by Dolly Parton & Patricia Resnick
Opening the festival on the Mainstage is 9 TO 5 – THE MUSICAL, a funny and fierce story set in the Rolodex era.

Set in the late 1970s, this hilarious story of friendship, revenge, and female empowerment is outrageous, thought-provoking, and even a little romantic.
