Jason Donovan is reprising his role as Pharoah for the third time in the new production of Tim Rice and Andrew Lloyd Webber’s classic musical.

He famously originally performed in the hit show as the title character of Joseph in the 1990s – and was asked to recreate the role again.

But he said: “ That didn’t come to fruition and trying to recreate what I’d done in 1991 all these years later with me in my 50s was a bit of a non-starter anyway.”
