It's time to pour yourself a cup of ambition.

Showbiz Queenstown’s announced it’ll stage 9 to 5: The Musical next May, featuring a rip-roaring score from the queen of country, Dolly Parton.

Pushed to boiling point, three female co-workers — Violet, Judy and Doralee — concoct a plan to get even with the sexist, egotistical, lying, hypocritical bigot they call their boss.

In a hilarious turn of events, the women live out their wildest fantasy; giving their boss the boot.

Inspired by the iconic 1980s movie, the blockbuster musical comedy premiered in Los Angeles in 2008 and opened on Broadway the following year, receiving 15 Drama Desk Award nominations — the most received by a production in a single year — along with four Tony Award nominations.

Showbiz is now on the hunt for its next creative team.

They’re looking for a director, music director, choreographer and production manager — applications close on August 31.
