Dundalk Theatre Workshop presents Educating Rita by Willy Russell in An Táin Arts Centre from 14th - 17th January, 2026.


Educating Rita is about a working class Liverpool girl’s hunger for education. Funny, and passionately serious. A social documentary: a fairy- tale with a quizzical, half-happy ending.


Willy Russell has taken a look at two segments of English society and engineered a collision that is full of regret as it is of promise.


A touching play about the melancholic ways education often pulls people apart instead of bringing them together.


Featuring Fiona Mullen & Fergus Mullen. Directed by Bernard Dunne. Set by Ultan Hogers. Stage Manager Nessa Toale.
