Jesus Christ Superstar

The bombastic biblical tuner makes a welcome return as London's Palladium hosts Regent's Park Open Air Theatre's award-winning production of Andrew Lloyd Webber and Tim Rice's glittering staple, Jesus Christ Superstar. Starring Sam Ryder as Jesus, with Olivier Award-winner Drew McOnie choreographing, Tim Sheader directs the world-renowned sensation. Amen!

What’s The Story? A true spectacle filled with demanding musical numbers like Everything’s Alright, Gethsemane and Superstar, Jesus Christ Superstar begins with the arrival of Jesus and his disciples in Jerusalem and explores his struggles as well as radical political themes not explored in the Bible. It also casts Judas as a tragic antihero and offers ironic allusions to modern life.
