Talk about a true performer!
Dolly Parton‘s 9 to 5: The Musical premiered in Los Angeles Tuesday night with some minor glitches, but one big surprise.
The Diva was there set to introduce the show!
Dolly welcomed the audience and engaged them for a bit, and when one devoted fan called out “I love you Dolly,” she quickly responded “I told you to wait in the truck!”
She then added that since it was the first showing there might be “some stopping and starting”, however she promised to ├óΓé¼┼ôget up and do a show if that happens.├óΓé¼┬¥
The first act started and about halfway through, the moving set came to a stop.
After a moment of silence, Parton’s voice sounded through saying, “Uh Oh”.
That’s when she kept her promise, got on stage, answered some audience questions and started to perform!
She did 9 to 5 and I Will Always Love You.
What a trooper!!!
Miz Parton also said that her favorite song might be Backwoods Barbie, but added that she “loves all the songs like my children and just like my children, I expect them to support me someday.”
The show then started up again and all was well.
Wish we could have been there!
