Told entirely through song with the help of the Narrator, Joseph and the Amazing Technicolor Dreamcoat follows the story of Jacob’s favourite son Joseph and his eleven brothers. After being sold into slavery by the brothers, he ingratiates himself with Egyptian noble Potiphar, but ends up in jail after refusing the 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 showman, the Pharaoh. As Joseph strives to resolve Egypt’s famine, he becomes Pharaoh’s right-hand man and eventually reunites with his family.

Tim Lawson, Producer, said “I am beyond thrilled to be presenting this brand-new, acclaimed production of Joseph at The Regent Theatre this summer. I know it will capture the hearts and souls of audiences of all ages, as it did during both recent sell out seasons at the London Palladium where it was the hottest ticket in town. We all need colour and joy in our lives, and this dazzling production delivers both in spades.” Tim Lawson creates, produces and presents first-class musicals and family entertainment in over 450 cities in 45 countries, smashing box office records multiple times on Broadway, in London and beyond. In Australia, Tim has produced Ian Fleming’s Chitty Chitty Bang Bang, Fiddler on the Roof and A Chorus Line and created Circus 1903, Le Noir and The Illusionists franchise. Tim is currently working with George RR Martin on a world premiere stage production of Game of Thrones.
