GGoo!! GGoo!! GGoo!! JJoosseepphh!!!!!!With a crash of drums and a flash of light, Encore Theatre Company's production of Joseph and the Amazing Technicolor Dreamcoat will light up the Princess Theatre stage in July 2011!
This revised version (never seen before in Tasmania!) of the spectacular Swinging Sixties show blasts into the 21st century with a colourful retelling of the biblical story of Joseph, the boy with the dreams and the dazzling designer coat of many colours, sings out to young and old alike with a score full of wall to wall hits - including Close Every Door and Any Dream Will Do.
Audiences will need to go-go-go and book tickets quickly for this high-energy, all-singing, all-dancing extravaganza when this all-new staging of Tim Rice and Andrew Lloyd Webber's family classic hits town in July 2011.
But how about getting on the other side of the footlights? Audition info kits and times are now available for thisproduction which requires a cast of 60. All-ages and all-singing types!

Without doubt, all Australians thoughts are with those suffering the effects of massive flooding sweeping across five states at the moment. And it’s not so long ago that this country was in the grip of drought.
There is something very simple that all of us can do to assist in the fundraising efforts, and that is get along to RESPONSE – a Gala Cocktail Party on January 26 at the Tailrace Centre. Tickets are $75 each and with everything donated this means that 100% of your ticket prices goes to the fundraising fund. Get your tickets from Theatre North at the Princess Theatre.
