Two Canadian acting legends will be in the spotlight Monday night as Christopher Plummer presents a special honour to Gordon Pinsent. Pinsent is being recognized as this year’s recipient of the Stratford Festival’s Legacy Award. Plummer will present the honour to Pinsent at a ceremony in Toronto. It will be a reversal of roles for the two actors and longtime friends, after Pinsent presented the Oscar winner with the festival’s inaugural Legacy Award in 2011. The 86-year-old Pinsent first joined the festival company in 1962, appearing in productions of Macbeth, The Taming of the Shrew and The Tempest.
