MILWAUKEE, WI (Oct. 16, 2025) – Skylight Music Theatre proudly announces the cast and creative team behind the dazzling spectacle, Joseph and the Amazing Technicolor ® Dreamcoat, running from November 14 through December 28, 2025, on the Cabot stage.
Directed by Artistic Director Michael Unger, the show features talented top-of-the-region actors and a delightful mix of Skylight favorites and debuts paired with a spectacular creative team. The youth ensemble features 14 talented performers whose credits span across the state. This production is a perfect holiday treat for theatergoers of all ages with the diverse array of music and lyrics by Tim Rice and Andrew Lloyd Webber, one of the most notable pairs of authors in musical theatre history.
“The cast for Joseph… is a fantastic mix of Skylight favorites as well as many new faces making their Skylight debuts,” says Artistic Director and director Michael Unger. “With Joseph… being one of the most beloved musicals of all time, and the immensely innovative team we have assembled for this production, it promises to burst with joy, color, comedy — and to be a perfect holiday outing for friends and families.”
Joseph and the Amazing Technicolor ® Dreamcoat retells the biblical story of Joseph from the Book of Genesis. Favored by his fa
ther, Jacob, and gifted with a multicolored coat, Joseph’s prophetic dreams spark jealousy among his eleven brothers, who sell him into slavery in Egypt. Through his ability to interpret dreams, Joseph rises from servant to Pharaoh’s trusted advisor, where his optimism, faith, and creativity are put to the test. All ends happily as he is reunited with his brothers and forgives them for the way they started him on this colorful journey to discover his best self.
