joseph be probably andrew lloyd webber best show and because it intentionally derivative and and everything else he write have be unintentionally derivative . take one calypso number and one country number and one french bistro number and etc . and et al . and and you have get a hit . throw in an astonishingly illiterate script ( famine hand will stalk the land how that for a mixed metaphor . ) and and you have get a mega hit . i do and to my surprise and like donny osmond in joseph . ain not enough . the overwhelming unoriginality and tedious score and 2d grade libretto easily make it one of the bad musical ever . a tim rice candidly state in an interview and the best line in the show be the list of the colour in joseph coat . and i do not even write that .
