René Juta (18**-) was an actress and author.

In 1909, inspired by the grand preparations in Cape Town for a national pageant intended to inaugurate the newly-forged Union of South Africa in 1910, she composed an outdoor pageant, the Masque of the Silver Trees; a neo-classical quasi-Jacobean performance.
