Krista Sutton (born March 29, 1970) is a Canadian actress, best known for her leading role in the improvisational drama series Train 48.
Born in Pointe-Claire, Quebec, she grew up in Toronto, Ontario, and was educated at Havergal College and the University of Toronto. Her parents, Bill and Pat Sutton, were theatre practitioners who launched the Georgian Theatre Festival in Meaford, Ontario, where Krista has also been an actor and director.
She had her first prominent role in the 2000 film American Psycho as Sabrina, a sex worker who was at the centre of the sex scene that controversially led to the film getting an NC-17 rating. In 2003, she received a Dora Mavor Moore Award nomination for Outstanding Actress, Independent Theatre, for her performance in This Could Be Love.
She was cowriter with Penelope Buitenhuis of the 2009 film A Wake, in which she also played one of the main roles.
