9 to 5 show time!

ST MICHAEL’S Theatre Musical Society brings the hit Dolly Parton musical 9 to 5 to the stage in New Ross from tonight (Tuesday) to Saturday night.

Directed by Kevin Kennedy, with musical direction by Philip Kennedy and choreography by Claire Kickham, this musical comedy is an uplifting and fun-filled theatrical treat, packed with big chorus numbers, wonderful ensemble pieces and provocative solos.

Based on the 1980 movie of the same name, 9 to 5 The Musical tells the story of Violet Newstead, Judy Bernly and Doralee Rhodes, three colleagues working under the supervision of boss Franklin Hart Jr. As their friendship strengthens through adversity, the girls concoct a scheme to kidnap Hart and take control of the office, implementing a series of new innovative office policies and transforming their workplace into a better place to be.

Starring Teresa Buckley as Violet, Ashley Doran as Judy and Jennifer White as Doralee with Keith Flanagan as Franklin Hart Jr. and an ensemble cast including Julie Kinsella, Michael Benson, Phil Erskine, Owen Cullnane, Edward O’Dowd and Brid Moloney, rehearsals have been in full swing with everything gearing up to the opening night.
