Peta Rutter Quotes:
About Sarah Kane:"She is an amazing playwright. 4.48 Psychosis was two years in the writing. She was reading widely on the subject in that time and the play works on a lot of other levels as well. Her work is very layered, and we experimented a lot to get to the essence of it."
Quotes About Peta:
Jackie Marchand:"Peta was such a lovely woman and a wonderful, generous actor. We were so lucky to have her."
Bruce Kalish:
"Peta was an extraordinary actress who owned the part as she walked in the room. The consummate professional who mastered drama and comedy. She was intelligent, gracious, outgoing and beautiful who enriched the lives of everyone she worked with."
Simon Prast:
"With her sparkling, dancing eyes and beautiful, vibrant soul, she brought a unique blend of cool intelligence and anarchic elegance to Auckland theatre. In this age of beige, Peta was a fountain of originality."
Carl Bland (Peta's Husband):
"It's a double-edged sword, the old suffering thing, isn't it? The more you suffer, the nicer the person you are." He is a nicer person now? "Yes, I am." Which is no consolation at all because obviously he'd rather have Peta than be a nicer person. "F*** yeah. You'd give up everything to have her back."
"At the end of the play, the Reverend gives a long speech, which is actually Rutter’s writing and “it’s very funny, because she could be very funny”, Bland recalls wistfully. “It’s quite black, too, but you have to approach this work with a sense of humour, otherwise it gets too depressing; for some reason, human nature is able to laugh in the darkest moments.”
Natasha Hay:
"Both Feeney and Peta Rutter, as his long-suffering but feisty wife Maura, manage to portray their characters without lapsing into cliché."
