  3. Jesus Christ Superstar


The first musical by Andrew Lloyd Webber and Tim Rice to be produced for the professional stage, Jesus Christ Superstar has wowed audiences for 50 years. A timeless work, the rock opera is set against the backdrop of an extraordinary and universally-known series of events but seen, unusually, through the eyes of Judas Iscariot. The story, told entirely through song, explores the personal relationships and struggles between Jesus, Judas, Mary Magdalene, his disciples, his followers and the Roman Empire.The iconic 1970s rock score contains such well-known numbers as Superstar, I Dont Know How to Love Him and Gethsemane. Fans who saw last years Hair will once again get to sing along with Theatre 55s elder performers in this exciting concert version of the beloved rock opera.The production is directed by Theatre 55 Founder/Artistic Director, Richard Hitchler, with music direction by Raymond Berg, and choreography by Patricia Brown.The cast is headed by Van Nixon as Jesus, Beverly Tipton Hammond as Mary Magdalene, and Gary David Keast as Judas. Lawrence Hutera, who wowed audiences as Dr. Frank N Furter in Theatre 55s recent production of The Rocky Horror Show has the iconic role of King Herod.
