Amanda Brugel
Pointe Claire resides in a sleepy part of Montreal Island, which is known as West Island. This part of the island known as West Island can be confusing to people unfamiliar with its meaning. Many people believe that it's an island to the to the west of Montreal However, it's actually the West Island encompasses everything between the two cities of Lachine as well as West. Amanda Brugel was born there and her time there was short. Brugel lived in Courtice close to Oshawa the city of Ontario. At the beginning of her life she wanted to be the next big thing in her career, but a sudden expansion of her body made it impossible. In an interview with Toronto Star, she confessed that "In heels, I'm 6 feet, 1 inch." When I grew out of my male dancers, I decided to quit. Many former dancers turn to acting and in the case of Brugel, it was a nudge from the drama instructor at her high school that led her in the right direction. She was a teacher at the time who advised her to go after a role in the annual school production. She auditioned and ended up playing the lead for the role in Anne of Green Gables. After receiving the Fine Arts Talent Scholarship, she attended York University and earned a Bachelor of Fine Arts degree in the year 2000. Over the past 20 years, the roles played by Brugel on TV and the big screen have been varied. The role of Rita from the award winning show The Handmaid's Tale was her most memorable. Brugel made an appearance on only a handful of moments in the very first season of The Handmaid's Tale. She was the only Canadian member.
