About the event
Andrew Lloyd Webber and Tim Rice’s timeless show is given new life in this reimagining of a classic. Jesus Christ Superstar is a rock opera that chronicles the final days of Jesus Christ from unsuspecting characters like Judas Iscariot, who serves as a skeptical narrator fearful of Jesus being labeled messiah. This show depicts, interrogates, and deepens the interpersonal relationships of these figures in an attempt to understand the struggles of these series of events from a modernized and musical perspective.
