First released as a concept album in 1970, Jesus Christ Superstar quickly became a cultural phenomenon before debuting on Broadway in 1971. The show tells the story of Jesus Christ’s final days, focusing on the complex relationship between Jesus and his disciple-turned-betrayer, Judas Iscariot. The rock opera, featuring hit songs like “Superstar,” “Gethsemane,” and “I Don’t Know How to Love Him”, is set to bring a high-energy, visually stunning, and emotionally powerful rendition of this timeless story.
