Get ready to tap your feet and sing along because 9 to 5: The Musical is coming to the Central Coast! This toe-tapping show has been a sensation with audiences worldwide, and we can't wait to see it brought to life by the talented team at Gosford Musical Society.

So, what's all the fuss about? Well, first of all, we have to talk about the one and only Dolly Parton. That's right, the country music legend penned the music and lyrics for this musical, and let's just say, she knocked it out of the park. Parton's signature sound is infused throughout the show, making for a fun and lively soundtrack that will have you humming along for days.

But it's not just about the music. 9 to 5: The Musical tells the story of three working women who are fed up with their sexist and egotistical boss. After one too many condescending remarks and unfair treatment, they decide to take matters into their own hands and overthrow him. It's a story of female empowerment and standing up against injustice, something that audiences have been resonating with since the show's premiere in 2009.

And when it comes to the upcoming production by Gosford Musical Society, we have a lot to be excited about. The incredible production team, led by director Karen Snook and musical director Chris Hochkins, is sure to bring their A-game to the stage. This is a big all-dancing musical, so get ready to see some impressive choreography and energetic performances that will have you on the edge of your seat.
