A technicolour dream in Fairland

FAIRLAND – Reddford House Northcliff learners stun audiences with their stage production of Joseph and the AmazingTechnicolor Dreamcoat.

Reddford House Northcliff‘s stage production of Andrew Lloyd Webber’s Joseph and the Amazing Technicolor Dreamcoat was everything a technicolour experience should have been for audiences.

The school had three sold-out nights to beguile those in attendance with not only their use of colourful costumes and set design but also with actions that could rival some of the best in the world. The school’s Jessica Wright, said: “Energetic performers were met by even more energetic and excited audience members.”

Shaun Hansel, the production’s director, felt privileged to have the opportunity to direct Joseph and the Amazing Technicolor Dreamcoat. “Ever since I watched this production for the first time when I was 10 years old, it has been a dream of mine to somehow be involved in this production.”

For the managing director of the school, Ronel Burger, this was somewhat of a full-circle moment. She explained how the first Andrew Lloyd Webber production she ever produced many moons ago, was Joseph and his Technicolor Dreamcoat. “As a result, I was delighted when it was decided that in this, the last year of my teaching career, to once again make memories with ‘Joseph.’

Leandri Fick, head of the campus, simply quoted Shakespeare, who once said, ‘All the world’s a stage, and all the men and women merely players; they have their exits and their entrances, and one man in his time plays many parts.’ Adding to these words, she praised the learners for their dedication, drive and zeal.
