If you are a musical lover, there’s a treat coming for you on The Show Must Go On. Each Friday they will be sharing an Andrew Lloyd Weber musical for free for 48 hours. For a little while longer you can see a production of Jesus Christ Superstar. My sisters and I grew up on the movie version of this musical and can sing it start to finish!
Here’s how the presenters describe this version…
Jesus Christ Superstar (2012): Director Laurence Connor presents this contemporary re-imagining of Andrew Lloyd Webber and Tim Rice’s legendary rock musical Jesus Christ Superstar. The world renowned phenomenon portrays the story of the last seven days of Christ leading up to his crucifixion as seen through the eyes of Judas Iscariot. Filmed as an arena rock opera, the performance features a star-studded line-up which includes award-winning musical comedian, Tim Minchin as the role of Judas Iscariot; pop icon and former Spice Girl Melanie C as Mary Magdalene; radio DJ Chris Moyles in his stage debut as King Herod; and Ben Forster, to take on the title role of Jesus.
