Joseph and the Amazing Technicolor Dreamcoat is an all-music blockbuster - a colorful retelling of the story of Joseph, his coat of many colors and his amazing ability to interpret dreams.  Andrew Lloyd Webber and Tim Rice’s award-winning musical parable features a delightful array of song styles, from country-western and calypso to bubble-gum pop and rock and roll.

Joseph is his father Jacob’s favorite son, and Jacob gifts him with an amazing coat—all to the dismay of Josephs 11 brothers.  After the brothers sell Joseph into slavery, news of his incredible dream interpreting abilities reaches The Pharaoh, who appoints him to the number two post in Egypt.  But what will Joseph do when faced with the decision to help the brothers who betrayed him?  All will enjoy this family friendly, high-energy production complete with a message of hope and faith.
