9 to 5
The 1980’s blockbuster comedy starring Dolly Parton, Jane Fonda, and Lily Tomlin as women who turn the tables on their sexist boss gets the stage musical treatment. It’s a show at Rivertown Theaters for the Performing Arts that promises to be a rollicking good time, from Sept. 13-29. Information, RivertownTheaters.com.
Measure for Measure
From Sept. 10-29 at the New Orleans Museum of Art’s Great Hall, the NOLA Project will be performing Shakespeare’s classic “Measure for Measure.” The story of a religious purist taking over morally debauched Vienna now feels more relevant than ever. Information, NOLAProject.com.
