The MTSU Theatre Department will stage a production of 9 to 5: The Musical, with music and lyrics by Dolly Parton and book by Patricia Resnick, at the Tucker Theatre on the MTSU campus. Based on the 1980 hit movie and set in the late 1970s, this hilarious story of friendship and revenge in the Rolodex era is outrageous, thought-provoking and even a little romantic.
Pushed to the boiling point, three female coworkers concoct a plan to get even with their sexist, egotistical, lying, hypocritical boss. In a hilarious turn of events, Violet, Judy and Doralee live out their wildest fantasy—giving their boss the boot! The women give their workplace a dream makeover, taking control of the company that had always kept them down. Hey, a girl can scheme, can’t she?
Showtimes will be 7:30 p.m. on Thursday, Friday and Saturday, Nov. 8, 9 and 10; and at 2 p.m. on Sunday, Nov. 11.
General admission tickets are $15; MTSU students are free with ID at the box office night of the show.
