The Biblical saga of Joseph and his coat of many colors comes to vibrant life in this musical parable.
Joseph, his father's favorite son, is a boy blessed with prophetic
dreams. When he is sold into slavery by his jealous brothers and taken
to Egypt, Joseph endures a series of adventures in which his spirit and
humanity are continually challenged. He is purchased by Potiphar and
soon thwarting the advances of Potiphar's wife lands him in jail. When
news of Joseph's gift to interpret dreams reaches the Pharaoh (wryly
depicted as Elvis), Joseph is on his way to becoming second in command.
Eventually his brothers, having suffered greatly, unknowingly find
themselves groveling at the feet of the brother they betrayed but no
longer recognize. After testing their integrity, Joseph reveals
himself, leading to a heartfelt reconciliation of the sons of Israel.
Set to an engaging cornucopia of musical styles, from
country-western and calypso to pop and rock'n'roll, this Old Testament
tale emerges both timely and timeless.
