Near West Theatre presents: JOSEPH AND THE Amazing technicolor dreamcoat November 18-December 11, 2016 Lyrics by Tim Rice Music by Andrew Lloyd Webber Near West universalizes this Judeo-Christian story and puts a 2016 stamp on it. JOSEPH LIKE YOU'VE NEVER SEEN IT BEFORE! Before Andrew Lloyd Webber's JESUS CHRIST SUPERSTAR, EVITA AND PHANTOM OF THE OPERA there was JOSEPH & THE AMAZING TECHNICOLOR DREAMCOAT, still one of the top 5 most performed musicals in the world. Joseph is his father's favorite. Joseph is a gifted psychic. His eleven brothers are very, VERY JEALOUS! It's all here: favoritism, betrayal, attempted murder, fame, famine and...forgiveness. This rock show is turbo-driven family entertainment. Get your tickets early for NWT'S HOLIDAY PRODUCTION, 2016. Sure to sell out!!!
