ESCC showcasing student, community talent in “9 to 5”

February 8, 2024 | ESCC

Join Enterprise State Community College’s Fine Arts Division this March as students and community members share what life is like while working “9 to 5” in the College’s spring production of the hit musical.

According to the Music Theatre International website, “’9 to 5 The Musical,’ with music and lyrics by Dolly Parton and book by Patricia Resnick, is based on the seminal 1980 hit movie. 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 the sexist, egotistical, lying, hypocritical bigot they call their boss. In a hilarious turn of events, Violet, Judy and Doralee live out their wildest fantasy – giving their boss the boot! While Hart remains ‘otherwise engaged,’ 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?”

Tickets sales are open for community members and ESCC students. Tickets can be purchased at escc.edu/9to5 or through the ESCC Business Office. General Admission tickets are $15, and student tickets are $5. Students must purchase their tickets through the Business Office and be able to show their Student ID.

Performances of “9 to 5” will be March 14, 15, and 16 in the Student Center MPR. Each performance will begin at 7 p.m.
