A global phenomenon that has wowed audiences for over 40 years, Jesus Christ Superstar is reimagined for the 21st century as an arena rock spectacular. Tim Rice and Andrew Lloyd Webber’s groundbreaking rock musical now features an extraordinary cast of rock, pop and R&B superstars.
Jesus Christ Superstar is a timeless work set against the backdrop of an extraordinary and universally-known series of events but seen, unusually, through the eyes of Judas Iscariot. Tim Rice, who wrote the lyrics, was inspired by the Bob Dylan anthem ‘With God On Our Side’ which features Judas in its penultimate verse and is from Dylan’s seminal 1964 album The Times They Are A-Changin’. As Tim says in his autobiography: “From a very young age I had wondered what I might have done in the situations in which Pontius Pilate and Judas Iscariot found themselves. How were they to know Jesus would be accorded divine status by millions and that they would as a result be condemned down the ages?”
