Joseph And The Amazing Technicolor Dreamcoat [DVD] [1999]

Product Information

The brothers’ jealousy is compounded by Joseph's dreams, which suggest that he is destined to rule over them ("Joseph's Dreams"). To stop this from happening, they try to kill him by throwing him down a pit, before changing their minds and selling him as a slave to some passing Ishmaelites. The Narrator comments on how powerless Joseph was to stop this ("Poor, Poor Joseph"). Any Dream Will Do second runner-up Lewis Bradley will play 'Joseph' while Lee Mead is on Holiday".

It might all be familiar, unthreatening fare, but it excels at its job. As the programme says: if it ain’t broke.

For those who are unfamiliar with the Old Testament, Joseph and the Amazing Technicolor Dreamcoat (aka Joseph ) follows the story of Joseph (Euan Fistrovic Doidge), son of Jacob, a polygamist with 12 sons. Joseph has the ability to see and interpret dreams and is his father’s favourite. Jacob gifts Joseph a multi-coloured coat as a marker of his affection. This causes jealousy amongst his brothers, and they seek revenge by selling him into slavery. The book itself is a rather straightforward, somewhat camp, musical retelling based on The Children’s Wonder Book of Bible Stories, that aims to inspire children to dream and follow who they are. Despite this intention, this production leaves much to be desired.
