72 area children swell cast of Civic Light Opera's 'Joseph'

Pittsburgh Tribune-Review: "The Pittsburgh Civic Light Opera production that begins the company's 63rd summer season has a cast that's as epic in size as the story they perform.
To bring this tale to the Benedum stage, director and choreographer Richard Stafford has assembled a cast of 24 principal actors headed by David Osmond, reprising the role of Joseph that he performed in Civic Light Opera's 1998 production, which Stafford also directed.
He's augmenting that cast with 72 area children between the ages of 9 and 15 who are students at the CLO Academy. They are split into two smaller groups -- each group will perform one week of the production, which runs from Tuesday through June 7."
