Dolly Parton Announces Broadway Musical Based on Her Life


Featuring a mixture of new and old songs, Dolly Parton’s new musical, ‘Hello, I’m Dolly,’ is slated for a 2026 Broadway premiere

In a press conference at CMA Fest on Thursday, Parton noted that Hello, I’m Dolly is not a jukebox musical, meaning it won’t just feature her past hits reworked as showtunes. Speers said in a statement, “I first had the pleasure of working with Dolly Parton in 2019 when she trusted us to develop a new version of her musical 9 to 5 for London’s West End. Neil Diamond, Alicia Keys, Michael Jackson, Carole King and Gloria and Emilio Estefan have all featured their stories and songs in musicals.
