Jac Yarrow And Jason Donovan will return to Joseph And The Amazing Technicolor Dreamcoat at the London Palladium next summer.
Jason Donovan played Joseph in a sold-out 18-month run of the show that produced a number 1 single and a best-selling soundtrack album in the 1990s. He returned to Joseph And The Amazing Technicolor Dreamcoat at the London Palladium this year as Pharaoh. Much to fans’ delight, Jason will reprise this performance next summer, and will be belting out the Song Of The King from July 2020.

Jason said: “Following on from the success of this year’s awesome, reimagined version of Tim Rice and Andrew Lloyd Webber’s Joseph And The Amazing Technicolor Dreamcoat, I’m delighted to be returning in the summer of 2020 to reprise my role as the Pharaoh.
This year was an absolute joy. Joseph has such a special connection with its audience and it has a huge emotional connection for me. Quite simply the show is pure musical magic. To be able to lean on the past yet build something new for the role of Pharaoh is an opportunity that cannot be done just once, and for performer or audience member alike, it just doesn’t get much better than the Palladium experience.”

Jac Yarrow made his professional stage debut this year as Joseph and blew London away. His portrayal of the the titular character won fans and critics alike, winning him the Joe Allen Best West End Debut Award earlier this year. His rendition of ‘Close Every Door To Me’ regularly stopped the show with standing ovations.
Jac said: “Playing the iconic role of Joseph at its spiritual home, The Palladium, last summer was what I thought was a once-in-a-life-time opportunity. When I was asked to step back into the Dreamcoat for a second time, I couldn’t quite believe it. I can’t wait to be back!”
