The Biblical saga of Joseph and his coat of many colors comes to vibrant life in this delightful musical parable. Joseph, his father's favorite son, is a boy blessed with prophetic dreams. When he is sold into slavery by his jealous brothers and taken to Egypt, Joseph endures a series of adventures in which his spirit and humanity are continually challenged. When news of Joseph's gift to interpret dreams reaches the Pharaoh (wryly and riotously depicted as Elvis), Joseph is well on his way to becoming second in command. Eventually his brothers, having suffered greatly, unknowingly find themselves groveling at the feet of the brother they betrayed but no longer recognize.
This show is an entertaining musical of Biblical proportions that is sure to be enjoyed by the whole family. We are expecting Joseph to be a big success, so get your tickets now. In fact, the Sunday matinees are now starting to fill up! Joseph is headlined by Stephen Jack, Patty Rowell, and Sarah Kumengi and features Clifford Butler, Adam Munoz, Blake Yelavich and many more.
I do not know if you have reviewed this musical yet. I saw it on opening nite. It was terrific. All characters were very good, some great, and the staging and costumes impressive, but Patty Rowell was fantastic. Her strong pure voice always delights; her stage presence and grace forever adds just the right touch to any character she plays. No one should miss this production.
