[title]Joseph and the Amazing Technicolor Dreamcoat has been adored by musical theatre fans all over the world since its first full West End production in 1973.
Now is your chance to experience the multi-award winning production Joseph and the Amazing Technicolor Dreamcoat as it premieres at Melbourne’s stunning Regent Theatre this November. This will be the first time this timeless show has had a full-scale production in Australia in over 30 years.
Joseph and the Amazing Technicolor Dreamcoat’s cast is filled with all star Australian talent and maximum class: Euan Fistrovic Doidge (Priscilla Queen of the Desert and Les Misérables) will be playing Joseph; Paulini (the Bodyguard Musical and Saturday Night Fever ) will be the Narrator, and AFL legend Shane Crawford will play Pharaoh. Hilarious performer Trevor Ashley (Hairspray and Les Misérables) is also along for the ride in performances from December 27 until January 1 2023.
First conceived by Andrew Lloyd-Webber and lyricist Tim Rice prior to their breakthrough with Jesus Christ Superstar, Joseph and the Amazing Technicolor Dreamcoat follows the story of Joseph from the Book of Genesis, who gets sold into slavery in Egypt by his jealous brothers and works his way up to become the Pharaoh's right-hand man. Several of its songs have gone on to become pop and musical theatre classics including 'Any Dream Will Do', 'Go Go Go Joseph' and ‘Close Every Door to Me’. The show was ground breaking for taking a slightly irreverent approach, with songs that are pastiches of popular music genres.
Joseph and the Amazing Technicolor Dreamcoat opens November 13 and must leave January 29 2023. Tickets start from $59 per adult and are available now.
