Music reviews of 9 To 5: The Musical (Original Broadway Cast Recording)
Music Review: Dolly Made the Broadway CrossOver Very Well!
Rating: 5 Stars
First - let me tell you I loved the movie when it originally came out and now on DVD with their special edition. And who doesn't remember tapping to the base-beat of Dolly's NUMBER ONE hit '9 to5'? Remember that familiar click click click click click of the old fashion typewriters with that piano base-beat to then culminate in that tiny little 'ding' of the old carage return typewriters?
Well...lets just say I am impressed with Dolly. Just when you thought she done it all - she does it more! She made the transition from screen to the Broadway stage magically. When you read the liner notes in the CD - (or read the original Theatre Program) you'll see that DOlly was shocked that anyone asked her to compose the songs for this concept of a film turned Broadway Musical. She never composed a Broadway show/musical before and had no idea what she was getting into.
So as she says in her own words - she sat watching the movie - sat with the original script in hand - and started to think "..when would a song need to be sung to move the story or explain the characters and whpo they are...". She did it!
I got to see the 'world premiere' in Los Angeles, CA before it actually went to Broadway - and it was amazing. Impressive 80's look and style and costumes with a set that rotated in cubicle configurations for every office scene. A great technical production with amazing visualizations of lighting and sets.
From the re-dressing and updating the original "9 to 5" song to the opening ensemble number "Around Here" - the music, song and characters will keeping to-tapping and laughing all at the same time - all the way through.
Dolly even squeezed in one of her own previously release songs "Backwwods Barbie" that is the perfect sentiment for the Doralee character she played in the original film. However all the girls get the their shinning numbers with each of their ever-famous 'dreams' of killing the Boss sequences - with "Dance O' Death", "Cowgirl's Revenge" and "Potion Notion"
Now the talent in this production - wow - Stephanie J. Block (as the Jane Fonda Character), Allison Janney (as the Lilly Tomlin character) and Megan Hilty (of WICKED Fame playing the Dolly Parton character) were three women who you just could hear (and see) that they were having a great time! The score itself was extremely complimentary to the songs and it was very updated in terms of the chops and beats and rythms.
Alison Janney singing "One Of The Boys" is one of my favorite songs - and who knew she was not only a talented and funny actress, but can she command a song and sparkle in dance as well. My other favorites songs include - "5 to 9", "Always a Woman", "Change It" and "Let Love Grow"
Overall a great Broadway score, Soundtrack and Musical. You should see it if you get the chance. The packaging and liner notes are very well worth the read and it is filled with pics of the original stage production too! You'll love it! A must for a modern collector of modern Broadway shows! 6-9-10
