THEATRE EvEnTs
Thru August 4 JOSEPH AND THE AMAZING
TECHNICOLOR DREAMCOAT This energetic
musical is a resonant parable filled with delightful
song. It is the biblical story of Joseph
and his dazzling coat of many colors by Andrew
Lloyd Webber and Tim Rice. The story
of Joseph is probably one of the best known
biblical stories; a story about jealousy, forgiveness,
and the power of dreams. That sounds
serious, but with the skillful direction provided
by Producer/Director Tod Booth and the imaginative
choreography of James Kinney, it is fast,
furious and funny. Read EU’s review: www.eujacksonville.com.
