You're not Joseph! Public vote Daniel Boys off Any Dream Will Do
|
The public decided live on Â鶹ԼÅÄ One tonight in Any Dream Will Do that Daniel Boys will not be Joseph.
Ìý
After some excellent performances last week, the six remaining Josephs
had to prove to the British public that it wasn't a one-off and they
really do have the power, range and charisma to land one of the best
loved and most prized roles in the West End.
Ìý
Once they had performed their songs and received feedback from Andrew
Lloyd Webber and the expert panel of Denise Van Outen, John Barrowman,
Bill Kenwright and Zoe Tyler, the Josephs faced the agony of the public
vote.
Ìý
When asked by host Graham Norton who was not Joseph, Zoe Tyler and John
Barrowman said Lewis, Bill Kenwright said Keith and Denise Van Outen said
Craig.
Ìý
Daniel Boys and Lewis Bradley gained the least public votes and had to
perform a joint rendition of Bring Him Â鶹ԼÅÄ from the musical Les
Miserables.
Ìý
Then it was up to Andrew Lloyd Webber alone to choose which Joseph should
be saved.
Ìý
He said: "I really don't want to be in my shoes, but tonight
I'm going to save Lewis."
Ìý
Daniel said after his eviction: "This has been the most amazing
experience of my life, I still can't believe I've sung in front of Andrew
Lloyd Webber and six million people."
Ìý
Before leaving the stage Daniel joined the other Josephs for the now
traditional rendition of Poor Poor Joseph/ Close Every Door from Joseph
And The Amazing Technicolor Dreamcoat.
Ìý
This week's group song was She Loves You by The Beatles, while trios
performed That's Life by Frank Sinatra and Don't Rain On My Parade
from the musical Funny Girl, both of which received rave reviews from the
panel.
Ìý
The five remaining hopefuls go on to next week's show where they will
again audition for the nation to decide who could be Joseph in the new
West End production of Joseph And The Amazing Technicolor Dreamcoat.
