Marta Dusseldorp prepares to say goodbye to A Place To Call Home: “It will be difficult”

An emotional Marta Dusseldorp, who plays feisty character Sarah Adams on A Place To Call Home, has revealed she has begun preparing to say goodbye to her character and show which has been her life for the past six years.

Speaking to Confidential, Marta said, “Six seasons is a lot, and like any good book, you have to eventually close it.”

Marta and the cast are currently in production filming scenes for the final season of the period drama, which will wrap in the coming weeks.

“I don’t think it will hit me until it goes to air because we are still shooting,” the AACTA award winning actress shared.

“The ending for me is very definitive and that will be difficult to play,” Marta added.

A Place To Call Home debuted on Channel Seven in 2012 but was cancelled after two seasons. Also starring Noni Hazelhurst, Frankie J. Holden and Brett Climo, Foxtel made a deal in 2014 for the show to be produced and aired on its channels SoHo and Showcase.

Marta, 45, says her next role will involve spending time creating some “fabulous female-driven projects”.

“That’s my plan and my next adventure,” she confirmed.

“I’m already onto that. They’re Australian stories for Australian people.”
