Seeing Bill Hutton here, from my home city of Evansville, gives me hope to one day perform on Broadway despite coming from southern Indiana.
this is just DRIPPING with early 80s/late 70s cheese. I love it. Lol

Reminds me of Doug Henning and Did Conn in "The Magic Show".
1970-1980 where they ALWAYS went out into the audience in at least one show....
I had the extreme honor to meet Laurie backstage when she performed at a NYC club. Her mother was with her that night and the two were just extraordinarily nice people. I fell in love with Laurie the first time I heard her singing on the recording of Joseph, and when I saw that she was appearing in NY I ran down to the city to see her perform. All the club had left when I got there was a bar stool and I gladly paid the regular price for the seat. Laurie had such talent matched with an amazing personality. Her voice could go from whisper soft to blow out the windows. And on top of it all, she was so beautiful. When I heard that she passed I was heartbroken. I still choke up listening and watching her here. We lost not only a magnificent star but a most beautiful person. I'm sure that the angels are being well entertained up in Heaven with Laurie, but we lost her way too soon. Will always love you.
The 90’s filmed performance starring Donny Osmond sent me here. I lived 29 years on Earth, been a fan of Broadway since Wicked and don’t know what a classic I’ve been missing out on.
She just sung that shit outta that number!
I wish I had been able to see and hear more of Laurie Beechman....she was sucha talent taken too soon!
WOW Laurie is belting up a storm here!!
Makes me sad because many of those people are no longer with us. Even Laurie Beechman.

Ms. Beechman was an EXTRAORDINARY talent!
Great show, always a classic. Most fun musical I ever ran.
I remember hearing the ad on the radio in 1985 and when my best friend heard me sing the tune what I remembered from when I was 3, she told it was Joseph and the technicolor jacket I thought wow cool!
I just saw this show again on 3/30/2014. I first saw it on my birthday back in 1995. This was the Canadian cast with Donny Osmond. He was Joseph, and Janet Metz was the narrator. I recently saw this show again on 03/30/2014. Diana Degarmo was the narrorator....and she was PERFECT! She could hit those high notes like no one else. This show is timeless, and the 2014 version of the narrator....who has the biggest part.....is the best singer this role has ever seen.
DAMN she can sing

I remember when it was showing at the Palladium in London in 1993 - all the posters for the show allround London were advertising it as 'Day Trips To Egypt'
It's such a shame they didn't record the entire production. I know that usually wasn't done but it would have been nice to have all of Laurie's performance.
I love this musical so much.
Many musical stars have starred in Joseph,David Cassidy, Patrick Cassidy, Micheal Damien, Donny Osmond and the late Andy Gibb.
I was a kid when I heard and saw this. I was totally in awe of Laurie Beechman. And decades later, I still am. Man, she is the best.
Donny Osmond nephew David starred in Joseph and was his uncle's understudy.
Well damn, Laurie!
1:24-1:40 Quite a long note.

As a British person I had never heard of Laurie Beecham’s version, I had only heard of Linzi Hately and Maria Friedman. I absolutely love Laurie’s overall presence, she looks like she’s enjoying the singing and she gives of such a positive aura.
Good medley -- the got pretty much every good song in there. "Go Go Jospeh" is my fave that one is so catchy. The costumes were really dated compared to recent productions, however.
I'm so glad I got to see this on Broadway with the original cast. Bill Hutton was a great Joseph.
I saw this cast when they came to the Sanger Theater in New Orleans back in the 80's
The American cast is, in my opinion, the best production of all, starting with the best singer Laurie Beechman
saw the absolute original in London 1973 and it has never dimmed, no matter the cast

joseph and the Amazing techincolor Dreamcoat 82 tonys
After viewing this musical I had only one question for the writers, just what kind of massive drugs were you taking when you wrote this?
Tonys : So which song would you like to perform from your new show? Andrew Lloyd Webber : yes Tonys : .......
Thanks for posting, MrPoochsmooch.
Thanks so much for posting these videos . Please keep them coming.
If you watch his face, Joseph is clearly channeling Barbra Streisand during his close-up starting at 3:50 lol

You're not kidding 'it' came on stage before he did.
Where can I find the part where they sing "Joseph all the Time"? That was the part they featured in the commercial back in '82.
The guys there too have lockdown hairstyles.
My high school did a production of Joseph And The Amazing Technicolor Dreamcoat when I was in 11th grade.
um.... I want what they're having.
Lol 1:24 I wonder if anyone is ever gonna get that long note I counted and it lasted 17 seconds wowsers.(ended at 1:41)as he gasped for breathe lol
Well, the tune to Jacob and Sons is in there somewhere
My dream musical
Rice snd Lloyd Webber were all of 18 when they composed this.
I was in this play one time. Jacob and sons was a lot different
HOLY MEDLEY BATMAN!
I hope they reboot the show.
Loved the cut to Ruth Gordon in the audience at the end.

racking needed towards the end lol who remembers tracking???
i performed this show in my middle school last year... everyone in the production hated it. it was the first repeat of a show (10th anniversary) needless to say, the 4 Stars (the kids who did drama from 5th-8th grade) were not happy. there was only like 4 lead roles so the rest of the people who normally would have received a role we’re put in as brothers and their wives (i was a wife- a severe step down from my lead as Lola in Damn Yankees the year before)

can't be the lead in every production....the ensemble can make or break a show...an enthusiastic, talented ensemble makes it awesome...an unenthusiastic one kills it no matter how good the leads are...be grateful for every show you get cast in bc there's always something to learn...humility is one of the lessons...if directors see you happily accept ensemble and do your best in it, they remember...if they see you as having sour grapes bc you weren't the lead, they remember and won't cast you again.

I went to high school with Laurie Beachman. No one doubted she’d be a star. Her dog Hamlet bit me when I was 15 and my dad said I could sue their insurance company to get plastic surgery. I chose not to, knowing Laurie would be a huge success.
OH DEAR GOD!
