Quiz Answer Key and Fun Facts

1. "But if by chance you are here for the night then all I need is ________." Fill in the lyrics.

Answer: an hour or two

This is from the "Prologue" of the musical where we first met our narrator who would take us through the magical journey of Joseph.

2. "I wore my coat with _______."

Answer: golden lining

"Any Dream Will Do", a famous tune from this musical, sung by Joseph after the narrator's "Prologue", in the Original Canadian Cast Recording.

3. "May I return to the beginning? The light is ______ and the dream is too." What's the missing word?

Answer: dimming

This was also a line from the end of "Any Dream Will Do". Right after this, our narrator took us to witness the story of Jacob and his sons.

4. "______ was the eldest of the children of Israel." Who was it?

Answer: Reuben

In "Jacob and Sons", our narrator told us of the twelve sons of Jacob and the eldest was Reuben. The rest of them were Simeon, Levi, Napthali, Issachar, Asher, Dan, Zebulun, Gad, Benjamin, Judah, and of course Joseph.

Answer: multi-coloured

This was from "Joseph's Coat" where we could see how the brothers were jealous of Joseph and they got even more jealous when Jacob bought Joseph this dazzling coat of many colors.

6. This might be a little bit difficult, which color was not featured in "Joseph's Coat"?

Answer: puce

There are 28 colors mentioned in this song but none of them is puce. Puce is actually featured in "Masquerade" from the musical "The Phantom of the Opera" by the same composer.

7. "The accuracy of the dream we brothers do not know. But one thing we are sure about _______ has to go."

Answer: the dreamer

From "Joseph's Dreams", this was when Joseph told us of the dreams he had. One was about the eleven stars and the other was about the eleven sheaves of corn. The brothers, annoyed by his dreams, were planning to get rid of the dreamer.

8. "Next day far from home, the brothers planned their _______ crime."

Answer: repulsive

Yes, they planned to fling Joseph in a pit and they did but later decided to sell him to the Ishmaelites instead. Then they tore his coat and dipped it in goat's blood to lie to Jacob that Joseph was dead after a fight with a... GOAT!

9. "Joseph was taken to Egypt in chains and sold, where he was bought by a captain named _______."

Answer: Potiphar

Joseph was bought by Potiphar from the Ishmaelites, but his life wasn't as bad as you think. Joseph was really a cut above the average and he was promoted to be the leader of the household.

10. "Poor, poor Joseph, locked up in a _____."

Answer: cell

After Potiphar found that Joseph was having some affair, unwillingly, with his wife, he was mad and ordered Joseph to be locked up in a cell.

11. "Close every door to me, hide all the world from me, bar all the windows and ____________."

Answer: shut out the light

A great solo, "Close Every Door", described to us how sad Joseph was during his time in jail.

12. "Children of _______ are never alone."

Answer: Israel

Still from "Close Every Door", at the end of this song, Joseph told us that he would find his own peace of mind for he had been promised a land of his own.

13. "Tell me of your dreams, my friend. And I will tell you what they show. Though I cannot guarantee to get it right, ___________."

Answer: I'll have a go

In "Go, Go, Go Joseph" was where we met two other prisoners, the baker and the butler. They both had dreams that they didn't understand and asked Joseph to interpret them.

14. The Baker told his dream first.

Answer: False

It's the Butler who told his dream first and got a good message that he would be set free, while the Baker got the message that he would be executed soon. Joseph ended his interpretation with "I have not been wrong before."

15. What's the last word of the last song of the first act?

Answer: time

In "Go, Go, Go Joseph", the last song of the first act, the last word was "time" as in "ahead of your time". That's it. The second act is coming soon. Hope you enjoy my quiz!
