Joseph and the Amazing Technicolor Dreamcoat is
a rainbow ride through biblical Egypt on the wings of Andrew
Lloyd Webber''s (Cats, Phantom of the Opera, Evita) uplifting
music and Tim Rice''s (Oscar-winning lyricist of Disney''s
Aladdin) humor and poetry of lyricist.
This irresistible musical about the trials and triumphs of
Joseph, Israel''s favorite son, paints a picture of betrayal and
hardship, prophecy and forgiveness. Beginning its life in 1968
as a 20-minute "pop cantata" for a school Easter concert,
"Joseph" was revived and expanded in the mid-''70s and eventually
made its way to Broadway in 1982. This lively interpretation of
the biblical story of Joseph of Canaan has gone on to charm
audiences around the world with its excitement, energy, and
eclectic musical variety.
The Old Testament tale of Joseph and his coat of many colors
gets a splashy, vigorous treatment with an energetic cast, Las
Vegas-style glitz, and catchy, eclectic songs, including "Any
Dream Will Do," "Close Every Door," the peppy "Go, Go, Go
Joseph," and various bits of country, calypso, and Elvis.
