LAGRANGE â After being postponed twice, Lakeland Jr./Sr. High Schoolâs theater students finally will showcase their version of the Broadway musical âJoseph and the Amazing Technicolor Dreamcoatâ this Friday and Saturday night on the Lakeland school stage.
First scheduled to be performed last spring, the showâs production was shut down when the state ordered all schools in the state to close because of the coronavirus pandemic. The schoolâs students and staff started preparing to present the show again last fall, but a surge in local coronavirus cases coupled with a series of quarantines that affected many of those in the show made it impossible for the show to go forward. So once again its production was mothballed, and its cast and crew forced to wait for another day.
