Introducing each of my guests is one of the challenges coordinating the roster for Life in Stages. The artists who accept my invitation to sit down and talk about their professional and personal stories represent the finest artists in the country. Each background is rich, varied, intriguing.
Jimmy Mezon is no exception — in fact, his depth and range are nothing short of intimidating. And I’ve had the good fortune to see him play in as wide a range of theatrical styles as one can imagine. There’s nothing he cannot do and, in fact, has not done.
A foundational presence at the Shaw Festival has included roles in St. Joan, The Madness of King George, The Intellectual Homosexual’s Guide to Capitalism and Socialism, Faith Healer, Cat on a Hot Tin Roof, Pygmalion, Nothing Sacred, The Seagull and Translations.
His performance in Picnic remains a standout for me - a role that played against so many strong, powerful characters that have dominated his stage career.
Film and television credits include Workin’ Moms, Frankie Drake Mysteries, Murdoch Mysteries, Passchendaele, Road to Avonlea and Dieppe.
