Joseph and the Amazing Technicolor Dreamcoat tells the Biblical saga of a boy blessed with prophetic dreams, his jealous brothers, Egypt’s Pharoah, famine, forgiveness and reconciliation. Brought to vibrant life by Andrew Lloyd Webber and Tim Rice, this enduringly popular musical has charmed audiences around the world with its excitement, energy and engaging mix of musical styles—from county-western and calypso to pop and rock ‘n’ roll. Donny Osmond starred as Joseph both on stage and in the film version. Wrap your entire family in this glorious coat of many colors.
