Salón Varietés Joseph and his Technicolor Dreamcoat
@Source: euroweeklynews.com
Tickets are on sale for the Salón Varietés Theatre production of the smash-hit musical Joseph and his Technicolor Dreamcoat playing until on Sunday, March 30. Joseph and the Amazing Technicolor Dreamcoat, the high-spirited musical by Andrew Lloyd Webber and Tim Rice, retells the biblical story of Joseph from the Book of Genesis. Joseph, favoured by his father Jacob, receives a dazzling multicoloured coat, sparking jealousy among his eleven brothers. They end up selling him into slavery in Egypt, where his ability to interpret dreams propels him from prisoner to Pharaoh’s advisor. As a famine strikes, Joseph’s foresight saves Egypt, earning him power and prestige. His brothers, unaware of his identity, arrive seeking aid. After testing their character, particularly Judah’s, Joseph reveals himself, forgiving them in a tearful reunion. The musical, known for its catchy score blending pop, rock, and country, explores themes of envy, resilience, and redemption. First performed in 1968 as a short school production, it evolved into a global hit, celebrated for its playful storytelling and, of course, its iconic coat. Starring Jacob Botha as Joseph, with Jimmy Millar directing and designing the choreography, James Burn directing the music, and Ruth Norris as narrator, the show will be a sellout. It runs until Sunday, March 30, nightly at 7.30pm, except for Sunday when it plays at 7pm. There are 2pm matinees on the Saturday and Sunday at 2pm. Tickets are available from the theatre box office and cost €25.
