Joseph and the Amazing Technicolor Dreamcoat

Joseph and the Amazing Technicolor Dreamcoat is a 1999 direct-to-video film version of the Andrew Lloyd Webber musical of the same name. The plot of the film follows the same story of Joseph’s life as the West End musical. The only change is the addition of a very brief framing device in which the actors begin the film as “teachers” in a school where the “students” become the children’s chorus of the musical. The film was originally shot as a feature film, but ended up being released directly to video. The film was shot in the beginning months of 1999 at Pinewood Studios in London.
