Wessex Musical Theatre wow audience with latest production of 9 to 5 the musical.

There’s still time to get your tickets for this absolute triumph of a musical!

Our roving reporter Emma (pictured below with some of the cast) was lucky enough to be in the audience tonight for 9 to 5 The Musical and came away completely blown away. From the first note to the final curtain call, this production delivered West End-quality performances, outstanding vocals, slick choreography, and plenty of laugh-out-loud moments.

Wessex Musical Theatre has raised the bar once again, bringing Dolly Parton’s much-loved musical to life with energy, heart, humour, and an incredibly talented cast. Whether you’re a musical theatre fan or simply looking for a fantastic night out, this is a show not to be missed.
