Breaking News!

9 to 5 is coming to Broadway with all-new songs written by Dolly Parton herself, and a libretto by Patricia Resnick (who?).

HOW DID I NOT KNOW ABOUT THIS FOR THE 2 YEARS SINCE SHE ANNOUNCED IT ON LARRY KING IN 2005???

My thoughts on the matter are:
  1. OH MY GOD, can I preorder tickets????
  2. I absolutely loveAllison Janney for Violet. She is the best choice to step into Lily Tomlin's shiny white pumps. Also, I haven't seen the new movie adaptation of Hairspray, but I'm going to now because I was just reminded that she (Allison Janney) is in it. I <3 her.
  3. Has anyone seen Megan Hilty in Wicked? She's probably got the lungs, sure. But does she have the moxie to play Doralee? Has she got what it takes?
  4. I was all ready for bed but then I read this and now I'm wired.


And, of course, a clip for anyone who isn't quite sure what I'm talking about:


p.s. no, i still don't have a job. but i'm looking.
