 2014.
The 2023 laureates were interviewed by past laureate and former GGPAA Foundation co-chair Paul-André Fortier and past board member Denise Donlon.
Our laureates spoke about what the award means to them and they discussed what advice they had received about life in the performing arts. They also offer advice to those wishing to be involved in the arts as performers or supporters.
The 2023 interviews took place on May 27 at The Westin Ottawa. Camera and editing were provided by Mick Gzowski and sound by Jerry Turchyn.
So sit back and enjoy insights, advice and even a few laughs.
