 Joseph and The Amazing Technicolor Dreamcoat is a fun show for audiences of all ages.  As evidenced by the extended applause at the end of the show, and the many instances of audience delight displayed during the production, despite some questionable directorial decisions, the cast and crews efforts were appreciated.

But the really ingenious element in this show is the dancing computer visuals by Brittany Merenda, plus sets by Sheri Prough DeVol and lights by Steve Shack. Together, they transform ordinary set pieces into a bejeweled production that would make the scenic design of Webber's subsequent "Phantom of the Opera" look ordinary in comparison.

Looking past the small faults and adding together the positive virtues of this production it is still well worth the price of the ticket to see. The chorus numbers alone make it worthwhile. Go, Go, Go see this show.

Sibling rivalry has never been more deliciously portrayed. Joseph and the Amazing Technicolor Dreamcoat, directed by Scott Spence, now playing at the Beck Center’s Senney Theater (the larger one), offers a festive family musical that skips the traditional holiday motifs (candy canes, gingerbread men, jingle bells and St. Nick) in favor of straight shots of comic joy.
