Originally written more than forty years ago as a 30-minute pop cantata for performance in schools, Joseph was one of Tim Rice and Andrew Lloyd Webber's first collaborations. Fueled by early praise and a desire to expand the show, Rice and Webber modified the script, and Joseph was professionally staged as a full-scale musical in 1972. It achieved worldwide acclaim on professional stages and tours, and quickly became a regular fixture on amateur stages and in church performances. Jason Donovan, Donny Osmond, Phillip Schofield, Gareth Gates and Lee Mead have all played the title role of Joseph in major productions.
