Full Cast Set for 9 TO 5 THE MUSICAL UK Tour

The cast has been revealed for the upcoming UK tour of 9 to 5 The Musical, the ultimate feel-good musical comedy, opening at Peterborough's New Theatre on 04 July. 

Bringing sass, style, and a whole lot of ‘Dolly' sparkle, the talented line-up Includes: Jessica Martin (Me and My Girl, Adelphi Theatre / Jerry's Girls, Menier Chocolate Factory) as Roz, Karla Tracey (Irish Affair; A Love Story for All Time,  National Opera House, Ireland) as Doralee, Kayla Carter (Military Wives, York Theatre Royal / I Should Be So Lucky, UK & Ireland Tour) as Judy, Tim Rogers (West Side Story, West End & UK Tour / Jesus Christ Superstar, UK & Europe Tour) as Hart and Jade Marvin (Starlight Express, Troubadour Wembley Park Theatre / Six ,NCL) as Violet. 

They appear alongside Sammy Graham (The Sound of Music, London Palladium) as Kathy, Ceris Hine (The Rocky Horror Show, UK Tour) as Margaret, Bradley Judge (Sister Act, West End & Uk Tour) as Dwayne / Detective /Tinsworthy, Benjamin Karran (Les Misérables, West End) as Joe, Colin Kiyani (Flashdance, UK & International Tour) as Bob / Dick / Doctor, Alicia Mencía (Moulin Rouge! The Musical, West End) as Maria, Rodney Vubya (Titanique, Criterion Theatre) as Josh, Jemima-Jane Willcox (Mary Poppins, UK and Ireland Tour) as Missy / Candystriper.  The ensemble includes Jamie Chidzey (Come From Away, Cunard) and Beth Woodcock (Bat Out of Hell, Uk Tour) and Ashley St John (Get Down Tonight, Charing Cross Theatre) who is also Dance Captain.

Playing the fiercely loyal, and slightly unhinged office manager Roz, Jessica Martin says: “I can't wait to bring Roz out on tour in this hugely entertaining sharp, sassy and subversive show!  A tribute to the queen that is Dolly!” Tim Rogers as Franklin Hart Jr, the ‘boss you love to hate', adds: “It's going to be a blast!”

Inspired by the much-loved 1980s film, this 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. Featuring an irresistible score by country music legend Dolly Parton, the smash-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.

Produced by Landmark Theatres by arrangement with Music Theatre International, 9 to 5 The Musical marks a major milestone as Landmark's first in-house production to tour nationally. It is Directed by Paul Jepson, with Set and Costume Design by Amanda Stoodley, Musical Supervision by Mark Crossland, Lighting Design by Andy Purves, Sound Design by Chris Whybrow, Assistant Direction by Sonny Nwachukwu.

Paul Jepson, CEO and Creative Director at Landmark Theatres said: “9 to 5 is a feel-good show with a big heart seen from the point of view of three strong women whose friendship comes to rule the office world.  Patriarchal male power behaviours are skewered.  But all the characters have heart and soul - and most of all dreams. Most of the witty dialogue is from the excellent Colin Higgins's film - and there are banging numbers.  My favourites being Get Out Stay Out, Hart to Heart and One of the Boys.  I'm excited to be directing it and particularly excited that we will have our band on stage!”

This brand-new production opens at Peterborough New Theatre in July before touring to Barnstaple, Blackpool, Bridlington, Coventry, Darlington, Guildford, Hastings, Ipswich, and Worthing.
