CastleCo Theatre is trilled to bring Joseph and the Amazing Technicolor Dreamcoat back to the stage for its winter 2024 production! A musical of epic proportions, Joseph brings a comedic twist to the biblical tale of Jacob and his 12 adult sons. When Joseph tells his brothers that he is meant for greatness, their jealousy gets the best of them, and they decide to take matters into their own hands. Featuring a treasure trove of musical stylings from rock and roll, to country, and Caribbean, Joseph is a family-friendly, holiday must see!

This production runs approximately 120 mins. with a 15 min. Performances will be held at Lakeville South High School Auditorium (21135 Jacquard Ave. Lakeville, 55044)

cast list

important:

the cast list for CCT's production of Joseph...Dreamcoat has been posted PLEASE read below before viewing the list

Please find the Cast List below. If you auditioned for the production it is VERY important that you read through the Cast List Email prior to searching for your name. If you are cast as a Full-Time actor, be sure to look through each ensemble group. Most actors will only participate in one ensemble group, but some actors may be assigned to multiple groups.

If your name is NOT listed below, PLEASE audition again in the future! While we wish we could have cast every actor who auditioned, it just wasn't possible for this production. Like we mentioned in the email; Casting a production is like assembling a puzzle. The pieces have to match the picture of the puzzle and they also have to fit together with one another. If your puzzle piece didn't fit into our Joseph puzzle, that doesn't mean it won't fit into the puzzle for a future CCT production. Each production has different needs and comes together differently, and we'd love to work with you in future shows!

Lead and Supporting Roles

Actors who have been cast in lead & supporting roles who have an asterisk next to their name, are either cast in multiple lead/supporting roles or in additional ensemble groups.

ATTN Brothers: Please note that the name assigned to you does not necessarily represent the solos that you will sing in the show. The lead brother soloists are indicated below as Country Soloist, French Soloist and Caribbean Soloist. Other solos will be assigned during rehearsals.

production roles

Narrator (portrays female, approx. 14+) - The Narrator leads the audience through the story as it is acted out on stage. This character must be a strong singer, with comedic presence, and an ability to have chemistry with all other actors on stage. The Narrator sings in a minimum of 15 songs in the show and should plan to rehearse 3-6 days each week. Ability to dance and/or move well is a plus but not a requirement.

Children's Choir (portrays any gender, approx. age 5-13) - A choir of children who work with the Narrator to help tell the story as it unfolds on stage. Actors who are cast in the Children's Choir may be cast in full-time or part-time roles and will sing in between 1 and 5 songs.

Joseph (portrays male, approx. age 16-26) - The youngest son of Jacob, who is obviously the father's favorite. Joseph is a happy-go-lucky guy with a knack for interpreting dreams. Always the positive member of the family, it takes a LOT of misfortune for Joseph to feel down.

Jacob (portrays male, approx. age 70+) - A father of 12 sons, who finds his family fallen on hard times. This role is generally played as an exaggeration of an elderly man.

Brothers (portrays male, approx. age 16-50) - Joseph's 11 brothers, who do not like the fact that their father (Jacob) loves Joseph best. The brothers are often a group with varied ages and appearances. There will be three brothers with featured solos in the songs "One More Angel in Heaven," (country-western feel), "Canaan Days" (Parisian feel), and "Benjamin Calypso" (Harry Belafonte style). The Brothers sing in a total of 10 songs and should plan to rehearse between 3-6 days each week. Actors playing brothers may also be considered for other roles in the show including; Potiphar, Potiphar's Servants, Butler, Baker, Pharaoh, and Pharaoh's Servants. While these characters are typically played by male actors, CCT may consider other genders as well.

Wives (portrays female, approx. age 16-50) - The wives of Joseph's brothers. These actors will sing in 2 or 3 songs. Actors cast as Wives may also be cast as other characters in the show.

Potiphar (portrays male, approx. age 40+) - A witty, flamboyant, villainous character who "owns a large percentage of the Nile". The actor cast as Potiphar may also be cast as other characters in the show.

Mrs. Potiphar (portrays male, approx. age 26-50) - The flirtatious wife of Potiphar, who takes an interest in Joseph's charming looks. The actor cast as Mrs. Potiphar may also be cast as other characters in the show.

Potiphar's Servants (portrays any gender, approx. age 14+) - Servants who work in the Potiphar household. These actors will sing in the song, "Potiphar". Actors cast as Potiphar's servants may also be cast as other characters in the show.

Butler (portrays male, approx. age 16+) - Former servant of Pharaoh who finds himself in an ill position. This character sings in the songs; "Go, Go, Go Joseph," as well as in four songs in the second act. The actor cast as the Butler may also be cast as other characters in the show.

Baker (portrays male, age 16+) - A Baker who finds himself in an ill position. This character sings in the song; "Go, Go, Go Joseph" and its reprise. The actor cast as the Baker may also be cast as other characters in the show.

Go, Go, Go Joe Ensemble (portrays any gender, approx. age 12-26) - A vibrant group of dancers who help Joseph turn the page on the saddest chapter of his story. Strong dancers and/or those with gymnastic/tumbling skills are preferred for this ensemble group. Actors cast in this group will sing in "Go, Go, Go Joseph" and its reprise. The actors cast in this ensemble may also be cast as other characters in the show.

Pharaoh (portrays male, approx. age 24-40) - Ruler of Egypt who has been experiencing some disturbing dreams. This character impersonates Elvis Presley. The actor playing this role should have a large on-stage personality and (ideally) the ability to move/dance well.

Pharaoh's Servants (portrays any gender, approx. age 14+) - Servants to Pharaoh. Actors playing Pharaoh's Servants will sing in 6 songs and should expect to rehearse a minimum of 2 days each week.

audition FAQs

Who can audition for the show?

Usually, CCT auditions are open to anyone age 5 through Adult. During CCT's 2023-2024 season, some changes do apply, due to licensing restrictions for certain shows (see below). Fall Show - King Arthur and Princess Arthena (ages 5 - Adult may audition) Spring Show - Disney and Cameron Mackintosh's Mary Poppins (ages 5 - Adult may audition) Summer Show - Disney's Frozen JR (ages 5 - 18 may audition) While some production roles may require different ages, heights, and vocal ranges, CCT does not discriminate in casting based on race, gender, sexual orientation, ability to pay participation fee, accessibility needs, etc.
Is there a fee to participate?

There are a lot of costs that go into making a great theater production, script licensing, space rental, costumes, sets, technical elements, printing, marketing, and instructor stipends (to name a few). Because of this, CCT charges a participation fee for all actors age 17 and under. (Adult actors are encouraged to volunteer in other ways by assisting with marketing, set move-in, prop construction, etc.) Fees vary by show because the cost to produce the show, and the number of tickets each show is expected to sell, also varies. Fees for most shows are $200 per actor (age 17 and under). Families with multiple actors in the production will pay $200 per actor (for the first two actors in their family) and will pay $75 per actor (for each additional actor). ALL actors must also provide their own shoes and possibly socks to wear for the production. The style of shoe and sock will be based on the character that each actor plays. Financial assistance is available for those who need it (for both participation fees and shoes/socks) and can be registered for after the production has been cast. (CCT does NOT turn actors away due to inability to pay the fee.)
What is the time commitment / when are rehearsals?

The information below pertains to all CCT productions. The time commitment to participate in a show depends on the role that each actor is cast in. Some actors may rehearse between one and six hours each week while others may rehearse 20 hours per week. At auditions, actors will be able to select if they'd like a role that requires less rehearsal and performance time. These roles are called part-time roles. Part-time roles rehearse an average of 1 or 2 hours each week and perform in half the performances. Rehearsals are held Monday-Friday evenings from 6pm - 9:00pm and occasionally Saturday mornings/afternoons. Actors will be asked to fill out a conflict form at auditions. CCT does its best to work around actors' conflicts when possible and will prioritize having younger actors rehearse earlier in the evenings. Playing a sport once or twice each week may be something that can be scheduled around. CCT can occasionally schedule around vacation conflicts, however, priority will be given to those who can attend the majority of rehearsals. It is extremely important that you fill out your conflict form honestly!
How do I prepare for auditions?

Actors MUST register in order to audition for all CCT productions. The registration link can be found towards the middle of this page. Registration is free and secures your audition spot. On the day of your audition, please bring a list of conflicts that can be used to fill out the conflict calendar (if not filled out in advance). You may also wish to bring a pen/pencil and a notebook (or other hard surface) for filling out your audition form. (If possible, we will send an email a week prior to auditions which will allow you to fill out forms in advance and print them yourself to bring with you.) Your audition for a non-musical will consist of an acting audition ONLY. Your audition for a musical will consist of two parts, an acting audition and a singing audition. During the acting audition, actors will be asked to portray different animals, characters or emotions while counting from one to ten. Example: Please count from 1 to 10. At one, pretend you are sad, at 10, pretend you are happy. For the singing audition (used for Musicals ONLY), actors will be asked to sing a short section of a song (around 20-30 seconds is enough). Actors may choose any song they like, but it should be something that you feel confident singing! Your song does NOT have to be from the show you are auditioning for.
What are the Covid-19 guidelines for participating in the production?

There are no Covid-19 guidelines for CCT productions at this time. CCT usually follows school and state guidelines for Covid-19 prevention. Stricter guidelines may be in place for rehearsals during high transmission times. CCT does not require actors to wear masks for performances unless actors have had a recent Covid-19 infection and are still contagious.
