Published on | Source
Multi-talented entertainer Choi Hwa-jung returns to the Daehangno stage after a 14-year hiatus with the Korean rendition of the West End's play "Educating Rita".
In the drama, the actress also known as a famous radio DJ and cable TV show host will take the title role of Susan White, a 20-something married woman working as a hairdresser. The drama will hit the stage at Theater Wonder Face in Daehangno on March 14 for a two-month run.
"Educating Rita" was her last drama when she left the Daehangno theater 14 years ago, leaving her enthusiastic fans behind.
The 46-year-old actress will play the role with Yoon Joo-sang, the same partner she performed with previously in the two-actor show.
In 1993, she received the best actress award from DongA Drama Award for her performance in the drama.
"Educating Rita" is an award-winning stage comedy by British playwright Willy Russell. Set entirely in the office of a university lecturer, the drama tells the story of a woman eager to learn what the world of knowledge and education has to offer, rather than following her husband's request to have a baby.
