Central Stage Theatre of County Kitsap continues its 2014-2015 season of musical theatre with the family favorite “Joseph and the Amazing Technicolor Dreamcoat” featuring a full cast and chorus of children from all corners of the county. This show is a spectacular, high energy production for families to enjoy together. The biblical story 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. His jealous brothers send him to Egypt where Joseph endures an incredible series of adventures.
Filled with youthful energy, “Joseph” combines a wide variety of musical styles – everything from country to calypso to rock ‘n’ roll – in a series of memorable musical numbers. Described as a high-voltage extravaganza, “Joseph” includes such classic songs as “Any Dream Will Do,” “Benjamin Calypso,” “Jacob and Sons/Joseph’s Coat,” “Song of the King (Seven Fat Cows)” and of course, “Go, Go, Go Joseph!”
