Parton was nominated for an Academy Award for the "9 to 5" single. The single went to number one on both the Billboard Hot 100 and Hot Country Singles charts, was certified Platinum by the RIAA and was nominated for four Grammy Awards, winning two. Her new album, "Backwoods Barbie", was released in February 2008. The title track is a song written for the character of Doralee from Parton's score for the musical.

Background

A reading of the material for the musical was given on January 19, 2007 (coincidentally Parton's 61st birthday), with a cast including Tracey Ullman, Alice Ripley and Megan Hilty, with Norm Lewis, Marc Kudisch, Amy Hohn and an ensemble. A revised draft was tested in a week-long workshop beginning on June 20, 2007, with an industry presentation on June 28, 2007 in New York City. The workshop cast included the previously mentioned principal cast, along with Bebe Neuwirth as Roz and Andy Karl, among others.
