Anthony Fedorov and Diana DeGarmo, both "American Idol" finalists, star in the Lyric Theatre of Oklahoma's production of Joseph and the Amazing Technicolor Dreamcoat, which begins performances July 21.

Directed and choreographed by Gerry McIntyre, the Andrew Lloyd Webber-Tim Rice musical will play through July 25 at the Civic Center Music Hall. Fedorov stars in the title role with DeGarmo as the Narrator. The cast also features Thomas E. Cunningham as Jacob/Potiphar, Dustin Dubreuil as Pharaoh/Levi and Max Kumangai as Judah.

The production also boasts 80 children, ages 7-16.

"The favored son among eleven jealous brothers, Joseph is betrayed, sold into slavery, and taken far from his home into Egypt," according to Lyric Theatre press notes. "Up against tremendous adversity, Joseph uses wit, faith, and his special gift of interpreting dreams in order to defy incredible odds."

The production also features music direction by Keith Levenson, costume design by Jeffrey Meek, set design by Amanda Foust, lighting design by Helena Kuukka and sound design by George Ryan.

DeGarmo, who has been seen on Broadway in Hairspray and in the national tour of Brooklyn, will join the cast of Off-Broadway's The Toxic Avenger Aug. 14.

Fedorov was seen Off-Broadway in The Fantasticks.
