9 to 5, The Musical

The Center for the Arts presents “9 to 5 The Musical,” running February 10 – 26, 2017. Written by Dolly Parton, the musical revisits her 1980 classic film for this hilarious adaptation that will have audiences laughing and cheering. Like the movie, “9 to 5 The Musical” focuses on the struggle of three women in the workplace: Violet who is strong, independent and constantly overlooked, Judy – the new hire who just wants to pick up the pieces and fend for herself after the unexpected demise of her marriage, and Doralee, the straight-forward Texan that is determined to prove she is more than meets the eye. Standing in their way is Mr. Hart, the “sexist, egotistical, lying, hypocritical bigot.” Together, these women overcome the odds and learn what ingenuity, persistence, and most importantly, friendship, can do. The show is directed by Matthew Hayes Hunter.
