The 2014 national tour of Joseph and the Amazing Technicolor Dreamcoat comes to Tulsa and Oklahoma City in April. Presented by Celebrity Attractions, the show will be directed and choreographed by Tony Award-winner Andy Blankenbuehler.

Joseph blends pop, country and rock into an uplifting, technicolored story of Biblical proportions. A Narrator tells the Biblical story of Joseph, who is sold into slavery by his jealous older brothers, and then rises to become the second most powerful man in Egypt. The Narrator provides context for the brilliant, campy, set piece musical numbers. The music itself is memorable; the stagecraft is brilliant. The show constantly surprises and entertains audiences, for example having Pharoh performed by an Elvis impersonator. It is a toe-tapping, laugh-inducing musical sure to entertain your entire family.

Broadway and television star Diana DeGarmo (Narrator) and Broadway star Ace Young (Joseph) will head up the cast, which features Paul Castree as Simeon, William Thomas Evans as Jacob/Potiphar, Brian Golub as Reuben, Will Mann as Judah and Ryan Williams as Pharaoh.

Joseph and the Amazing Technicolor Dreamcoatis the first collaboration of composer Andrew Lloyd Webber (Jesus Christ Superstar, The Phantom of the Opera, Cats) and lyricist Tim Rice(Jesus Christ Superstar, Disney’s The Lion King).
