JESUS CHRIST SUPERSTAR to Play Birmingham Hippodrome This November

Directed by the unstoppable Bob Tomson and Bill Kenwright, the duo behind Evita (in the West End and on tour) and Blood Brothers. This new production of Tim Rice and Andrew Lloyd Webber's ground-breaking rock opera Jesus Christ Superstar will be at Birmingham Hippodrome from Monday 2 to Saturday 7 November 2015, as part of its current UK tour.

The production stars leading performer Glenn Carter who returns as Jesus, a role he has played in the West End, on Broadway and on film. His extensive musical theatre credits include leading roles in Whistle Down the Wind, LES MISERABLES, Joseph and the Amazing Technicolor Dreamcoat, Godspell and Merrily We Roll Along.

Australian star Tim Rogers plays Judas Iscariot. Tim's musical theatre credits include The Man in Whistle Down the Wind (UK Tour and West End), West Side Story, Jersey Boys, The Full Monty, Aspects of Love and the title role in Jekyll & Hyde at the Union Theatre. Most recently he starred in Carousel at the Arcola Theatre London.

X Factor finalist Rachel Adedeji plays Mary Magdalene direct from the UK and European tour of Thriller Live.

Jesus Christ Superstar exploded onto the musical scene in 1971 and tells the story of the last seven days in the life of Jesus through the eyes of Judas Iscariot. As compelling today as it was at its inception over 40 years ago, Jesus Christ Superstar features some of musical theatre's most legendary songs from I Don't Know How to Love Him, Everything's Alright, Gethsemane and Superstar.
