Pittsburgh Tribune-Review: "Ask Helena Ruoti how she sees Cleopatra and a cornucopia of adjectives tumble forth -- vivacious, intelligent, educated and cunning.
'She was a Mata Hari type and that's what made her so exciting,' says Ruoti, who will play Cleopatra in Pittsburgh Irish & Classical Theatre's season opening production of 'Antony & Cleopatra.' 'She spoke nine languages. She guerillaed her way onto the Actium battlefield. She was so wealthy, so resourceful and (someone) who could speak (directly) to the kings, they wanted to fight on their side.'
