Peterborough Theatre Guild Presents: Joseph and the Amazing Technicolor Dreamcoat (Apr. 26)

  • Peterborough, Ontario Canada (map)

Peterborough Theatre Guild Presents: Joseph and the Amazing Technicolor Dreamcoat.

Told entirely through song with the help of a main character Narrator, the musical follows preferred son Joseph.

After being 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.

The 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.”

Appropriate for all audiences and groups, Joseph is performed hundreds of times a year by schools across North America, the U.K. and around the world.
