    I must confess, I saw this production locally many years back and hated it. I felt that the multiple song styles gave it a very uneven feel that didn't flow well. However, this version changed my mind. Not sure what it is, but somehow this works. Donny Osmond makes a decent Biblical hero and the narrator keeps what sounded like a musical mess onstage flowing together in a way that almost makes sense.
