Exploding onto the Mainstage is the groundbreaking theatrical masterpiece Jesus Christ Superstar by legendary writing team Andrew Lloyd Webber and Tim Rice. This extraordinary rock opera highlights the struggles of Jesus of Nazareth and Judas Iscariot during the last week of Jesus's life. With a vibrant score of chart-topping hits like "Superstar" and "I Don't Know How to Love Him," Superstar is timeless and tremendously powerful.
Jesus Christ Superstar was WONDERFUL! I had seen it on Broadway in NYC back in the '70's. This performance was just as good, if not better! So glad to be able to see this show - especially on Good Friday!
Simplistic Set~ Fantastic, flamboyant cast! I grew up with the album~ my parents saw the original! I wore out the vinyl~ and still Do! This production did it fantastic justice. Introduced the show to my husband for his birthday~ his parents had seen the original as well. He was also dancing in his seat ( very rare for the straight~laced introvert!). The cast truly captured the story with tonal attitude in delivery and enormous powerhouse vocals! I have to mention the one tiny dancer who stole every scene she was in! ( look for her, then again your eyes will migrate to her.) If I had one critique~ The orchestra missed the one moment that usually brings my goosebumps to life. When the iconic notes are hit the first time ~ the slowing for dramatic effect and amazing FORTE was lacking. That moment is the moment that pushes all of your senses over to the depth of the event and who HE really was, what he DID FOR US. Hit it hard, loud and long with a hard kettle drum between!
Great production of a classic. Orchestra played like the original!
Amazing singers and great choreography - the costumes were also great
I saw Jesus Christ Superstar performed by the NC Theatre on Sat night. The show was magnificent. The actors had explosive and moving voices. The stage set was just right. The dancing was mesmerizing. I highly recommend this show!
We attended the show on Good Friday. It was an incrediblely moving experience. The "local" talent did a fine job in their roles. It was a pleasure to see.
Jesus Christ Superstar was amazing! Great music, singing, acting and costume! Loved it!
The acting and singing of the key characters was outstanding. Familiar story, but still contained high drama. Terrific set that functioned well. The sound was very good and the cast was simply superb - especially the actors who played Jesus Christ and Judas.
The music was very good and the singing was excellent. Quite moving.
Our family ages 10-68 loved it! What a great treat on Holy Thursday!
I have wanted to see this since the 70's and it was wonderful!
The music was great and the voices were amazing! Aleks was perfect to play Jesus.
A very talented group of performers did justice to the genius of Andrew Lloyd Webber and Tim Rice. I seen this in the early 70's in Maryland and this production was even better. Start to finish never a disappointing moment.
Have listen to album for years, finally got to see show. I was blown away! Every aspect, singers, stage, music... just wonderful.
Overall it was a wonderful production! I thought the pit band was a bit " off" with timing and tuning (Wed. Night) and the actor who played Caiaphas was often difficult to hear/understand.
Great production. Wonderful experience. Did not disappoint.
I saw this live when I was a teen. 40 years later I loved it even more. The original sound track did not include the song "Could We Start Again, Please." The movie did though and I loved it! This performance did the song. The scenes were well done and the performers were wonderful!
This is one of the best musicals I have ever seen in my life. There is so much passion and energy in these talented folks. The musical score is fantastic and the dancers and actors give 110%. Go see before it's gone!
I have loved this show since it was new. I've seen it onstage, at the movies, and in television productions over the past 40(ish) years. The music alone is enough reason to go, but the talent in this show was through the roof! Jesus, Judah's, Mary, and Peter were especially phenomenal, but the entire cast was fabulous. And hats off to the director for the best and most imaginative staging I have seen...ever!!
I ended up not going due to illness. However, I gave my tickets to a friend of mine and she asked another friend to go. To her surprise she enjoyed it so much and the friend she had taken has the album from the early 70's. My friend is hooked, she now wants to see other plays and/or musicals. I have a friend name Jesus and he is my Lord and Savior, Amen Thank you for bringing the show to Raleigh NC
