" 'Joseph and the Amazing Technicolor Dreamcoat' is so
vibrant, so vivid, it's like being in the middle of a
dream world sponsored by Skittles. The result is pure
fun, a play so filled with enthusiasm and life that even the two
toddlers seated behind me watched in rapt awe, not squirming
or complaining once during its two hour duration. And in my
experience, that's about as positive a review as you can get."
