Art imitates Life with Upcoming Production of 9 to 5 on August 30th and September 1st.
Belinda Humberstone is looking forward to setting the Brolga Theatre on fire during the upcoming Macabre Theatre stage production musical ‘9 to 5’!
After a long history of singing Country Rock in cabarets, bands and at Tamworth, Belinda says she was naturally drawn to the musical 9 to 5 which was written by country music legend Dolly Parton.
“It’s so fun to be playing the character Violet, who is a mum, widow, and full-time worker trying to make it in a male dominated world.”
Set in the 80’s Belinda says there are lots of naughty, sexist themes based around three lead women who fight to overcome career adversity and succeed despite their own trialing personal lives.
Belinda, (currently separated herself), says that at times the themes were almost a confronting reflection of her own recent life. Almost a case of life imitating art and art imitating life. When asked to indulge us further Belinda says, “You’ll just have to come to the musical and see for yourself!”
There are only 2 scheduled performances, one on Friday night August 30th and a matinee on Sunday September 1st.
Bookings can be made at the Brolga Theatre website.
