Dolly Parton’s Broadway Dreams: Why She Wants to Hold a Lookalike Contest for Her Life Musical

  • by

Dolly Parton is interested in conducting a lookalike contest for a specific reason. She is looking for individuals who closely resemble her, regardless of the era in which she was famous. If you fit this description, there is a possibility that she may consider casting you in a Broadway musical that tells the story of her life.

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

She expresses that performing on Broadway and having her show debut on Broadway has always been a significant goal for her. She wants to ensure that she accomplishes this goal while she is still alive and able to actively participate in it.

By doing this, she will have the opportunity to make artistic choices, such as the unconventional decision to allow individuals from diverse backgrounds to audition for the role of Dolly, regardless of their level of experience in musical theater.

Parton mentions that she could potentially lead a competition called "Finding Dolly," which aims to find performers for three distinct versions of the main character. These versions include a young Dolly, a Dolly from her earlier years, and an older Dolly.

According to Parton, they will be holding auditions to discover talented individuals. Parton believes that this process will also be enjoyable for the audience. The search for these individuals can lead to unexpected places. They could be someone who has never performed on stage or perhaps someone involved in a small local theater. Regardless, the quest to find these individuals will add an element of excitement to the whole experience.

Dolly Parton has previously mentioned the possibility of a musical based on her life during various interviews. In her most recent conversation with People, she expressed her desire to have the show ready by around 2025.

The country legend has multiple career aspirations that she is actively pursuing. In January of last year, Parton disclosed to Taste of Country that she has a desire to establish her own television network in the near future.
