This event has now concluded.

The Biblical saga of Joseph and his coat of many colours comes to vibrant life in this delightful musical parable. Joseph, his father's favourite 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 where thwarting advances from Potiphar's wife lands him in jail.

When news of Joseph's gift to interpret dreams reaches the Pharaoh (wryly and riotously depicted as Elvis), Joseph is well on his way to becoming second in command. Eventually his brothers, having suffered greatly, unknowingly find themselves grovelling 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 bubble-gum pop and rock 'n' roll, this Old Testament tale emerges both timely and timeless.

For six weeks in term two, Highlanders will have the unique opportunity to tap into Antoinette’s deep understanding of the craft and tap into the Fundamentals of Acting. The course will focus on the four core principles of acting: Character Development and Personalisation (Who am I?); Given Circumstances (Where am I?

This will culminate with a performance workshop to showcase what you’ve learned to friends and family.

ABOUT

It is the night before Meg’s wedding. She and her bridesmaids are planning to kick up their heels as the final hours before the big day tick down. However, not everything goes to plan as a last-minute scandal threatens to ruin the whole affair. Elizabeth Coleman’s wonderful characters bring this seriously funny play to life. Never far from reality, it exposes the insanity that can be created as the wedding juggernaut threatens to swerve out of control.

Marriage may be a wonderful thing, but after a night like this, well, could it really be worth it?

Please note: This production contains adult themes and some coarse language and is not suitable for children.
