This was the first major collaboration by Tim Rice and Andrew Lloyd Webber. It worked out pretty well, wouldn’t you say?

The theatre presents its alternative to school holiday blues with the return of its Musical Theatre Summer School (August 4-8). Open for ages eight to 14, this is an opportunity to let youngsters sing and dance their way through the day, every day for a whole week.

The course cost includes a ticket to watch a matinee performance of Joseph and the Amazing Technicolor Dreamcoat.
Participants will also be the star in their own production; creating a ‘Show in a Week’ that they will perform to family on the final afternoon.
