Twice adapted into films starring Michael Caine, Anthony Shaffer's play concerns a mystery writer who schemes to trick and befuddle his wife's lover. Set in the manor house of author Andrew Wyke, the home reflects his obsession with the inventions and deceptions of fiction and his fascination with games. Wyke lures Milo Tindle to the house and convinces him to stage a robbery, setting off a chain of events that will leave you trying to figure out where Wyke's imagination ends and reality begins. This production is directed by Jim Petosa, Artistic Director of the Olney Theatre Center. Learn More

The singing was outstanding for a small company production. The choreography was superb and added a great deal, including humor (have seen Joseph a number of times over the years). Highly recommend seeing this. Only bad spot: the lead female has an excellent voice. But why she is intent on blasting? ...seriously detracts from some of the finest "moments" in this musical. Over-acted voice-wise. At the every least, someone sharp (and quick) should be on the soundboard and compensate so as to avoid this "if I holler real loud, they'll think I could be on American Idol" sort of thing. Where is the Director: good grief!Written on Mar 17 2011

This was my first time to the Olney Theatre. I found it to be a nice small theater. Their production of Joseph and the Amazing Technicolor Dreamcoat was very entertaining, the cast was fabulous and you could tell they enjoyed their craft. It was filled with powerful singing, a strong comedic presence when needed and the scenery and dance sequences were performed with easy. If this is what the little theaters in our neighborhoods are presenting these day, I will be venturing out to support. Thank you, OTCWritten on Apr 05 2011

Took my 9 yr old son to this show. Wholly appropriate topics and lessons to be learned here. He loved the Joseph character as well as the "Elvis" King/Pharoah! He also seemed to relate to the show much more because of the boy his age in the cast.Written on Mar 10 2011
I liked seeing the diversity in the cast! Not one of AL-W's flashier productions with memorable tunes, but still quite enjoyable. My one caveat is that with many of the ensemble songs, lyrics were hard to hear/distinguish -- not sure if that had more to do with sound editing, theatre acoustics, or something else.

I took my 9 year old kids and my 80 year old mom to this - we all enjoyed it. I've seen it many times over the years so I was very familiar with the music. This production was different than others I've seen but it was good. Our seats were in the mezzanine and were perfect. I was happy to be there instead of in front of the stage given the volume of the narrator's voice. It was a great night.Written on Feb 28 2011
