Joseph and the Amazing Technicolor Dreamcoat.
Showing tonight, Saturday and Sunday is Andrew Lloyd Webber and Tim Rice’s famous musical starring, ‘Any Dream Will Do’ winner, Craig Chalmers.
Based on the “coat of many colours” story of Joseph from the Hebrew Bible (Book of Genesis), this light-hearted show was first presented as a fifteen-minute pop cantata at Colet Court School in London on 1 March 1968. It was adapted as a musical film (starring Donny Osmond) in 1999. Joseph was particularly recognized as one of the few major British musical theatre shows with hardly any spoken dialogue, being sung-through almost completely.
