HBTI will present Joseph and the Amazing Technicolor Dreamcoat for the Summer 2022 season
by Beatrice Katz 09 Mar '22

09 Mar '22

Hathaway Brown Theatre Institute is thrilled to announce its summer 2022 production of: JOSEPH AND THE AMAZING TECHNICOLOR DREAMCOAT July 14-July 24, 2022 Music by Andrew Lloyd Webber Lyrics by Tim Rice Auditions for 2022 season: March 31st & April 1st (4-6, 6:30-8:30pm) Saturday April 2nd (5:30-8:30 pm) Call- backs Sunday April 3 (3-7 pm) Joseph and the Amazing Technicolor Dreamcoat (colloquially known as Joseph) is a sung-through musical by Tim Rice (lyrics) and Andrew Lloyd Webber (music). "Sha la la, Joseph, you’re doing fine! You and your dreamcoat, ahead of your time!” One of the most enduring shows of all time, *Joseph and the Amazing Technicolor Dreamcoat* is a reimagining of the Biblical story of Joseph, his father Jacob, eleven brothers and the coat of many colors. Told entirely through song with the help of a main character, the Narrator, the musical follows preferred son Joseph. After he is sold into slavery by his brothers, he ingratiates himself with Egyptian noble Potiphar, but ends up in jail after refusing the amorous advances of Potiphar’s wife. While imprisoned, Joseph discovers his ability to interpret dreams, and he soon finds himself in front of the mighty, but troubled, Elvis-inspired, Pharaoh. Joseph’s solution to Egypt’s famine elevates him to Pharaoh’s right-hand man and reunites him with his family. It was the first Lloyd Webber/Rice musical to be publicly performed and their first ever collaboration. *Joseph* started out as a 15 minute vocal cantata in the early 1970’s and became a full length musical in early 1980’s. It has received 6 Tony Award nominations including Best musical and Best original score. This magical musical is full of catchy songs in a variety of styles, from a parody of French ballads (“Those Canaan Days”), to country-western (“One More Angel in Heaven”) and calypso (“Benjamin Calypso”), along with the unforgettable classics “Any Dream Will Do” and “Close Every Door.” Hathaway Brown Theatre Institutes production will be directed and choreographed by Bebe Weinberg Katz, with musical Direction by John Krol. A full synopsis of the entire story is available on the Concord Theatrical website: Joseph <https://www.concordtheatricals.com/p/44899/joseph-and-the-amazing-technicol…> *Open auditions* will be held at the school on Thursday,3/31 and Friday 4/1 (4-6pm and 6:30-8:30 pm), Saturday 4/2 (5:30-8:30 pm) with dance auditions and callbacks on Sunday 4/3 (3-7pm). *Roles* are available for children, (grades 4-6) teens and young adults (7th grade – College.
