JOSEPH AND THE AMAZING TECHNICOLOR DREAMCOAT

SPECIAL SUMMER PRICES OFFER VALLEY FAMILIES AN AFFORDABLE OUTING


Fresh, innovative, and an awe inspiring crowd-favorite is the best way to describe Andrew Lloyd Webber and Tim Rice's JOSEPH AND THE AMAZING TECHNICOLOR DREAMCOAT. This internationally acclaimed musical/dance extravaganza explodes at the Broadway Palm Dinner Theatre now through August 23rd in Mesa. This lively and colorful musical parable travels through ancient Egypt as a boy, Joseph, blessed with prophetic dreams, is sold into slavery by his conniving brothers. But in true rags to riches fashion, Joseph overcomes these tremendous odds, and dares modern audiences to dream of doing the same. A blazing cornucopia of musical styles, and featuring such song favorites as "Any Dream Will Do," "Close Every Door," and "Go, Go, Go Joseph," this Old Testament romp emerges as both a timely and timeless tale of tragedy and triumph.

A fun-filled treat for the ages, JOSEPH AND THE AMAZING TECHNICOLOR DREAMCOAT is a dream of a show for the entire family! Adult ticket prices are $35 and include a buffet meal. Tickets for ages 18 and under are only $18. Student rush tickets (show only) are $10 and available 30 minutes prior to curtain to currently enrolled high school and college students with a valid school ID. Tickets may be purchased online at www. BroadwayPalmWest.com or by calling the Box Office at (480) 325-6700. B

efore Andrew Lloyd Webber's Evita, before The Phantom of the Opera, and even before Cats, there was JOSEPH AND THE AMAZING TECHNICOLOR DREAMCOAT - a musical that brought the Old Testament story of Jacob and his twelve sons to millions of audiences worldwide. The story of a young man in Canaan with dream-reading abilities, Joseph receives a rainbow-colored coat as a gift from his father. Joseph's brothers are less than pleased by their father's favoritism, abduct Joseph, destroy his coat, and sell him into slavery. Fortunately, Joseph uses his talents to impress the Pharaoh and is appointed the Minister of Agriculture.

When a famine hits, Joseph's brothers come looking for employment. Not recognizing their younger brother, Joseph plans a surprise for his jealous brothers before revealing himself. The cast for the Broadway Palm production features Patrick Darab as Joseph and local favorite Mark Kleinman as Jacob. Patrick Darab hails from North Carolina and is a recent graduate from UNC Greensboro School of Music with a Bachelor of Music degree in Opera Performance and Musical Theater. He has performed the roles of Cain and Japheth in Children of Eden, Tinman in The Wizard of Oz, Choregus in Antigone, Lt. Cable in South Pacific, Delmount Williams in The Miss Firecracker Contest, Lead player in The Complete Works of William Shakespeare Abridged, and Paul Berthalet in Carnival. Mark Kleinman, an ariZoni award winner, has performed extensively in both operatic and musical theater repertory around the world. His diverse roles include Rodolfo in La Boheme, Faust in Faust, Hoffmann in Les Contes De Hoffman, The Witch in Hansel und Gretel, Governor Johnson in Blackbeard, The Beast in Beauty and the Beast, Lt. Joe Cable and Emile de Beque in South Pacific, Capt. Von Trapp in The Sound of Music, Harold Hill in The Music Man, and Fred in A Christmas Carol.

The cast features New York actors Sam Hay, Alex Herrera, Kevin Korcynski, Courtney Love, Alex Kanter and Corey Moreno, along with local actors Chris Matesevac, Jordan Daniels, Connor Wince and Jensen Clifford. Local actresses Paige Tamarkin, Emma England and Victoria Fairclough portray the wives along with New York actresses Megan Cone and Brooke Dairman. Virginia Caveliere, who currently appears in the Broadway Palm production of Irving Berlin's I Love a Piano and appeared in last summer's High School Musical, plays The Narrator. In addition to a cast of professional performers, this production features local children from the East Valley Children's Theatre, Chandler Children's Choir and Scottsdale Children's Choir. Each choir, which will perform for two weeks, will delight audiences with their talent and youthful exuberance. The production is directed and choreographed by St. Louis based Millie Garvey with musical direction by JR McAlexander, set design by David Snyder, lighting design by Russell A. Thompson and costume design by John P. White and Mary Atkinson. "We are delighted that Millie Garvey, our choreographer for Evita and West Side Story is returning for Joseph" said Palm's Artistic Producer M. Seth Reines. "Her Joseph is the best I've ever seen!"
