Educating Rita. After being postponed in March 2020, the show has been confirmed for the Rochdale Theatre opening on Friday, February 12. Director David Addenbrooke had to excuse himself from the role in the last 12 months, so producer Kylie Fuad stepped into the directing shoes. We are so excited to be back! she said. I m in constant conversation with David to ensure my work continues the vision he had for this production. The excellent script provides comedy and pathos and a heartfelt journey for both Frank and Rita and our two actors are really bringing this to life for an intimate theatre experience, said Kylie.
