Presented by: GMG ProductionsThe Olivier Award-winning Regent’s Park Open Air Theatre production of Jesus Christ Superstar arrives in Christchurch this December as part of a major international tour.
Following sold-out seasons in London and acclaimed tours across North America, the UK and Australia, this electrifying reimagining of Tim Rice and Andrew Lloyd Webber’s global phenomenon comes to New Zealand for a strictly limited season.
Featuring lyrics and music by Emmy, GRAMMY, Oscar and Tony winners Tim Rice and Andrew Lloyd Webber, this powerful rock musical explores the extraordinary final days of Jesus Christ — told through the eyes of Judas Iscariot.
Told entirely through song, the iconic 1970s score includes Superstar, I Don’t Know How to Love Him and Gethsemane.
Directed by Timothy Sheader and choreographed by Drew McOnie, this award-winning production has been praised as:
“A gorgeous, thrilling, heavenly musical.” — The Guardian
“Hallelujah! An almighty revelation.” — The Daily Telegraph
Winner of the 2017 Olivier Award for Best Musical Revival, this bold and contemporary staging brings fresh intensity to one of the world’s most celebrated musicals.
