Lee Mead takes charge of the Technicolor Coat of Joseph and International Theatre & Music Limited are 'delighted'

On Saturday evening LEE MEAD, a long-time client of International Theatre & Music Limited, took charge of the Technicolor Coat that will take him to the stage of the Adelphi Theatre. After 12 weeks of nervous tension in BBC1’s Any Dream Will Do, Lee Mead will be playing the title role in Joseph and The Amazing Technicolor Dreamcoat in London’s West End from Friday 6^th July 2007.

Piers Chater Robinson, Managing Director of International Theatre & Music Limited where Lee Mead has been a client for 3 years commented “We are delighted that Lee has come through the final of Any Dream Will Do with such enormous support. I am glad that the public saw in Lee not only a technically trained singer, but also an actor of repute and an honest and decent guy. Certainly Lee is not new to the trials and discipline needed to perform eight shows a week in the West End, but his debut casting in a title role, in this case as Joseph, clearly shows that the public understands star talent when they see and hear it”.

With previous cover and ensemble roles in Tommy, Miss Saigon, Joseph and The Phantom of the Opera, his casting by the public in the role of Joseph in this new West End production marks his West End casting debut in a title role.
