Peter’s Alley opens its 4th Season with Willy Russell’s Educating Rita. This “two-hander” centers on Rita, a bright Liverpool hairdresser with a thirst for knowledge and her reluctant tutor, Frank, whose own thirst has turned to more to drink instead of teaching.Rarely produced in the states, the British comedy turns 35 this year but it has not lost a bit of its wit, or relevance. Many remember fondly the successful film version starring Michael Caine released in 1983.


Directed by Aly B. Ettman and featuring Dexter Hamlett (Frank) and Chelsea Mayo (Rita)
 


"*****The chemistry between the performers is unquestionable from the first scene... The story of 'Educating Rita' is relatable to anyone who has ever sought to grow or change. Coupled with the realness of the actors’ performances, their journey is not one to be missed." Kendall Mostafavi, DCMetroTheaterArts

 

*****"Educating Rita... is filled with razor sharp wit and is utterly inspirational. Under the clever direction of Aly B. Ettman, Mayo and Hamlett showed great comic timing in Willy Russell’s banter-rich scenes..a hilariously uplifting journey" Britt Oliver, DC Theatre Scene
