Alumni Association Sponsors Trip to See the Musical "9 to 5"

August 6, 2008

Leave the driving to us! Don't give those gas stations another thought. The Cerro Coso Community College Alumni Association is sponsoring a bus excursion on Saturday, October 18, 2008 to see the hit musical "9 to 5" - What a way to make a living. Tickets are only $150 per person and includes round trip bus excursion to the Ahmanson Theatre in Los Angles and mezzanine seating. The Cerro Coso Alumni Association is extending a special invitation to the community to participate in this day of fun and entertainment. This new musical comedy is based on the classic "9 to 5" hit movie and features a brand-new score by seven-time Grammy Award®-winner Dolly Parton that includes the blockbuster title song.

Emmy Award®-winner and Tony Award®-nominee Allison Janney stars as Violet Newstead, the super-efficient office manager who joins her fellow co-workers - frazzled divorcée Judy Bernly (Stephanie J. Block) and sexy secretary Doralee Rhodes (Megan Hilty in the role originated by Dolly Parton in the film) - to turn the tables on their "sexist, egotistical, lying, hypocritical, bigot" of a boss, Franklin Hart Jr. (Tony Award®-nominee Marc Kudisch). In a hilarious turn of events, Violet, Judy, and Doralee live out their wildest fantasy - giving their boss the boot! While Hart remains "otherwise engaged," the women give their workplace a dream makeover and rise to the top of the company that once looked at them as second-class citizens. A girl can scheme can't she?

Hurry! Space is limited. For more information and tickets, contact the Cerro Coso Alumni Relations Office at 384-6230.
