‘Joseph the Dreamer’ 2025 Run Full Cast Announced
As previously reported, Joseph the Dreamer is set to return to the stage this July, this time at the Carlos P. Romulo Auditorium of RCBC Plaza.
Written by Freddie Santos and based on Cam Floria’s cantata Dreamer: What Really Happened to Joseph, Joseph the Dreamer draws from the biblical story of Joseph, the 11th son of Jacob. Set on a path of greatness, Joseph faces trials that test his faith. Fueled by jealousy, his brothers sell him into slavery—unaware that this cruel act would lead him on an extraordinary journey of hope and trust.
Sam Concepcion returns to play the titular role alongside Gary Valenciano, who is back as Jacob. Jordan Andrews joins the cast to play the role of Judah, as well as Joseph in select performances.
“This is my 30th year in theater, and I had dreamed of playing a lead role. Now I get to play Joseph. It is such a special way to mark a career milestone,” Andrews shared. “And I’m stepping into huge shoes! It’s not just Sam [Concepcion] and Neo [Rivera]. It’s the people I look up to that have played Joseph before us— Tito Gary, Tito Audie, Tito Franco! I’m so excited!”
Carlo Orosa also reprises his role as Pharaoh, with Lorenz Martinez joining the cast as his alternate. Kayla Rivera returns as Asenath, with Naya Ambi joining as her alternate. Aicelle Santos and Julia Serad join the cast as Rachel.
Reprising their roles as Joseph’s brothers are RJ dela Fuente (Reuben), Matthew Barbers (Simeon), Carlos Canlas (Levi), Paul Valdez (Dan), Jim Ferrer (Naphtali), Renz Bernardo (Gad), and Mateo Jimenez (Benjamin). New additions include Luis Marcelo (Zebulun), Sam Panlilio (Issachar), and Ken San Jose, who alternates with Jimenez as Benjamin.
Aldo Vencilao also returns as Mr. Potiphar, while Dippy Arceo and Sheena Lee Palad join the cast as Mrs. Potiphar. Clave Sun and Liam Nery will share the roles of Manasseh and Young Joseph.
Rounding out the cast are returning ensemble members Justine Narciso, Coleen Paz, and Kathleen Francisco, with new members Iya Villanueva and Daniel Solis, who also serves as male swing.
Joseph the Dreamer is directed by Paolo Valenciano, with musical arrangements by Myke Salomon and choreography by MJ Arda. Lorenz Martinez serves as assistant director for the 2025 run.
