Where Are They Now? The Rob McVeigh Edition
Rob the Builder became my favorite underdog after the early elimination of Johndeep. So what has the sixth eliminated Joseph been up to since exchanging his hard hat for a colored coat?
Rob went on to sing "I Owe It All to You" for Eurovision 2008 and was part of Snow White and the Seven Dwarves with reality show staple Jade Goody. Rob also showed up on "I'd Do Anything," Webber's quest to find Nancy for the West End stage. He did a group number with the remaining six Nancys (and five other Josephs), "Dancing in the Street."
If anyone else has any further information on Rob the Builder, let me know!

Where Are They Now? The Chris Barton Edition
Tonight we move on to the fifth person to be cut from "Any Dream Will Do," Chris Barton! What's he been up to since turning in his colored coat?
He too ended up in Bill Kenwright's touring production of "Joseph and the Amazing Technicolor Dreamcoat," playing one of Joseph's 11 brothers. Kenwright also chose Barton to participate in his boy band "Dream On," along with Chris C and Antony.
The last I can find on Chris B is that he played Benny in a production of "Our Benny" in the Liverpool Empire.
If anyone has any further updates on Chris B, please share!

Where Are They Now? The Seamus Cullen Edition

Following this, he was cast as Che in the UK touring production of Evita, as announced by Andrew Lloyd Webber on "I'd Do Anything." He still records with his band.

Where Are They Now? The Antony Hansen Edition
Antony Hansen, he of the angry girlfriend, is our next Joseph to check up on. What has Antony been doing since he left "Any Dream Will Do"?
He's been in "Joseph and the Amazing Technicolor Dreamcoat," of course! His time on the show, though brief (Antony was the third Joseph eliminated from competition), impressed judge Bill Kenwright so much, he cast the lad in his touring production of the Webber-Rice show. Antony first played the role of Napthali, one of Joseph's 11 jealous brothers, then was promoted to Pharaoh. Finally, he assumed the role of the dreamer himself--Joseph--and finally got to wear that coat of many colors.
Antony was also featured in a concert at the Oxford New Theatre entitled "An Evening with Antony Hansen."
Along with Chris C, Antony was part of "Dream On," a boy band comprised of cast-off Josephs.
If anyone has any other information on Antony, please share!

Where Are They Now? The Johndeep More Edition
Welcome back to Where Are They Now: Any Dream Will Do! Tonight, we discuss the fate of Johndeep More.
Johndeep, as you may remember, was one of my early favorites and had the tugging story about how his family had never heard him sing before. Sadly, they didn't get to hear too much on the show as he was the second voted off. After leaving Any Dream Will Do, Johndeep has performed in plays like "Bells are Ringing," "Assassins," "Seussical" and "The Red Peppers." He also was part of the pantomime "Cinderella" along with fellow Joseph alum Chris C.
According to his MySpace page, Johndeep is currently touring in Spain with "Bollywoodland: Love Never Dies."
Johndeep's MySpace also contains examples of his singing. If anyone else has any updates on Johndeep, please share!

Where Are They Now? The Chris Crosby Edition
I know it's been almost a month since Joseph ended and Maria began (and I have the Maria episodes stored on my DVR), but laptop problems have kept me off the blog for some time. However, I'm back with my promised updates about our Josephs!
Chris C had the dubious honor of being the first person kicked off "Any Dream Will Do" and turn back his multicolored coat. That same year, he was cast in the pantomime of Cinderella. He started 2008 by joining the musical Half a Sixpence. The same year, he joined the group Dream On. The group was created by Bill Kenwright and featured other Joseph alums.
That's where my info on Crosby ends. If anyone has any other information, please share!
