A MULTI-COLOURED musical extravaganza is coming to Ellesmere Port.
Dreamcoat Stars, currently touring the UK, will make a whirlwind stop at Ellesmere Port Civic Hall on Saturday, October 28.
Featuring stars from the worldwide hit production Joseph and the Amazing Technicolor Dreamcoat, the show promises incredible vocal performances in a musical evening of West End and Broadway classics.
Journey into a colourful production packed with vibrant and energetic songs from the nation’s most loved shows including Joseph, Jesus Christ Superstar, SIX, Wicked, Phantom of the Opera, Mamma Mia, We Will Rock You, Jersey Boys, Les Misérables, Moulin Rouge and more.
Showgoers are encouraged to sing along and relive all their favourite musicals in one epic show.
The show is produced by Matt Brinkler for RED Entertainment and Keith Jack, who also stars in the touring production, having shot to fame after placing second in BBC1’s ‘Any Dream Will Do’.
Mr Jack said: “[Joseph] has been a part of my life since before Any Dream Will Do, and I’ve always thought about getting a few Joseph performers together for a concert of musical theatre. [Joseph] is such a well-loved show and we were delighted with the fantastic audience reaction to our new concert last spring.
"We discovered the show not only appeals to people of all ages, it even introduced some of the newer musicals to audiences that haven’t heard them before.”
Mr Brinkler added: “This musical theatre concert is the perfect way to make larger musicals accessible and affordable for so many that need an introduction to theatre. It gives us an opportunity to reach further into communities that haven’t got access to number one touring venues.
"It is my hope that we can inspire new audiences towards the West End and large-scale touring venues through the celebrity pull of these hugely talented ex-Josephs and co-stars.
"At the same time, we have an opportunity to introduce some new musicals to audiences that are already fans of the genre.”
The Ellesmere Port Civic Hall show starts at 7.30pm on Saturday, October 28 (doors open 7pm). For information and to book, visit https://brioentertainment.org/event/dreamcoat-stars/
