It was a hit movie in 1980, and now 9 to 5: The Musical is coming to Laycock St Community Theatre, presented by Gosford Musical Society (GMS).

The high-energy production follows the hilarious journey of three female office workers who unite against their sexist, egotistical boss.

With music and lyrics by Dolly Parton, the Tony Award-nominated musical combines laughter, female empowerment and toe-tapping tunes that will leave audiences cheering.

Gosford Musical Society is renowned for its dedication to producing top-quality performances, and 9 to 5: The Musical is no exception.

It is directed by Karen Snook, who received much praise for her sold-out production of Strictly Ballroom for the society in 2019.

With exceptional vocal skills and awe-inspiring dancing abilities, the stellar cast is sure to captivate audiences from start to finish.

“I am absolutely thrilled with the incredible vocal abilities and remarkable dancing skills of our cast members,” Snook said.

“Each performer brings a unique energy and charisma to their role, creating a truly unforgettable experience for the audience.

“The talent on display in 9 to 5: The Musical is a testament to the hard work and dedication of our amazing cast.

“We also welcome some new faces to GMS, bringing with them a wealth of sensational acting and vocal skills.”

Heading the cast are Sancia West as Violet, Jacqui Grunden as Doralee and newcomer Sally Redman as Judy.

Another newcomer, Steve Burchill, plays Frank and other leads include Sam Powell as Roz and Addison Morley as Joe.

9 to 5: The Musical will be performed at the Laycock St Community Theatre from July 28-August 12.
