What a way to make a livin’!

Join us this July and August for Dolly Parton’s hilarious musical comedy about friendship and revenge in the Rolodex era.

9 to 5 The Musical follows Doralee, Violet and Judy, three very different workmates pushed to breaking point by their sexist, egotistical boss. When they hatch a daring plan to kidnap him and turn the tables, the women seize the chance to transform their workplace for the better. But just as the office begins to thrive, an unexpected visit from the CEO threatens to unravel everything.

Bold, funny and sharp, 9 to 5 is a high-energy celebration of friendship, empowerment and taking back control, with big laughs and even bigger heart.

Featuring 23 fabulous Hobart performers and a live 12 piece band!
