Johnson High School Theatre Presents 9 to 5
Johnson’s Fine Arts Department is proud to present 9 to 5—the smash film Dolly Parton starred in – now a Tony winning musical that was met with acritical acclaim. Based on the 20th Century Fox movie, 9 to 5: The Musical follows three unlikely friends in the late 1970s; Violet Newstead, an uptight office manager; Judy Bernly, a recent divorcee; and Doralee Rhodes, a married secretary who Hart can’t keep his hands off of, as they turn the tables on their "sexist, egotistical, lying, hypocritical, bigot" of a boss, Franklin Hart, Jr.
The musical explores the mundaneness of working in an office where men are promoted over women for the sole reason of “she’s a girl” and the boss takes all the credit for their work. If you had a boss like this, wouldn’t you daydream about getting even with him and running the company better than he ever could? Join in the fun of watching a great story with amazing songs and music.
Below are the trailer for our musical along with some footage from the Broadway show:

Ian's Cup Soccer:
Ian's Foundation was created in the memory of Ian Fincke. Ian tragically passed away at the age of 16, in October of 2008 as the result of fatal wounds sustained during a skateboarding accident. Ian was a previous student at Hardy Oak Elementary, Barbara Bush Middle School and both Reagan and Johnson High Schools. The foundation was formed to advance the safety and welfare of San Antonio youth through education and scholarship awards. To date over $29,000 in scholarships has been awarded. Ian's Foundation also promotes helmet safety in the San Antonio and surrounding area and supports STRAPS (South Texas Regional and Paralympic Sports). STRAPS was inspired by Ian's Foundation as a way to allow anyone in San Antonio with physical disabilities the opportunity to enjoy the game of soccer. You can read more about the foundation at www.IansFoundation.org.
Ian’s Foundation will be offering an annual spring soccer clinic for the San Antonio youth as one of their major fundraisers for the Ian's Cup scholarship fund (formerly known as The Fincke Cup). The clinic will be held on Sunday, February 28th at the Mays YMCA from 2-4PM (with registration from 1:30-2:00). The cost of the clinic is $30 if pre-registered and $35 the day of the clinic. It will include a 2hr clinic as well as a 2016 Ian's Cup t-shirt (while supplies last). The deadline for t-shirt pre-orders and pre-registration for the soccer clinic to ensure a 2016 Ian's Cup t-shirt is Monday, February 15th but pre-registration for the clinic will remain open through Saturday, February 27th at 6PM. Trainers will include local high school coaches, club trainers and high school soccer players from Johnson and Reagan, as they must volunteer at one of the foundation's community service events to be eligible for a scholarship.
Please see the attached documents for more information.
