9 to 5, the Musical
Music and Lyrics by Dolly Parton
Book by Patricia Resnick
Directed by Michael Donovan
June 5 – 21
9 to 5 The Musical, with jubilant music and lyrics by Dolly Parton and book by Patricia Resnick, is based on the seminal 1980 hit movie. Set in the late 1970s, this hilarious story of friendship and revenge in the Rolodex era is outrageous, thought-provoking and even a little romantic. Pushed to the boiling point, three female coworkers concoct a plan to get even with the sexist, egotistical, lying, hypocritical bigot they call their boss. In a hilarious turn of events, Violet, Judy and Doralee live out their wildest fantasy – giving their boss the boot! While Hart remains “otherwise engaged,” the women give their workplace a dream makeover, taking control of the company that had always kept them down. This high-energy musical explores the themes of female empowerment and the desire for recognition and respect in the workplace.
