Why see Jesus Christ Superstar?
A Heavenly Affair!
The bombastic biblical tuner is blessing stages across the UK following sell-out runs at The London Palladium and Theatre Royal, Drury Lane! Starring Sam Ryder as Jesus, with Olivier Award-winner Drew McOnie choreographing, Tim Sheader directs the award-winning production of Andrew Lloyd Webber and Tim Rice's glittering staple. 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.

Jesus Christ Superstar. Fantastic!
Saw the show last night at the Empire. A truly awesome experience. The lyrics and music are as great as when they were first written. A huge thanks to all involved in the show. The artistes are brilliant. Every single performer gave their all and are hugely talented. The musicians played perfectly. The set was really impactive, costumes brought the show to date, make up really impactive. The staff at the Empire were so friendly and capable. We ordered break snacks to our seats, a really nice touch. All in all a great night, and an awesome show. Thank you all. ... Read more

What an amazing performance
I first saw a production of this musical back in the 70s at the Empire. I was not disappointed with this one. Amazing choreography, staging and vocals. Fabulous appearance by Julian Clary as Herod which lifted the mood at the right time. Very intense finale. Truly an experience. It’s brilliant to have shows of this quality so close to home. ...
