Why see Jesus Christ Superstar?
Lloyd Webber's Classic Rock opera
In 1971, Andrew Lloyd Webber and Tim Rice's latest musical debuted on Broadway and the world of musical theater was never the same again. A bombastic rock opera based on the Gospels, Jesus Christ Superstar portrays the last week of Jesus' life, heavily focusing on his relationship with Judas Iscariot. Imbued with modern sensibilities and contemporary political and social themes, this show is about a very human Jesus Christ, one who must reckon with his impending death.
Aside from cleverly bringing the Passion into the 20th Century, Jesus Christ Superstar of course boasts one of Lloyd Webber's most exuberant and exciting scores, including the now classic numbers 'Superstar and 'I Don't Know How to Love Him'. As both a vital part of Broadway history and a top-draw musical, this show is a must-see!

Exhilarating
I was so excited knowing I was going to see my favorite soundtrack in person.
From the moment Judas ( Elvis Ellis) sang Heaven On Their Minds, I was riveted.
The talent in this production is amazing.
Jesus Christ ( Jack Hopewell) was perfect .
Faith Jones as Mary Magdalene was superb.
It flowed perfectly from moment to moment.
I was prepared for the more modern costumes( sweatshirts, hoodie) because I saw the John Legend version on tv.
Honestly, the story and talent was so overwhelming the clothing was secondary.
The Safe Credit Union Theater doesn’t have a bad seat.
I wish I could have seen it again before it left.
Amazing, emotional, simply fantastic.

I had chills several times throughout the show. I wish I could have personally congratulated the entire cast. Bravo! I highly recommend this show! ... Read more
