Minnetonka Theatre Presents "Joseph and the Amazing Technicolor Dreamcoat"

Just in time for the 2021 holiday season, Minnetonka Theatre will present the much-loved Andrew Lloyd Webber classic Joseph and the Amazing Technicolor Dreamcoat.

The production will star popular Chanhassen Dinner Theatre actor, Jordan Oxborough, in the title role of Joseph. 

Joseph and the Amazing Technicolor Dreamcoat is such a fun and colorful show to be a part of,” said Oxborough. “The infectious energy, beautiful melodies, and powerful story make for an amazing experience. [It’s] a fantastic way to spend the holiday season with the entire family. It also holds an extra special place in my heart being that it was the very first show when my wife and I met and performed together just over a decade ago. I’m thrilled to be revisiting this Andrew Lloyd Webber classic!”

“We are thrilled to welcome Jordan to the Minnetonka stage, and we are beyond excited for our audience to see him shine in the role he was born to play!” said Artistic Director Trent Boyum.  

Boyum added, “We’ve got a cast of more than 70 actors, including professionals and community members. With its familiar songs, colorful costumes, and themes of family and forgiveness, audiences of all ages will not want to miss this beloved musical.”
