Marquette, MIApril 8, 2026 – The Northern Michigan University Department of Theatre & Dance is presenting the musical “9 to 5” this week and next on campus.

Kristin Beth Ludwig, Director & Choreographer, spoke about the production with Mark & Walt in the Morning.

Ludwig said the show is a musical interpretation of the 1980 comedy film “9 to 5” that starred Dolly Parton, Lily Tomlin and Jane Fonda.  She explained that the movie was adapted into a musical several years ago with a score featuring songs penned by Parton.

Ludwig added that while the presentation of the story, set in the late ’70s/early ’80s, may seem somewhat dated on some levels, the story still resonates with a contemporary audience.

The run starts this Thursday evening, and tickets can be purchased at nmu.universitytickets.com.
