Dolly Parton’s Broadway Dreams: Why She Wants to Hold a Lookalike Contest

  • by

Dolly Parton is interested in organizing a lookalike contest for a specific reason. If you happen to closely resemble Dolly Parton, regardless of which stage of her career, she might consider selecting you to be a part of a Broadway production that tells her life story.

Indeed, Parton has disclosed to People that she is currently engaged in the process of transforming her life story into a musical.

She expresses that going to Broadway and premiering her own show has always been a significant goal for her. It is something she has been determined to accomplish for a long time. She wants to ensure that she achieves this goal while she is still alive and able to actively participate in it.

In this manner, she will have the opportunity to make artistic choices, such as the unconventional decision to extend casting opportunities to individuals from diverse backgrounds, rather than solely considering those with extensive experience in musical theater.

Parton has mentioned that she could potentially lead a competition called "Finding Dolly," where they will search for talented individuals to play three different versions of the main character. These versions include a young Dolly, a Dolly from her earlier years, and an older Dolly.

Parton explains that they will be holding auditions and using various methods to discover talented individuals. This process is not only exciting for the participants, but also for the audience. The search for these individuals may lead them to unexpected places, such as those who have never performed on stage or have only been involved in local theater. Searching for these hidden talents will add an element of enjoyment to the overall experience.

Dolly Parton has mentioned the possibility of a musical based on her life before, mentioning it in various interviews. She expressed her desire to see the show produced by "late '25," as stated in her recent conversation with People magazine.

The renowned country singer has multiple career aspirations that she is actively pursuing. Parton shared with Taste of Country in January that she has a goal of establishing her own television network in the near future.
