Our guest today is Jani Lauzon
Jani is a Canadian multidisciplinary artist of Métis/French/Finnish ancestry. She’s a Writer/Actor/Director/Musician and Puppeteer.
She is a 9 time Dora Mavor Moore nominated actress, a three time Juno nominated singer/songwriter, a
Gemini Award winning puppeteer, an award winning director, and an artist educator. Jani is the recipient of the 2024 Equity Showcase Woman of the Year award!
She has produced her own theatre work such as A Side of Dreams, I Call myself Princess, and Prophecy Fog through her company Paper Canoe Projects.
Our discussion included rejuvenating practices for self-care, Body memory, wisdom of the body and reading your body. We then moved on to Patsy Rodenburg and her decision to resign form Guildhall which led to us chatting about the craft of acting and that led to the craft of well-being in acting. All in all it was a very grounding
and humbling conversation. Hope you enjoy it…
