It's because the lady playing the Narrator and Jason Donavan are already well established performers. The boy playing Joseph is new to the business just after drama school. If you notice same applies in films when newcomers take the main part. Christopher Reeve played Superman in 1978 film, but his name in opening titles was displayed after Marlon Brando or Gene Hackman. Brando was only few minutes on the screen, cashed way more money and didn't bother to learn his part, but read it from cardboards held by assistants.
Now I LOVE Sheridan however she was just shocking as the narrator - it was incredibly self-indulgent and all about her. I know that is what Laurence wanted but it was too ott and pulled focus too much. Was also not a fan of Laurence's decision to have Jac, Jason and Sheridan share the final bow - it's called Joseph and the Amazing Technicolor Dreamcoat, NOT Pharaoh/The Narrator and the Amazing Technicolor Dreamcoat. Other than that (and how meh the set design was), I absolutely loved this production.
I don’t mind if the narrator has the final bow but the fact that Jason bowed after Jac was insane. Star or no star. It’s Joseph. Not Pharaoh lolol. But I do love all of them
Yeah. I saw the show with her and the stand in narrator and the stand in was so much better. Sheridan made it to seem al me me me and didn't suit the role
This mega mix at the end of the show revitalized this show. Great to add the kids and make it a true celebration. Great for touring. I saw it in Hong Kong with Donny Ozmond and HK Chinese kids. The kids were fantastic.
Pharaoh doesn’t deserve the second last bow. He doesn’t do nearly as much as Joseph, who only gets the third last bow. Pharaoh should be third last, then Narrator, then Joseph. In a show called Joseph, it sure is strange that Joseph gets the third last.
Agree I never saw her,I got to see it this year with Alexandra Burke as narrator and she was absolutely amazing ..sorry Sheridan has a beautiful tone to her voice but she does NOT suit this role at all
Who the f. is that woman playing the narrator?! Jeez, she might be a well known actress in the UK but she's not the star of this show. It should be actor playing Joseph.
They must have been exhausted after this. So much energy!!!
Having done a production of Joseph, I can say with confidence that you are 110% right!
At the end of the show, no less. I miss theater.

I love Jac, Jason and Sheridan at the end
thanks so much for posting this. insane energy. the first four minutes in particular is so hype.
This looks amazing xx 😘
AWESOME JOB!!!
💜💙💚❤💛
brilliant bravo wonderful show
Love.
I saw this 30 years ago with Jason Donovan at the Palladium
Jason returned to Joseph to play the Pharaoh in the west end revival of Joseph.
Joseph should have got the last bow!!!
Was it the narrator who got it? I got a bit confused
@@ItsLeo-wi2sv yes the Narrator got it. But Joseph is the one that should have the final bow.
@@ciaranmarsh255 yeah, I don't see why there was such a big entrance for the narrator

This takes a lot of energy I have done this before
I can’t believe Jac Yarrow did this as his last year of his Degree at ArtsEd!
Sheridans performance was incredible as the narrator best version of Joseph I've seen.

Sheridan, will you do this non stop dance-a-thon?
Sure! If you get me the most comfortable costume in the history of theatre!
Woo
Yeah
NAH IS THAT WHAT MY FRIEND WAS IN 💀
This would've been the best cast :D
I remember this revival! The Sheridan Smith show..............
She was the narrator, who runs the show, plus she performed as the director had directed...
@@vsepkes it's Joseph and the amazing technicolor dreamcoat not narrator with Joseph and the amazing technicolor dreamcoat... had enough of it.
I was in a performance in America of this show and we had a really hard dances and I was really tired
Not being funny but why did Sheridan Smith get the final Bow then Jason? Jac should have gotten it. X

Agreed. This is insane. And the narrator is not great. And that curtain call makes no sense.
Yeah. I saw the show with her and the stand in narrator and the stand in was so much better. Sheridan made it to seem al me me me and didn't suit the role
I also didn't like the decision to replace the iconic coat. The original coat was symbolic of the show. The staging was great I thought
Alexandra burke was WAY better
This is absolutely phenomenal, the energy on that stage is unreal.
(But why did Joseph’s curtain call come before Pharaoh? That’s so weird haha)
Joseph should always get the last bow
I was thinking this. Only reason I can think of is they’re doing the last 3 by billing, making Sheridan smith top
@@TomWardman oh wow, maybe
Still so wrong haha
This mega mix at the end of the show revitalized this show. Great to add the kids and make it a true celebration. Great for touring. I saw it in Hong Kong with Donny Ozmond and HK Chinese kids. The kids were fantastic.
do you have the whole video?? OO
Pharaoh doesn’t deserve the second last bow. He doesn’t do nearly as much as Joseph, who only gets the third last bow. Pharaoh should be third last, then Narrator, then Joseph. In a show called Joseph, it sure is strange that Joseph gets the third last.
I never seen it on play
Alexandra Burke wipes the floor with Sheridan Smith
Sheridan is no Linzi!
its a different production what do you expect?
Linzi was amazing in Joseph. This production looks like its been done on a budget
Linzi is back in Joseph at the London Palladium this summer
@@williamfairchild7439 And Linzi got such a welcome, such applause. The ultimate Narrator. In a class above the rest.
@@michaeltrew7683 Yeah I agree with that
Wow amazing! Is this a recent musical?
A new production of a very old musical.
Is it the one coming to newcastle
Ok.
What are the three characters’ names that take a bow before the children?
Theý are gooď
I love these means comments lol
Hey I did this show at my theatre in Lebanon it was so much fun .😊
After seeing this I'm glad I never went to London to see this. Sheridan Smith definitely is not right for the role of the narrator
Agree I never saw her,I got to see it this year with Alexandra Burke as narrator and she was absolutely amazing ..sorry Sheridan has a beautiful tone to her voice but she does NOT suit this role at all
Who the f. is that woman playing the narrator?! Jeez, she might be a well known actress in the UK but she's not the star of this show. It should be actor playing Joseph.
The Original Production Looks much better
Im sorry to say that this looks so shoddy and cheaply made.... 😪
It was just the mega mix at the end...
The energy is there. 👍
Yer when i was in it it was so much better quality
Unfortunately its the new style of show, even the touring production is like this
This is just noise....
the only good thing about this is Jason Donovan
Nice to see him back with Joseph this time as the Pharaoh..and Linzi as the narrator.
Pretty horrible.
This looks so cheaply made and like a high-school production
Awful, like a school production.
