Despite all of the children in the school being around eight or nine, Maria Friedman's son Toby Sams Friedman, then four, was among the school children. He is the boy to whom she directly sings at the beginning.
Although the DVD was passed as "Exempt from classification" in the U.K., its depictions of Biblical characters smoking and drinking before an audience of schoolchildren rendered the decision controversial. In one scene, Joseph politely declines the offer of a cocktail.
The original West End production opened in 1972. The Broadway production of "Joseph and the Amazing Technicolor Dreamcoat" opened at the Royale Theater on January 27, 1982, ran for seven hundred forty-seven performances, and was nominated for the 1982 Tony Awards for the Best Musical, Book, and Score.
"Coat of Many Colors" is a mistranslation. According to the highly-respected eleventh-century scholar Muhammed Ibn Ibrahim Al-Thalabi, the original words were "garment with marks". (One of the King James Bible translators added the word "many"). It is not certain what the "marks" were nor what they represented. Some scholars believe that the garment may have been a symbol of Jacob's position as High Priest of the tribe, and that the older brothers were angry because Jacob chose to pass them over and give Joseph the priesthood instead of them.
Joseph's tendency to have prophetic dreams was a characteristic also given to Jesus' father Joseph. Joseph's father's name is Jacob, which was also the name of Jesus' brother, although most English-language translations change his name to James.
"Joseph: Benjamin! You nasty youth, your crime has shocked me to the core. *Never* in my whole career have I encountered this before. Guards! Seize him! Lock him in a cell. Throw the keys into the Nile as well."
"Joseph: Please stop, I don't believe in free love! Mrs. Potiphar: Pity."
