9 TO 5 THE MUSICAL - Stage Door Inc.
9 to 5: The Musical
will open 2015 season at Stage Door Inc.
9 to 5: The Musical is a hilarious new Broadway musical based on the blockbuster film. Pushed to the boiling point by their boss, three female co-workers concoct a plan to get even with their sexist, egotistical, lying, hypocritical boss. They conspire to take control of their company and learn there's nothing they can't do, even in a man's world! 9 to 5: The Musical is a story of friendship and getting ahead in the Rolodex era. Outrageous, thought-provoking and even a little romantic, 9 to 5: The Musical features Dolly Parton's original hit title song along with her new Tony Award and Grammy-nominated score, including Backwoods Barbie and Shine Like the Sun.
9 to 5: The Musical will be performed on the Stage Door Inc. stage from January 9 - February 1. Tickets are $15 and can be purchased online at www.stagedoorinc.com .
