In the summer of 1967, Andrew Lloyd Webber was asked by Alan Doggett, head of the Music Department at Colet court, St Paul’s Junior School who taught his younger brother, Julian, to write a ‘pop cantata’ for the school choir to sing at their Easter end of term concert.
Andrew immediately approached his friend Tim Rice to ask if he would write lyrics for the project. After toying with ideas about spies, 007′s and the like, Tim suggested the story of Joseph.
The first performance of Joseph and the Amazing Technicolor Dreamcoat was on a cold winter afternoon on 1st March 1968 at the Old Assembly Hall, Colet Court, Hammersmith.
Accompanied by the School orchestra and conducted by Alan Doggett, the performance was only 15 minutes long.
It was such a success that a second performance was arranged on 12th May 1968 at Central Hall, Westminster, where Andrew’s father was the organist. Julian Lloyd Webber gave a classical recital in the first half, along with Bill Lloyd Webber. The audience of approximately 2,500 consisted mainly of parents of the Colet Court boys. To Andrew and Tim’s surprise, Derek Jewell, Jazz and Pop Critic for The Sunday Times, saw the show and wrote a favourable review of Joseph, which appeared on 19th May 1968. A third performance took place on 9th November 1968 at St Paul’s Cathedral, where Joseph was expanded to include songs such as ‘Potiphar’ for the first time.

Donny Osmond is extremely cute in real life
I don't think I know if Darren Criss is cute or not. Early thirties year old Donny is a heartbeating adorable babe
Donny Osmond: There’s more to that cute side of Joseph, I wanted to portray more.
Everyone: Look at the fluff boy. Human marshmallow.
@mbunnyj7051, I'm 21 years old and I was in my mom's tummy when this came out. Now in my early 20's, I now crush on early thirties year old Donny Osmond even though I was in the womb when this came out
I like the show
My family is related to Donny Osmond on my moms side
@kimberlydougal1966, Lucky! My sister's farm assistant lived in Chicago and Donny Osmond lived a few doors down!
Me and my school are doing a play on this and were in year 3 and 4
They spelled his name wrong in the beginning... 🤭
They spelt his name wrong on the video! Boo!
Like nick Holmes as Benjamin he favourite as Benjamin
I don’t understand why they had him a wig lol
Donny is perfect, I saw it on the stage with a blonde Joseph and didn't like it, Joesph is not meant to be blonde!
I personally wouldn't cast Donny as Joseph due 2 typecasting, similar 2 what he himself says: this is a religious musical & Donny was a famous teen idol raised as a Mormon.
Come on! He did a good job!
I'd argue that's precisely what makes Donny such a great Joseph. He's able to bring so much innocence and earnestness to the role when he's young Joseph, and portrays the haughty older Joseph slowly melting into forgiveness perfectly.
