Theatre Program to Present Joseph and the Amazing Technicolor Dreamcoat, Oct. 9-12

Final rehearsals are taking place today as the Waconia High School Theatre Program prepares to present its fall musical, Joseph and the Amazing Technicolor Dreamcoat. 

First premiering in the 1970s, the show was nominated for six Tony awards, made into a 1999 feature film starring Donny Osmond, and continues to delight audiences around the world today. Powerhouse senior Narrators Abby Rausch and Bennett Trapp will lead audiences through this campy retelling of the Biblical story of Joseph, sold into slavery by his 11 brothers and eventually becoming Pharaoh’s right-hand man in Egypt. 

Featuring senior Oliver McKeever as Joseph and junior Miles Tyhurst as the Pharaoh, this show is stuffed with 30 additional high schoolers, an on-stage orchestra, and kids’ chorus made of children from local elementary schools. Funny, campy, and family-friendly, this show runs just 90-minutes with an intermission. 

Tickets for one of the five performances can be purchased online at https://cur8.com/25743/project/132232
