Dolly is busy writing "9 to 5" the Broadway musical. There has been no formal press about it, but Dolly keeps mentioning it in interviews. Last I saw her on CMT she said she was almost finished. Her website mentions nothing.
She also talks about it in the 9 to 5 Special Edition DVD. She states that she was having alot of fun writing songs for all the girls, especially Roz and was writing songs for Mr. Hart. She also mentions she was working with 9 to 5 film screenwriter Patty Resnick on the book. So there will most likely be some announcements soon. She'll probably produce the thing herself since she's mega-millionaire so she won;t have to worry about finding backers. Actually, I started a thread about casting 9 to 5 if you do a search.
I love me some Dolly.
On a related note-Dolly does want to produce a musical version of her life story for film, not Broadway and wants Kristin Chenowith to play her. They met in Washington at the July 4th concert a few years back and Dolly fell in love with her. It really would be inspired casting.
