“9 to 5 The Musical,” with 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. Hey, a girl can scheme, can’t she?
