CAPACITY audiences enjoyed a two-night run of Joseph and the Amazing Technicolor Dreamcoat at Malvern Girls' College.

More than 70 pupils from the lower school took part in the production last Friday and Saturday, which has been praised by the college's director of music, David Evans.

"This was part of an initiative to encourage more girls to be involved in the performing arts, having put on a senior school production last year of Jesus Christ Superstar," he said. "The girls really pulled out all the stops and made it a fantastic event, which they all enjoyed enormously."
