9 to 5 is a high-energy, empowering comedy about three women who work together in a corporate office environment, each facing their own struggles with a sexist, egotistical boss. When they unite to take matters into their own hands, they spark a revolution that transforms their workplace and their lives. Filled with humor, show-stopping dance numbers, and a strong message of female empowerment, the show celebrates friendship, resilience, and the pursuit of justice.

Order tickets and check out which students are in which cast (plan to see BOTH!).

The Friday, March 7 show will feature professional American Sign Language (ASL) interpreters and our RHS ASL honors club will be on hand to help with ticketing, concessions, and ushering. Spread the word!!
