The choir rehearsed for over 10 hours to prepare for their stint in the musical production of Joseph and the Amazing Technicolor Dreamcoat. They appeared alongside Keith Jack, who was a runner up in the BBC series Any Dream Will Do, and who now stars as Joseph on the tour.

Theatre Workshop Director Lora Munro said: “ We have been providing the choir for the Joseph production for many years and its an amazing experience for our students to appear alongside professional’s and be featured throughout the show on stage.

“The choir are such a big part of the Joseph production. They were brilliant and had many compliments from the cast and audience members.”

The choir will now be preparing for a second stint as the Joseph choir at the Theatre Royal in June 2011.
