2025/26 Season

Working Girl

World-Premiere Musical

Working Girl

OCT – DEC 2025 | Mandell Weiss Theatre

Music and Lyrics by Cyndi Lauper | Book by Theresa Rebeck

Based on the Twentieth Century Fox Motion Picture written by Kevin Wade

Directed by Christopher Ashley

Tess McGill is a Staten Island secretary with big dreams and even bigger ideas, but when her scheming boss Katharine Parker steals one, Tess decides to take matters into her own hands. With Katharine unexpectedly out of town, Tess seizes the chance to prove herself, making a bold business move that could change her life forever. With some help from her savvy friends and a charming businessman, she’s got one shot to pull it off – before the boss returns!

This sharp and hilarious adaptation of the iconic 1988 film features an exhilarating original score by the legendary Cyndi Lauper, a smart, fresh book from award-winning playwright Theresa Rebeck, and direction by our own Tony Award-winning Christopher Ashley.

Working Girl is the ultimate corporate Cinderella story that’s just as much about the power of friendship as it is about chasing ambition and success. Don’t miss it.
