Audrey’s Story

Opera Lover Audrey Hubbard Helps Keep the Story Going

Audrey Hubbard has seen opera grow and change a great deal in Manitoba throughout her 95 years. By making a planned gift to Manitoba Opera’s Endowment Fund, she is excited to be part of that growth well into the future.

Audrey caught the opera bug as a young girl during the Second World War. A traveling company had come to town to perform in the old auditorium (now the Archives Building), and Audrey’s father took her family to see Rigoletto.

“I had no idea what to expect. I’d never seen a live play before!” Audrey recalls. “It was in Italian and I couldn’t follow the story at the time, but the music really hit me.”
