At KTW Theatre, Koorliny Arts Centre Sulphur Road Kwinana Full Length, Comedy 1 male, 1 female Frank is a tutor of English in his fifties whose disillusioned outlook on life drives him to drink and bury himself in his books. Enter Rita, a forthright 26 year-old hairdresser who is eager to learn. After weeks of cajoling, Rita slowly wins over the very hesitant Frank with her innate insight and refusal to accept no for an answer. Their relationship as teacher and student blossoms, ultimately giving Frank a new sense of self and Rita the knowledge she so craves. The play became a hit film with Michael Caine and Julie Walters. "Warmly written...It is the interchange of feeling and realization of new approaches to life on both sides that make this play of particular interest."-London Telegraph "A marvellous play, painfully funny and passionately serious; a hilarious social documentary; a fairy tale with a quizzical, half happy ending."-London Times Also looking for lighting/sound operators, backstage hands, set builders, front of house, musical directors, choreographers, production manager not just for this show but for other upcoming possible productions such as “Pirates of Penzance” in 2012 See More 7.00pm TUESDAY 31st May 2011 Production Dates 20th, 21st, 22nd, 27th, 28th, 29th ,30th October 3rd, 4th and 5th November For more information please contact Adam 0438 919 729 or flint77@hotmail.com
