Dolly Parton’s Broadway Dream: 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, whether it's from any phase of her professional life, she might consider selecting you to be a part of a Broadway production based on her life.

Yes, it is true. Parton is currently working on transforming her life story into a musical, as she disclosed to People magazine.

She expresses that one of her long-standing goals has been to go on Broadway and have her own show there. It is something she has been thinking about for a long time and she wants to make sure she accomplishes it while she is still alive and able to be actively involved in it.

In this manner, 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 previous experience in musical theater.

Parton suggests that she might take charge of a competition called "Finding Dolly," which aims to find suitable actors for three distinct versions of the main character. The search will be conducted for the roles of "young Dolly," "early years Dolly," and "older Dolly," according to the singer's explanation.

"We will be holding auditions and searching for talent using various methods. I believe this will also be enjoyable for the audience," Parton explains. "You never know where we might discover these individuals. They could be completely new to performing or have prior experience in a local theater. Our search for talent will be an exciting part of the process."

Parton has mentioned the concept of a musical based on her life before, mentioning it in various interviews. She expressed her desire to have the show ready by "late '25," as stated in her recent discussion with People magazine.

The renowned country singer has expressed her desire to fulfill a number of career aspirations, one of which is establishing her own television network. In a previous interview with Taste of Country, Parton shared her plans of making this dream come true in the near future.
