Educating Rita
by Willy Russell
Catherine Hickman Theater, Beach Boulevard & 26th Avenue South
Beautiful Downtown Gulfport, Florida
Witty, funny and beguiling ... She smokes, he drinks. She's undereducated, he is a university professor. She desperately wants to gain knowledge, he has the answers. When hairdresser Rita decides to get an education, she is assigned to Frank, and most unlikely romance blossoms,
as Frank sheds his dour academic demeanor and falls
for Rita's earthy humour, natural grace and intelligence.
Educating Rita is brimfull of heartfelt situations and hilarious one-liners. A 1983 classic starring Oscar-nominated actors Michael Caine and Julie Walters, Director Elaine Cloud Goller sets Educating Rita at a different Florida school for each performance.
