PROLOGUE

Some folks dream of the wonders they'll do

Before their time on this planet is through

Some just don't have anything planned

They hide their hopes and their heads in the sand

Now I don't say who is wrong, who is right

But if by chance you are here for the night

Then all I need is an hour or two

To tell the tale of a dreamer like you

We all dream a lot - some are lucky, some are not

But if you think it, want it, dream it, then it's real

You are what you feel

 

POTIPHAR

Narrator

Potiphar was counting shekels - In his den below the bedroom

When he heard a mighty rumpus - Clattering above him

Suddenly he knew his riches - Couldn't buy him what he wanted

Gold would never make him happy - If she didn't love him

Letting out a mighty roar

Potiphar burst through the door

 

Potiphar

Joseph, I'll see you rot in jail

The things that you have done are beyond the pale

 

Narrator

Poor, poor Joseph, locked up in a cell

Things ain't going well, hey, locked up in a cell

Poor, poor Joseph, locked up in a cell

Things ain't going well, hey, locked up in a cell

Locked up in a cell

PHAROAH’S STORY

Strange as it seems
There's been a run of crazy dreams
And a man who can interpret could go far
Could become a star

Could be a star!

CLOSE EVERY DOOR

Just give me a number - Instead of my name
Forget all about me - And let me decay

I do not matter, I'm only one person
Destroy me completely - Then throw me away

If my life were important I - Would ask will I live or die
But I know the answers lie - Far from this world

Close every door to me,
Keep those I love from me
Children of Israel
Are never alone

For we know we shall find
Our own peace of mind
For we have been promised
A land of our own

 

SONG OF THE KING #1

Well the bad corn ate the good corn

Man they came up right behind - yes they did
Now Joseph here's the punchline

It's really gonna blow your mind - flip your lid
Well the bad corn was as bad as it had ever ever ever been
Well this dream has got me all shook up, treat me nice and tell me what it means

 

SONG OF THE KING #2

Hey hey hey Joseph won't you tell poor old pharaoh

What does this crazy crazy, crazy, crazy dream mean. Oh yeah!

Actors should be ready to Slate* their Name and Age
*Slate=Slating” is the industry term for introducing yourself in an audition, whether it's in-person, virtual, or self-taped. The exact information you provide in a slate will depend on what the casting team asks for, but often includes your name, height, and location.

Remember to:

Smile, Have Fun, Be Loud, Have Personality
