\u201cThis show has been such a joy to work on, especially since it\u2019s the first musical for many of our students,\u201d Carrie Gundling, drama club director, said. \u201cWatching them step outside their comfort zones, grow in confidence, and coming together as a team has been incredibly rewarding. The kids have brought such excitement and energy to this show, I can\u2019t wait for our community to see the end result.\u201d<\/p>\n
According to Gundling, the play, taking place in 1979, is a high-energy musical about three unlikely friends who join forces to take control of their office and transform it for the better.<\/p>\n
The play is led by Pittston Area seniors Emily Fronczek as Violet Newstead, Stacey Toot as Judy Bernly, and Lilly Spathelf as Doralee Rhodes.<\/p>\n
Based on the hit 1979 film \u201c9 to 5,\u201d this upbeat production features music and lyrics by Dolly Parton and a book by Patricia Resnick.<\/p>\n
\u201c9 to 5 Jr.\u201d is presented through a special arrangement with Music Theatre International (MTI).<\/p>\n
