Stars of Joseph and his Amazing Technicolour Dreamcoat at the Lancaster Grand popped in to the Beyond Radio studio for a colourful challenge!

Ashleigh Hartin, Benji Pollitt and Chris Isherwood will be part of the Morecambe Warblers team bringing the iconic musical to the venue from Tuesday September 23 to Saturday September 27.

The multi-award winning ‘Joseph and the Amazing Technicolor Dreamcoat’ is the retelling of the biblical story that follows Joseph, his father Jacob, his 11 brothers, and the famous multi-coloured coat on a journey of hope, destiny and forgiveness.

Through song and dance, the Narrator tells the story of Joseph's journey into slavery, his rise to power, and his extraordinary ability to interpret dreams.

Featuring energetic, catchy songs including ‘Any Dream Will Do’, ‘Close Every Door’, ‘Go Go Go Joseph’, as well as the vibrant ‘Joseph Megamix’, this feel-good show is suitable for all ages.

Ahead of the show, Ashleigh (the Narrator) and Benji (Joseph), were challenged to prove they knew all the colours, in order, in the iconic 'Joseph's Coat' song!
