"It's best not to let the audience know too much. I think it's always nice if people go in not knowing what to expect and then they can be surprised and enthralled."
~ Steven Culp



Quotes by Steven Culp about "The Parisian Woman "



"It's best not to let the audience know too much. [...] I think it's always nice if people go in not knowing what to expect and then they can be surprised and enthralled. There's plenty here that I think will surprise them. That's the way Beau likes to write."

"I'm in many ways the opposite of Tom. [...] I grew up on the right side of the tracks. I'm a mover and shaker and can work to his advantage if I choose to."




Media quotes about Steven Culp in "The Parisian Woman"


"Culp and Mozo do well with Peter and Rebecca, who may be otherwise intelligent but are putty in the hands of Chloe." ~ The Huffington Post

"Culp endows his character, who's going through a messy divorce, with anxieties that can only be alleviated by Chloe's maddeningly withheld creature comfort." ~ Daily Pilot

"As Peter, Culp is a delightful mess of sweaty intentions – lust, fear, anger. Clearly, this is a man who can be manipulated like a panicky sheep." ~ Orange County Register

"Steven Culp takes on the challenging role of Peter, a wealthy man of meaningful power himself, who has fallen prey to Chloe's attraction powers. Culp manages to show near mental pain, & begging, due to "I Can't Live Without You" cycles he's going through as Chloe's marriage gives minimal time for Peter. What adds to his role is Culp's showing flashes of anger, revenge & being fed up, as would be expected of a rich, connected man not used to being treated like a lap-dog. Peter's angry fighting back foretells Chore's exposed powers may indeed run into new enemies." ~ Newport Beach Patch

"Steven Culp and Steven Weber provide bang-up support as the men in Chloe's life." ~ Stage Scene LA

"Culp excels as the needy Peter, as the character cycles from sympathetic to simply pathetic and back again, often in the same scene." ~ LAist
