Review: Cynthia Erivo and Adam Lambert Lead Spectacular JESUS CHRIST SUPERSTAR at the Hollywood Bowl
by Michael Quintos - Aug 3, 2025

When it comes to the Hollywood Bowl's Summer 2025 production of the Andrew Lloyd Webber / Tim Rice classic rock musical JESUS CHRIST SUPERSTAR—which opened August 1 for three sold-out performances playing throughout the weekend—there are just not enough superlatives to bestow upon one of the most astonishing, incredibly entertaining summer musical revivals this historic venue has ever presented on this stage. Seriously, this is so insanely good, buoyed by amazing performances from its entire cast, led by Cynthia Erivo in the title role and Adam Lambert as Judas. A ferociously-performed, mesmerizingly robust new iteration that feels like an intentionally mind-blowing hybrid of arena-rock concert and musical theatre in its most explosive sense, this glorious production—directed and choreographed by Sergio Trujillo—is appropriately amped-up both visually and sonically.
