Starring Robert NewmanBased on the hit 1980 film, which starred Lily Tomlin, Jane Fonda and the stage shows composer/lyricist Dolly Parton, the Broadway musical adaptation follows three very different women all employed by mega-company Consolidated. The three women are Violet Newstead, a strong-willed longtime employee frequently passed over for promotion because of her gender, Judy Bernly, a mousy divorcee entering the workforce for the first time, and Doralee Rhodes, a sexy, sassy Southern spitfire frequently misunderstood by her coworkers.The trio is at the mercy of manipulative misogynist boss Franklin Hart Jr. - will be played by Robert Newman. When Violet, Judy and Doralee have finally had enough, they concoct a half-cocked plan to kidnap Hart and hold him hostage in his own home while they get the ultimate revenge. But will their plot work? And can a team of secretaries really get ahead in the impenetrable boys club that is 9 to 5s office hell?
