Joseph and the Amazing Technicolor Dreamcoat

As the pit band warms up and begins the overture, excitement builds for those gathered to see the first major production in the new Cicely Tyson School of Performing Arts' Theater.

The play, Joseph and the Amazing Technicolor Dreamcoat, was written by Andrew Lloyd Webber and Tim Rice in 1968, but first staged in London in 2005. Since then, it has become a favorite production of high schools and amateur theatre groups.
