The
Biblical saga 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. When he is sold into
slavery by his jealous brothers and taken to Egypt, Joseph endures a
series of adventures in which his spirit and humanity are continually
challenged. He is purchased by Potiphar where thwarting advances from
Potiphar’s wife lands him in jail. When news of Joseph’s gift to
interpret dreams reaches the Pharaoh (wryly and riotously depicted as
Elvis), Joseph is well on his way to becoming second in command.
Eventually his brothers, having suffered greatly, unknowingly find
themselves groveling at the feet of the brother they betrayed but no
longer recognize. After testing their integrity, Joseph reveals himself
leading to a heartfelt reconciliation of the sons of Israel. Set to an
engaging cornucopia of musical styles, from country-western and calypso
to bubble-gum pop and rock ‘n’ roll, this Old Testament tale emerges
both timely and timeless.
