Joseph!

[crystalcazzie]

after_thought16 and I went to see Joseph and the Amazing Technicolor Dreamcoat yesterday. I was worried that it wouldn't live up to my very high expectations though. I've been wanting to see this musical for years and had hyped it up so much in my head that I wasn't sure the actual version could possibly live up to the one in my mind.

But it did. Oh yes, it did. It was amazing. I loved it so much! Lee was great in the role and the Narrator (Jenna Lee-James) was incredible. I was blown away by her voice (and the fact that she was very hot didn't hurt either!) I loved the funny bits and the actors quirky expressions in reaction to them. Quirky expressions that I could see very clearly because we had excellent seats near the front. =D

I especially loved the singing camel, so I had to buy one for myself at the end. He's so cool; he dances and sings Any Dream Will Do. Not just a line or two either, the whole thing. It's Donny Osmond's voice, which seems like a bit of a weird choice, but whatever. I still love it.

All in all, I had a most excellent time and would happily go again. In fact that was one of the first things I said after leaving the theatre - "I want to see it again!" So if there's anyone reading this who wants to see it, I'll gladly go with you.

Yep, wanna see it.

The singing camel does Any Dream Will Do? Last time I saw it, he only sang 4 lines in The Journey To Egypt.

We should go some time.

The camel in the show does those lines. My cuddly camel, who is sitting next to me, sings the song. Sorry, obviously my lingering excitement impeded my ability to make myself clear.
