“We went to audition for Pacific Theatre years ago. I think we auditioned for the same role, and Lettie got it in the end. But the whole entire time of the audition, I couldn't stop laughing. Just the funniest woman I'd ever met ... I remember walking out of there going, 'oh well, there goes my career'. ”
