And if you like the hit song, Any Dream Will Do, then you're in for a treat because Joseph and his friends sing it about five times, and mostly during the encore.

This version of Tim Rice and Andrew Lloyd Webber's hit West End musical is presented by Bill Kenwright by special arrangement with The Really Useful Group.

Bill was on the expert panel of judges of the BBC reality television show, Any Dream Will Do, which searched for a star to play Joseph in the West End production.

And he's cleaned up after Sir Lloyd Webber's succession of reality television searches and casted the rejects.

There's Tara Bethan, a wannabe Nancy from I'd Do Anything, and Craig Chalmers, who plays Joseph, Antony Hansen, who plays Pharaoh/ Napthali, Alistair Brammer, who plays Zebulun and Simon Murphy, who plays Dan, who all tried out for Joseph in Any Dream Will Do. It reeks of desperation.

Craig and Antony are also members of Dream On, the boy band made up of the five finalists from Any Dream. And Craig does a meet and greet while flogging his album to the fans after the show.

They all make a child-friendly cast - smiley and energetic - and suit the corny and funny atmosphere. Dancer and actress Stephanie Harrow's handmaiden performances are particularly bouncy.

The Pharaoh's rendition of Elvis with his hip swinging moves, the Benjamin Calypso complete with hula girls and Those Canaan Days, with its melancholy French style, are all highlights.

The whole thing is a bit rough around the edges but the kids won't notice, they will be too busy singing, cheering and clapping throughout the 15 minute encore - a good chance for the men to get in some dad dancing!
