About This Book
Educating Rita, about a working-class Liverpool girl's hunger for education, is 'simply a marvellous play, painfully funny and passionately serious; a hilarious social documentary; a fairy-tale with a quizzical, half-happy ending.' Sunday Times Educating Rita premiered at the RSC Warehouse, London, in June 1980. Voted Best Comedy of 1980, it was subsequently made into a highly successful film with Michael Caine and Julie Walters.

nervous,Ā
but
as
IĀ
entered
the

of

College
I

Authorās
Note
toĀ
the
Revised
Edition
WhileĀ
IĀ
realise
that
theĀ
textĀ
of
EducatingĀ
Rita
is
frequently
prescribed
forĀ
examinations
and
I
would
not
want
to
override
the
needs
of
students
and
their
examiners,
my
main
consideration
is
with
the
companies
that
actĀ
my
plays
andĀ
the
audiences
that
watchĀ
them.
AndĀ
itĀ
is
for
this
reason
that
I
wouldĀ
likeĀ
toĀ
make
available
this
updated
version
of
Educating
Rita
.
I
havenāt,Ā
inĀ
any
way,
radically
overhauledĀ
theĀ
text
to
the
extent
of
changingĀ
theĀ
play
itself.
What
I
have
done
is
to
address
thoseĀ
areas
where
there
were
very,
very
specific
references
to
the
time
inĀ
which
theĀ
play
was
originally
written.
While
I
have
notĀ
triedĀ
to
reset
the
play
in
the
twenty-first
century,
what
I
have
done
is
cut
and
edit
andĀ
rewrite
in
such
a
way
that
the
play
can
beĀ
perceived
as
taking
place
in
its
own
time
(something
that
just
wasnāt
possibleĀ
when
the
text
contained
references
to
figures
and
institutions
and
attitudes
firmly
of
theĀ
lateĀ
1970s/early
1980s).
