Joseph and the Technicolor Dreamcoat is set return to The Bristol Hippodrome from Wednesday 12th March – Saturday 22nd March 2025.

The multi-award-winning show – Tim Rice and Andrew Lloyd Webber’s first major collaboration – has been performed hundreds of thousands of times including multiple runs in the West End and on Broadway, international tours in over 80 countries worldwide and has become one of the world’s most beloved family musicals.

Featuring much-loved pop and musical theatre classics, including Any Dream Will Do, Close Every Door, There’s One More Angel In Heaven and Go, Go, Go, Joseph, the new London Palladium production received a rapturous reception during its 2019 and 2021 summer seasons, ahead of its first major UK tour in 2022.

Producer Michael Harrison said of the announcement, After two sensational runs at The London Palladium and a celebrated tour, which saw audiences up on their feet when we played in The Bristol Hippodrome in 2022, I am delighted to bring Joseph and the Amazing Technicolor Dreamcoat back to the Bristol Hippodrome next year.

“Few shows bring the generations together the way Joseph does, and we can’t wait to welcome audiences new and old to make memories that will last a lifetime.”

Told entirely through song with the help of the Narrator, Joseph and the Amazing Technicolor Dreamcoat follows the story of Jacob’s favourite son Joseph and his eleven brothers. After being sold into hardship by the brothers, he ingratiates himself with Egyptian noble Potiphar but ends up in jail after refusing the advances of Potiphar’s wife.

While imprisoned, Joseph discovers his ability to interpret dreams, and he soon finds himself in front of the mighty but troubled showman, the Pharaoh. As Joseph strives to resolve Egypt’s famine, he becomes Pharaoh’s right-hand man and eventually reunites with his family.
