Yesterday, my daughters, granddaughters and I went to see this.

We thought it was fabulous - full of energy and great fun.

The narrators voice was a bit irritating but didn't take away from the whole experience.

I have never seen it, but both my children did when teenagers, in the theatre.

They loved it.

We have seen it quite a few times as all 3 girls love it. This was huge fun.

I saw this many years ago with Jason Donovan and really loved it and would love to see it again. Pleased you all enjoyed it.

You can get the DVD on Amazon, starring Donny Osborne. It is wonderful.

I directed this as a school production. It was great fun. You can hear future Lloyd Webber songs hinted at throughout.

I took my daughter when she was around 13 in the west end with Jason Donovan as Joseph. Her heartthrob at the time.
I believe he is in the current show as the Pharoah.

Went to see this straight after lockdown with DGC. Was in tears

Any dream will do......

We saw the touring version which has Joe McElderry as the Pharoah. He was really good.

We took our children to Blackpool to see Joseph and his Amazing Technicolour Dreamcoat years ago. Philip Schofield played Joseph. It was a wonderful production.
My son was in it at school when he was eight.

I used to take the children to see it when they were young. We all loved it.

We enjoyed it very much - myself and eldest two GC, aged 8 and 11.
However, our top review goes to Oliver!, currently in London. It was fabulous.
