BE PART OF THE STORY
“Pour yourself a cup of ambition” and join us for auditions for 9 to 5: The Musical. Based on the 1980 film of the same name and featuring a score by the inimitable Dolly Parton, this show centers around three women — an overworked office manager, a jilted wife, and an objectified secretary — who conspire to depose their smarmy boss and begin making woman-friendly changes in the workplace. Full of fun songs & dance numbers, fabulous fashion, feminism, and a dash of fantasy, 9 to 5 will leave you cheering!
We are committed to casting a group of actors ranging in age from 18-80 who reflect the people of our community. We will be casting all roles to include different shapes, ethnicities, and identities.
The ensemble is heavily involved throughout the show including onstage and offstage singing. The ensemble will also be required to be strong movers, with some opportunities for featured dancers. Please refer to the Character Descriptions section below to learn more about the variety of parts. Understudies for speaking roles may be cast from the ensemble (please note that understudying a role will not restrict/limit opportunities for your principal track).
