Life
English-born Kuti graduated from Balliol College, Oxford with a degree in English, and completed her MA at King's College London. She is of partial Hungarian descent through her paternal grandfather, whose original surname Kipslinger was adapted to 'Kuti' to disguise its Germanic origins. In 1993 she moved to Ireland to study at Trinity College Dublin, where she wrote her doctoral thesis on eighteenth-century women playwrights. In October 2004, she joined the Department of Literature, Film, and Theatre Studies, University of Essex.[1]
In 1999, the company Rough Magic produced her first work for the theatre, the completion of Frances Sheridan's eighteenth-century comedy A Trip to Bath, retitled as The Whisperers.[2]
She has performed with most of Ireland's leading theatre companies including the Abbey and Peacock, Rough Magic, Loose Canon, Bedrock and the Corn Exchange.
She performed in Car Show; Dublin 1742, by John Banville; Melonfarmer, by Alex Johnston; Still, by Rosalind Haslett. She directed Stone Ghosts, by Sue Mythen.[3]
Awards
She won the 2006 Susan Smith Blackburn Prize.

Reviews
Kuti is indeed a fine writer, and this is a text that repays re-reading. The sugar metaphor - the sweetness that is of often sour, not just to the slaves forced to produce it but to everyone who thereafter touches it - is particularly powerful.[5]
