Any Dream Will Do.

anyone managed to get tickets to see joseph? was lee good as joseph?

[Abigail]

He got a standing ovation on the opening night which is almost unheard of. This is a video of the end of the show http://www.andrewlloydwebber.com/sec...php?article=95

Apparantly, the seating is really bad in the Adelphi. If you sit in the upper dress circle you can't see very much.

While I was looking thru the You Tube videos, I was looking at some of the comments, they said Lewis was going to be Lee's understudy and would replace him while he was on vacation WTH ????
Why didn't they let Keith be the understudy,, from what I read Keith is singing at old folks homes ,,
This is very confusing

Craig has the lead part in the touring Joseph. From The Really Useful Group website:

OSEPH IS COMING…
AND IT’S CRAIG!

When producer/director Bill Kenwright brings his renowned production of Tim Rice and Andrew Lloyd Webber’s JOSEPH AND THE AMAZING TECHNICOLOR DREAMCOAT to a venue near you audiences will undoubtedly recognize the young man in the leading role…

25 year-old CRAIG CHALMERS was one of the most popular finalists in the recent hit BBC series Any Dream Will Do. Watched by millions every Saturday night, the show was produced to find a leading man for Andrew Lloyd Webber’s new West End production, and Craig, chosen from tens of thousands of wannabees, charmed audiences week after week with his vocal talents, finishing in the top five.

Bill Kenwright, one of the most successful and prolific producers in British theatre today, (whose current hit West End shows include the musicals Blood Brothers and Cabaret and acclaimed drama The Letter), was on the expert panel of judges alongside Andrew Lloyd Webber, Denise Van Outen and John Barrowman and is delighted that Craig is taking on the leading role.

Before Joseph, Edinburgh born Craig was a professional vocalist and entertainer. He was part of successful boyband 'No Reason' who enjoyed a top ten hit as well as performing at the Kings Theatre in Edinburgh and Hampden Stadium alongside Blue, McFly, Sugarbabes and Girls Aloud.

[Chloe O'brien]

If anyone should be an stand-in for Lee then it should be Keith. He was the runner-up. If the public thought that Lewis or anyone else was a better singer than him they would have voted for him.
