I don’t know about you but I loved the movie 9 to 5, starring Dolly Parton, Lilly Tomlin and Jane Fonda. The comedy timing was brilliant.  Yet, the social message it conveyed about the treatment of women in the work place is poignant.

That was in 1980 and most likely the work force is a little bit better but still needs reform. So girls,  is coming to Broadway as a musical in 2009.  Dolly Parton’s music and lyrics has been added along with 20 new songs to the original soundtrack. 

I am very excited for her, and I hope Lilly and Jane attend the premiere in Los Angeles in September.  The musical will move to Broadway for an April 23 opening.

The musical 9 to 5 stars Allison Janney, Stephanie J. Block, Megan Hilty and Marc Kudisch.
