Director Luis Castro and actor Peyton Wambaugh joined Peter Goodman and Jamie Bronstein to preview Las Cruces Community Theatre's production of Dolly Parton's 9 to 5, the season finale of LCCCT's 63rd season, opening May 28th and running through June 14th. Castro, who has wanted to direct the show for years, described it as a love letter to the strong women in his life, particularly his mother, and spoke about why its themes of workplace inequality feel as relevant today as they did in 1979. Wambaugh, who plays the Dolly Parton role of Doralee Rhodes, discussed drawing on her natural Texas accent and the relationships built among the cast. The conversation also touched on the particular challenges of directing a musical with 21 cast members, Castro's upcoming production of Lin-Manuel Miranda's In the Heights for next season, and the importance of the arts at a time when live theater is under financial pressure. Tickets are available at lcctnm.org.
