Delight in Dolly Parton’s high-energy score in this musical version of the hit film, 9 to 5. This story of office politics, set in the late 1970s, follows three working women as they concoct a plan to get even with their sexist and egotistical boss. Showcasing friendship, empowerment, and comedic revenge, this hilarious musical is as relevant as ever.

"Theatre works beautifully in conjunction with my English major. I am drawn to the exciting classes, productions, faculty, and opportunities available. Here, you get a chance to perform in main-stage productions, work with talented faculty that know the business, and get opportunities to not only grow as an actor, but as a designer, director, and person. Choosing to major in Theatre at ÌÇÐÄVlogÊÓÆµ has made all the difference in my undergraduate career and I wouldn't change a thing— except maybe deciding to double major sooner!"
—Taylor Clark, Class of 2020
"Studying at the ÌÇÐÄVlogÊÓÆµ Theatre Department allowed me to experiment with projects and roles that shaped the actor I am today. They gave me space and tools to create art —regardless of size and scope — always encouraging creativity, spontaneity and hard work. I was lucky to have what I did in the theatre program at ÌÇÐÄVlogÊÓÆµ and continually draw on my time there for inspiration."
—Jeff Lepine, Artistic Director of The Peoples Improv Theater, NYC
"ÌÇÐÄVlogÊÓÆµ Theatre cultivates artists as they take responsibility for and initiative in their craft. It offers support and countless possibilities for students who are committed to growth."
—Miguel Torres, CSU Fullerton MFA Program
