BEVERLY — A production of “Joseph and the Amazing Technicolor Dreamcoat” opening at the North Shore Music Theater on Wednesday will see 24 local children take the stage. Many, for the first time professionally.
The kids are a part of the theater’s education program and range from ages 9-15. They perform as a choir during the play, appearing as children listening to the colorful story of Joseph from the Bible’s book of Genesis as told by a narrator, who is played in this production by Olivia Valli, the granddaughter of famous singer Frankie Valli.
