Pierre Trudeau opened the theatre I built
in 1975, and when he came, we had this amazingly detailed itinerary that Pierre
blew all to Hell when he broke protocol to ask me if I knew renowned local
singer Ann Mortifee. I said we had worked together for months and
although I revered her talent and loved her as a performer, I couldn't say I
knew her. But I said I knew someone who did and so he asked me to get hold of
my friend and get him Ann's number.
I can't believe it, it was so long ago. But
that happened and I have been telling people for decades that I pimped for the
PM. But, I never knew if they got together, so I wrote to Ann's sister Jane and
she forwarded my request to know how the story ends to Ann. Now, Ann and I
are getting together this coming week so I can include the ending in my play, HoMe.
I am working to bring other voices into my
script.
