JOSEPH AND THE AMAZING TECHNICOLOR DREAMCOAT Tour Coming to Kennedy Center in January
The Kennedy Center presents Joseph and the Amazing Technicolor Dreamcoat starring husband-and-wife team Diana DeGarmo as Narrator and Ace Young as Joseph from December 16, 2014 to January 4, 2015 in the Kennedy Center Opera House. Directed and choreographed by Tony Award-winner Andy Blankenbuehler, Joseph and the Amazing Technicolor is the first collaboration of composer Andrew Lloyd Webber (Jesus Christ Superstar, Phantom of the Opera, Cats) and lyricist Tim Rice (Jesus Christ Superstar, Disney's The Lion King). The press opening night is Thursday, December 18, 2014 at 7:30 p.m.
Broadway and television star Diana DeGarmo (Narrator) and Broadway star Ace Young (Joseph) head up the cast, which also features Paul Castree as Simeon, William Thomas Evans as Jacob/Potiphar, Brian Golub as Reuben, Max Kumangai as Judah, and Ryan Williams as Pharaoh.
Ace Young and Diana DeGarmo first met when they shared the Broadway stage in the 2009 revival of Hair. "I am so excited to be starring as 'Joseph' alongside Diana," said Ace. "It's great to be back on stage! I too am so excited to star alongside Ace in the very role I once looked up to years ago as a child in the choir," added Diana.
Retelling the Biblical story of Joseph, his 11 brothers, and the coat of many colors, this magical musical is full of unforgettable songs including "Any Dream Will Do," "Close Every Door," and "Go, Go, Go Joseph." A blend of pop, country, and rock, Joseph and the Amazing Technicolor Dreamcoat is a family musical about the trials and triumphs of Joseph, Israel's favorite son.
Produced by the Independent Presenters Network, the tour features scenic design by Beowulf Boritt, costume design by Jennifer Caprio, lighting design by Howell Binkley, sound design by John Shivers and David Patridge, projection and video design by Daniel Brodie, music supervision by David Kreppel, and music direction by Wayne Green.
