LONDON

 

 

With a crash of drums and a flash of light Andrew Lloyd Webber’s musical Joseph And The Amazing Technicolor Dreamcoat has returned to the West End with its dazzling coat of many colours and Lee Mead in the leading role.

Andrew Lloyd Webber and Tim Rice's colourful retelling of the famous biblical story about Joseph, his uncanny dream-deciphering abilities and his flashy jacket, is filled with popular songs, including Close Every Door and Any Dream Will Do.

Joseph And The Amazing Technicolor Dreamcoat tells the story of Joseph, son of Jacob and one of 12 brothers. As his father's favourite, his jealous brothers turn against him and sell him to passing merchants. This is just the start of an adventure that will see him rise to greatness, from slavery to becoming the Pharaoh’s right hand man. Full of drama, action and fun Joseph And The Amazing Technicolor Dreamcoat is an exciting musical for all the family.

Lloyd Webber’s musical Joseph And The Amazing Technicolor Dreamcoat was written as a short piece for Colet Court School in Hammersmith and first performed in March 1968. Following extra performances it was recorded as an album, but did not receive a professional production until 1972 when it was staged at the Edinburgh Festival.

Lee Mead, the lead of this new production of Joseph And The Amazing Technicolor Dreamcoat, was chosen by public vote through the BBC's reality television programme Any Dream Will Do.

Jenna Lee James, who plays the Narrator, was the runner up in the Voice Of Musical Theatre 2005 and has previously appeared in We Will Rock You in the West End, playing the roles of Meatloaf and Scaramouche.

Joseph And The Amazing Technicolor Dreamcoat also features The Carmel Thomas Youth Singers as the onstage children's choir.

 

 

 

Les Misérables is the famous musical adaptation of Victor Hugo's great humanitarian novel of one man's determined survival in the face of another's vengeful persecution. Set amid the social and political struggles of 19th century France, it tells the story of former prisoner Jean Valjean, who is pursued for decades by his policeman nemesis, Javert.

The dramatic score includes numbers such as On My Own, One More Day, and Do You Hear the People Sing?

Les Misérables has now celebrated 23 years in London, making it the capital's longest-running musical. The show first opened at the Barbican in 1985 before transferring to the Palace later that year, where it remained for nearly 20 years. It opened in its present home, the Queen's, in 2004. The show is now one of the world's best-loved musicals and has been produced in 38 countries and translated into 21 different languages. A Broadway production opened in 1987 and won eight Tony Awards.

The current London cast of Les Misérables includes Drew Sarich as Valjean, a role he has previously played on Broadway, and Earl Carpenter as Javert. Carpenter is a hugely experienced British musical theatre star who is best known for playing the title role in another long-running musical, The Phantom Of The Opera. His other London credits include Sunset Boulevard and Beauty And The Beast.
