Portraying the story of Jesus Christ's last six days on earth, Broadway legends Andrew Lloyd Webber and Tim Rice have penned this tale from a modern perspective. 

Using original rock songs to narrate the life of the most famous person in the world, Jesus Christ Superstar explores the personal relationships and struggles between Jesus, Judas, Mary Magdalene, his disciples, his followers and the Roman Empire.

Starring Ian McIntosh (We Will Rock You, Follies) as Jesus, Shem Omari James (Dreamgirls UK Tour) as Judas and Hannah Richardson (Sting's The Last Ship) as Mary, this experienced and talented cast will have you fully immersed into the life of Jesus Christ. 

Choreographed by Drew McOnie (King Kong, Strictly Ballroom) with music and lyrics by multi-award winners Andrew Lloyd Webber and Tim Rice, the legendary score includes hits such as 'I Don't Know How To Love Him' and 'Gethsemane'!

With an extremely capable crew and star-studded cast, Jesus Christ Superstar will have the audience captivated with this award-winning theatre production.
