Which show would be best for kids?

We will be in London in July, and we’re thinking of taking the kids to see a show. There are £15 tickets available for Joseph, and The Prince of Egypt.
Can I ask here for recommendations as to which would be more entertaining for children (8,10)? Or maybe both/neither?

Anyone? I know it’s not the most scintillating topic for a Friday evening 😂.

Joseph is a classic imo.
It was originally written as a school play for children I think.
There are kids in the show too, which might appeal, and it’s very visual, colourful costumes and not too long.

Another vote for Joseph!

Joseph definitely. But make sure you have kids like the ones I saw it with (teacher, so not a comment about my own kids) who recognised that actually Joseph is a bragging, self-obsessed ass-hole and the brothers were right to hate him (paraphrasing as the kids were 10yrs old and put it a lot nicer than that!)

Ah, brilliant. Will book Joseph (and hope that we are able to travel). Thanks everyone.
