On Jan. 11, 2024, the drama club held its first rehearsal for the upcoming spring musical ‘Joseph and the Amazing Technicolor Dreamcoat.’ Backstage crews were given their assignments and schedules were distributed. 

“I’m excited for the opportunity to be a part of something greater than myself,” junior Eli Rosenberry said. “Joseph is just that opportunity.”

Members of the cast stayed to listen to songs from the musical as director Benjamin Cossitor explained his vision for the club’s performance. The show retells the biblical story of Joseph with music from Andrew Lloyd Webber. Regular rehearsals will continue until April. 

“It’s not just about the experience of the club,” Rosenberry said. “You meet a lot of great and interesting people, both in the cast and crew.”

The drama club will perform this show on April 4, 5, and 6 in the auditorium. There will also be a senior preview on April 3. Until then, the cast and crew will be learning musical numbers, practicing dance routines, creating set pieces, crafting costumes, and completing several other tasks to prepare. 

“I’m excited about the experience I’ll be gaining from dancing and singing for Joseph,” senior Nick Stevenson said. “I’m so happy to begin actively working in this production.”
