Amanda Brugel
Pointe Claire in Montreal's West Island is a tiny, quiet town. It is a part of the island that has been called "the West Island." West Island has a lot of different communities. For those who haven't been aware of it frequently think it is a separate island facing west. It is often cited as being the place of birth for Amanda Brugel but while that is true, her stay there was short. Brugel lived in Courtice near Oshawa Ontario. She wanted to become a professional dancer, but because of a huge increase in her height, she outgrew all of her dancing partners. The Toronto Star article revealed she's 6ft 1in tall in heels. When I outgrew my male companions, I quit. Bruce was among the former dancers who turned into acting. Her high school teacher school encouraged her to take the next step. She was recommended by a teacher getting a part in the school's annual play. The student tried it out, and eventually got the leading role for the role in Anne of Green Gables.
