Director Tim Sheader said:  

“This isn't just watching a story unfold; it's being inside it. You'll feel the heat of the lights, the pulse of the orchestra, and the energy of the performers. Ten years on from our original production, we wanted to find a way to bring people even closer to the pulsing heart of this piece - and there's no more powerful place to experience it than from within the action itself.”

Joining Sam Ryder as Jesus in his stage debut, are Tyrone Huntley* who returns to his critically-acclaimed Olivier Award-nominated role of Judas Iscariot; Desmonda Cathabel as Mary Magdalene; David Thaxton as Pontius Pilate; six performers sharing the role of King Herod: Jesse Tyler Ferguson (20 Jun – 11 Jul); Simon Russell Beale (13 – 25 Jul); Richard Armitage (27 Jul – 1 Aug); Boy George (3 – 15 Aug, except 8 Aug); Layton Williams (17 – 29 Aug); and Julian Clary (31 Aug – 5 Sep 2026); Bob Harms (Pretty Woman) as Caiaphas; Matty J (Britain’s Got Talent) as Annas; Billy Nevers* (Hamilton) as Simon/Alternate Judas; and Phil King (Jane Eyre) as Peter.
