STRANGE IDEA. AND THE MUSICAL OF ’9 TO 5′ KINDA BOMBED. FROM CNN…..
Dolly Parton’s hoping to make a “Joyful Noise” on Broadway one of these days with a musical about her life.

She tells CNN that she’s currently working to make that happen – and she already has an idea on who could play her on the Great White Way.

“I’m working on a musical about my life and I would love for it to get to Broadway,” Parton, 65, told CNN. “It’s certain to get on stage somewhere. I thought it would be a great way to tell my life story because you can get so many more things in a song. You can tell so many more stories [that way] than [with] just dialogue.”

The country legend says there are a lot of people who could portray her in the musical, but there are nonetheless some key requirements.

“I think on stage you’ve got to have a great voice and someone who’s great on stage,” Parton said. “I think Kristin Chenoweth is spectacular. ‘Cause she’s little and she’s short.”
