comment |
It's part of the Book of Genesis... BUT WITH SINGING.Really, Joseph and the Amazing Technicolor Dreamcoat (abbreviated as Joseph...Dreamcoat, Dreamcoat, J&tATD, etc. etc.) is simply that: Andrew Lloyd Webber's Breakthrough Hit, his first musical to be performed, with lyrics by his frequent collaborator Tim Rice, and based on the Biblical story of Joseph and his coat of many colors. It first performed in the form of a choir arrangement in 1968, before making it to the stage in 1972.As a side note, this was the musical by which Donny Osmond, playing the titular Joseph, surpassed George Rose to take the World Record for Most Appearances as a Single Character in a Stage Production. Rose previously held the record for playing Major General Stanley in The Pirates of Penzance over 5200 times on stage; Osmond surpassed this mark, and eventually would go on to play Joseph in over 7000 presentations of the show, including a filmed version.Was later followed up by Lloyd Webber's other major biblical musical: Jesus Christ Superstar. |

comment |
Canon Foreigner: The Biblical Jacob had only two wives, Rachel and Leah (and two concubines, the handmaidens Bilhah and Zilpah). The musical has twelve wives to go with the twelve brothers, presumably so that there's a more robust female chorus. Although the brothers did all have wives; several of them were married with children when Joseph was sold, as he was the second youngest of them. |

So, could you give it to me one more time...Mister Pharaoh Man...please?" Baring Mrs. Potiphar's cheeky remark of "Pitty" in "Potiphar". |

Adaptational Villainy |
| | Joseph and the Amazing Technicolor Dreamcoat (Theatre) / int_20f689e9 |
comment |
Adaptational Villainy: Benjamin and Reuben. In the Bible Benjamin is still fairly young when Joseph is sold as a slave and does not participate in the attack, throwing him in a pit, or selling him. Reuben is the one who convinces the rest of his brothers not to kill Joseph and only throw him in a pit, intending to return that night to rescue him. He also does not participate in selling Joseph and is angry when he discovers it. There are some productions where Benjamin objects to Joseph being sold and has to be held back by his brothers but Reuben is always portrayed (initially) as a villain. In Benjamin's case it even gets a bit weirder: The musical mentions that at least part of Jacob's favoritism was due to Joseph being the son of Rachel, his favorite wife. Although Benjamin was Joseph's full brother, and also the son of Rachel, it makes sense for the favoritism to affect him because his birth was what killed Rachel. Some productions avert this by leaving Benjamin out of the kidnap scene and having him at Jacob's side during "One More Angel in Heaven". |

Anachronism Stew |
| | Joseph and the Amazing Technicolor Dreamcoat (Theatre) / int_259d5879 |
comment |
Anachronism Stew: The show deliberately embraces and revels in this trope. In particular, it goes without saying that the choice of genre for several songs would not have existed in the times of the Book of Genesis and make about as much sense as a rapping dog on the Titanic: Pharaoh is an Elvis impersonator singing the rock-and-roll "Song of the King." Joseph's brothers sing the country-western "One More Angel in Heaven" in cowboy hats, and one even says "10-4, good buddy!" Potiphar is introduced with the 1920s Charleston-style song "Potiphar", which references getting rich by investing...in pyramids. (This song offers a two for one, since all the best-known pyramids were already centuries old by the time Joseph is believed to have lived.) Joseph's brothers sing "Those Canaan Days" as a French ballad (with ridiculous fake accents and costumes). Joseph's brothers sing "Benjamin Calypso." Many productions include other anachronisms, such as the Ishmaelites paying for Joseph with a credit card, or having a slot machine on the set during "Grovel, Grovel." During "Jacob and Sons" in the 1999 pro filmed version, the wives all roll past with several modern household item on top of their, possibly as a Shout-Out to conveyor belt of prizes on The Generation Game. A more minor example: at one point, the Narrator calls the Pharaoh "Rameses." While no one knows exactly when the story of Joseph would have taken place in history, it was almost certainly many, many years before any of the Pharaohs named Rameses lived. |

Funny Background Event |
| | Joseph and the Amazing Technicolor Dreamcoat (Theatre) / int_26eb6287 |
comment |
Funny Background Event: Several in the 1999 movie. During "One More Angel," one of the wives takes Joseph's torn coat and starts singing over it. Then Asher tries to take the coat, dragging her with it, and they fight over it as the rest of the brothers are playing up their sadness for Jacob (Asher wins the fight and is wearing the coat when they dance triumphantly). Joseph consults the Bible to interpret the dream during "Song of the King." In "Those Canaan Days," one of the wives performs a dance that involves splits in mid-air. One of the brothers rushes to cover Benjamin's eyes. Also in "Those Canaan Days," Benjamin and another brother struggle for several seconds to get Jacob out of his chair so he can join a kickline, then immediately put him back down. When "Benjamin Calypso" starts, Joseph punches his own knee in exasperation. During "Benjamin Calypso," Judah takes the narrator's cocktail and offers it to Joseph, but he refuses. She then reclaims her drink with a glare at Judah. |

Adapted Out: Joseph's Egyptian wife Asenath and two sons Ephraim and Manasseh are never mentioned in this retelling. Joseph's sister Dinah, Jacob's only daughter, is never mentioned either. In a way, Rachel, Leah, Bilhah and Zilpah. Rachel is referred to but never mentioned by name, and is presumably dead before the action starts, as the song "Joseph's Coat" heavily implies ("Joseph's mother, she was quite my favourite wife / Never really loved another all my life"). Meanwhile, Leah, another of Jacob's wives and the mother of Reuben, Simeon, Levi, Judah, Issachar, Zebulon and Dinah isn't even mentioned at all. Neither is Naphtali and Dan's mother Bilhah, nor Zilpah, the mother of Asher and Gad. |

Recurring Riff: Webber leans heavily into this trope in most of his works, and this is no exception: "Poor, poor [whoever], whatcha gonna do?" The Prologue becomes the prologue-of-sorts to the second act ("Pharaoh's Story"). "Joseph's Coat" becomes "Pharaoh's Dreams Explained" in the second act. "Joseph's Dreams" becomes "Joseph All The Time," as Joseph essentially reveals to his brothers that the dreams have just come true. |

Secret Test of Character: When Joseph's brothers show up in Egypt without recognizing him, he decides to both get a little revenge and prove whether or not they've changed and thus deserve his help by framing Benjamin for theft. Rather than letting him take the fall and leave with the food (as they had sold Joseph into slavery so they could return home and, they thought, get their father's attention again), they proclaim his innocence and beg to be taken and punished instead. |

Incredibly Long Note: Builds to this with each verse of Those Canaan Days ("where diiiiiiiiiiiid they go"), until the final verse. Played differently depending on the production - the movie has the brothers intentionally stop, glance around at each other, nod, then repeat the note. Most school productions will play this as holding the note so long they run out of breath. |

Adaptation Distillation |
| | Joseph and the Amazing Technicolor Dreamcoat (Theatre) / int_5a40d6a |
comment |
Adaptation Distillation: While generally faithful to the Bible apart from the Anachronism Stew, the musical streamlines the story here and there. Instead of Joseph escaping from Mrs. Potiphar's advances and her retaliating later with a False Rape Accusation, her husband barges in during the seduction attempt and blames Joseph in a Not What It Looks Like scenario. Later, the brothers' two separate trips to Egypt are condensed into one, and instead of multiple Secret Tests of Character, they face only the "cup in Benjamin's sack" incident. The musical also never mentions that Benjamin is the only other son of Joseph's mother, and therefore Jacob's second favorite, which means that a layer of meaning behind the "cup in the sack" test (i.e. will the brothers abandon Rachel's other son the way they did Joseph?) is lost. |

comment |
Medium Awareness: A few of the lyrics suggest that the characters know they are in a show. For example, the Prologue has the narrator say that she will tell the story of Joseph since the audience are there for a couple of hours. The lyric "We've read the book and you come out on top" also applies; some versions go on to reference the performance venue itself, saying, "We've been outside, and you're on the marquee." A lyric in Potiphar's song reminds audiences "it's all there in Chapter Thirty-Nine of Genesis." In the movie, when failing to understand Pharaoh's dreams, Joseph flips through the pages of a Bible to find the answer. |

Denser and Wackier: Though always campy, in the 30-odd years the play's been running around the world, productions have generally gotten more and more aggressively wacky, with hammier acting, more Flanderized portrayals of the characters, more anachronisms, and a deeper embrace of the varied genres of the songs. Compared to a contemporary production, the Original Broadway Cast sounds like everyone's taken a load of valium. |

Cross-Cast Role: As written, the Narrator has no specific gender, and is played by a man in the 1973 Original London Cast recording. However, the part is now always played by a woman to compensate for the fact that, otherwise, there are no prominent female roles and only one named female character (Mrs. Potiphar) in the show. |

Mood Whiplash: "Benjamin Calypso," a cheery pseudo-Jamaican song which comes just seconds after Benjamin is framed for theft. In "One More Angel," where the brothers celebrate Joseph's "death" while their father's gone, then pretend to cry whenever he arrives. The ensemble goes into the rousing chorus of "Go Go Go Joseph" just after the announcement of the Baker's death. For that matter, the somewhat cheery, bouncy "Potiphar" segues immediately into the extremely dramatic, serious invoked Tear Jerker of "Close Every Door", which then leads into the above "Go Go Go Joseph." |

Happiness in Slavery: Joseph would be perfectly happy being enslaved in Potiphar's house, if it weren't for those darn beautiful women trying to have sex with him all the time. Though to be fair, he worked his way up so he was basically running the house. As far as slave gigs go, it's not the worst you could get. |

Mrs. Potiphar molesting Joseph is one of the few things in the story that isn't played for hilarity, yet there's a goofy upbeat musical and possibly dance number playing. He clearly has the right to decline her advances, and she's clearly wrong for forcing herself on him, but you can bet however it's portrayed, will be treated more lightly than it would be with the roles reversed. |

And You Were There: In the film version, because of the Framing Device of the show being done as an actual school play, all the main roles also play teachers or other faculty at the fictional school. |

Composite Character: Inverted. In early recordings of the show, it's an anonymous "lively lad" who tells Pharaoh about Joseph; in later ones, it's the butler Joseph's already met, which makes a lot more narrative sense. Were the two characters combined when the musical was revised? On the contrary—somebody must have gone back to the Book of Genesis and noticed that in the book, the lad in question is Pharaoh's butler. |

Never Trust a Title: Though Joseph receiving his colored coat does set the plot in motion, it's not the source of his dreams nor his power to interpret them, as it's being called a "dreamcoat" in the title might have you believe. In fact, the coat is destroyed early on so Joseph doesn't even have it for most of the show. |
