We’ve all been out with our families this weekend, to see a...

9 to 5 The Musical: Review

The Adelaide season of 9 to 5 The Musical doesn’t start until October 2022 but I was lucky enough to catch a sneak peek of the Brisbane opening earlier in the year and the show had the whole audience singing, laughing and toe tapping from the moment it started.
