Description Willy Russell's modern take on the Pygmalion myth sees the frustrated but inquisitive Rita enrolling in an Open University literature course, while Frank decided to take on students to pay for his drinking. Both get more than they bargained for, but the question is, who has been educated?

Winner of more prizes than can be listed in a blurb like this, Educating Rita has been thrilling audiences since it was first produced in 1980.
