9 to 5 the Musical
Get ready to clock in for a night of laughter and iconic songs!
Join us for the ultimate feel-good musical comedy as 9 to 5 The Musical bursts onto the stage with sass, style, and a whole lot of Dolly sparkle!
Featuring an irresistible score by country music legend Dolly Parton, this hit show follows three office workers who’ve had enough of their overbearing, chauvinistic boss. When a wild idea turns into a daring plan for revenge, chaos, comedy, and sisterhood take centre stage.
Inspired by the much-loved 1980s film, 9 to 5 The Musical is a joyful story about friendship, courage, and standing up for what’s right, all set to toe-tapping tunes you’ll be humming long after the curtain falls.
Lively, empowering, and outrageously funny, this is one night at the theatre you won’t want to miss!
