Costumes have been cre- ated, songs have been prac- tised, the set has been painted, the lights and sounds have been programmed into the computers, actors have been blocked into positions and all the hand props and furniture organized and planned. Choreography is also a large part of Joseph. The three choreographers, Leise Peddie, Mary Neill and Sandy Brown, have worked tire- lessly to teach and polish the moves and dances on stage. Their work included teaching dances and movements to sin- gles, pairs, small groups or four and eight, and all the way up to the whole company of about 55 participants. This is a daunting task since the KTG troupe consists of various ages of persons with various abilities and back- grounds of dance experience. The actors have been very positive in wanting to learn the dance moves and have been keen when going through the numerous prac- tices of those movements. It was sometimes difficult getting the hands and feet coordinated but the chore- ographers are proud of all that has been accomplished by this total group on stage. Joseph and the Amazing Technicolor Dreamcoat is a family show that is a feast for your eyes and spirit. This upbeat, fun produc- tion should not to be missed. Tickets are selling very well and some performances are almost sold out. Get your tickets at J'Adorn on Queen St or call the box office, 519-396-9000. GO, GO, GO JOSEPH!
