An exclusive interview with Bruno Pelletier hosted by Lisa Monde for The Theater Times

In February 2006, Lisa traveled to Montreal, Canada to attend the premiere of the new (at the time) musical “Dracula. Entre L’amour et la Mort”, where she interviewed Bruno Pelletier – the performer of the title role of Dracula –  the “Golden Voice” of Canada. This August, Lisa and Bruno met again, 16 years later, to talk about his return to the famous musical Notre Dame de Paris as the original poet Gringoire for a special revival tour of the show. 

“This past August Bruno Pelletier – the “Golden voice of Canada”, the very first and original Gringoire of the musical Notre Dame de Paris, celebrated his 60th anniversary. In summer 2022 Notre Dame de Paris came to NYC, to the Lincoln Center and the spectators were able to enjoy the famous show for several weeks… That is how the new tour of this old musical began. In Canada, the spectators were lucky to witness Bruno Pelletier perform the part of the poet Pierre Gringoire once again. Just like Daniel Lavoie, who graced the stage of the Lincoln Center, Bruno returned to Notre Dame de Paris 24 years later… In this interview with Lisa, Bruno shares how his character of Gringoire became more mature, what new qualities he acquired, how the original production of the musical was different from the subsequent productions…”
