Ted Neeley, best known as the star of the Norman Jewison film of "Jesus Christ Superstar," as well as the Broadway and National Tours, helped launch Ventura's Rubicon Theatre Company back in 1998.

Initially announced for two performances only in the 1,400-seat venue, Rubicon's Superstar quickly sold-out, a third show was added, and Rubicon Theatre Company was born.
