Jesus Christ Superstar (Touring) Tickets

Even in his finest vocal moment, Hopewell couldn't even come close to sounding better than Neely's worst! It felt like his singing all moved toward trying to pull off Neely's remarkable vocal range. You could feel the strain and inadequacy of the moments where he was shrieking. Judas was brilliant as was Mary Magdalene. I believe Jack Hopewell could have inhabited the role of Jesus and make it uniquely his own. Relying on his own vocal style, inflection and interpretation of the song. All the moving parts of the rock opera Jesus Christ Superstar have to synchronize with one another for the audience to be appropriately elevated to an enviable spiritual place. Hopewell's limited vocal range inhibited that from occurring. This musical needed to be built around the vocal's and stage presence of Jesus; not simply include Jesus as just another role to be filled.

So glad I didn't miss this touring production. I love JCS so much and this special anniversary presentation was a welcome steward of the piece. It did it's own thing while upholding some traditional elements that fans expect which is a perfect balance. The choreography in particular was sharp and electric. Solid performances, amazing lighting design, and extra features that really made it special. For instance, turning Judas' hands silver to symbolize his betrayal was a stroke of genius. Absolutely loved it and wouldn't mind owning a proshot. However, it can live rent free in my mind.

love the show recommend the show to all my families and friends

Fantastic show! The performers were excellent, as well as the music. It was well orchestrated, and the sound quality was outstanding.

This is my 8th time seeing Hesus Christ Superstar and I loved the costumes and makeup. The choreography was amazing. The best surprise was Jack Hopewell, his portrayal of Jesus was among the best I've seen (I've seen Ted Neeley) but most of all his renditions of Gestheme, which is my favorite song, was the best I have ever seen or heard.

I've been a fan since the 70's! Great voices that could hit the high notes!

This performance blew my socks off! Seemed to follow the 1970 Original Studio Cast orchestration and civilization - the version I acted out and sang with my siblings through the mid-70s! Imaginative use of a smaller stage with lead musicians in 2 stories of windows! Brilliant! Jesus, Judas, Mary were all powerful, but I’m always taken by the bass notes of Caiaphas, particularly if he can get that low! By Gosh, he got that low! I’d see it again if this traveling show stayed around long enough! Bravo!

An excellent performance by the entire cast - really liked the member of the cast who stood out in all the group events.

My fourth time in 50 years. Every time is different, and all have been excellent. This contemporary production had strong performances. Mary Magdalene in particular conveyed incredible emotion. A pity DC was the end of the run.

While I realize that it's impossible to recreate the 1970s version, I was a bit disappointed with the level of talent. It was entertaining but left me a but "blah". While I can appreciate the artistic interpretation of that "tormented"dancer character, it was too distracting. I did enjoy the Pharisees. They were spot on.

This production of JCS was sublime. I have been listening to this rock opera since I was 10 years old. I've seen different performances of it over the years. This production was simply outstanding. The cast, set, choreography, dancers, music, lights, every detail was perfect. I just want to see it again. Luckily I did see this show show twice, once in Washington DC and once in Schenectady NY. I LOVE LOVE LOVE IT! (I'm thinking I'mma Elvie groupie now, lol.) Excellent job all around. mucho love out.

A last-minute purchase in Right Mezzanine Row H for 2 PM and pleased. Stage setting made the L-Mezz a better selection. Price was reasonable. Great way to spend a rainy Saturday. My 4th show, last within 8 mos. Touring company production was acceptable. Mary not strongest actor and I have enjoyed a stronger JC. Sadly, the final scene was missing some of its grandeur and feeling. Too rushed. No serious complaints but not a memorable production. Happy for the experience.

The National Theatre has horrific acoustics and all the cast did while singing is yell. Where is the dialogue?

My husband and I have seen Jesus Christ Superstar previously at National Theatre and loved it so much we came back. This performance was a completely new perspective on an impactful story! Both renditions were amazing - yet completely different and so original. The passion and energy on the stage was contagious and engaging with the audience. Well done! While all of the performers were unbelievably talented and deserve accolades - Elvie Ellis as Judas was a standout for us. He is a true actor, musician and entertainer! The emotion he delivered brought tears to my eyes. As well as Grant Hodges as Caiaphas. I have recommended the show to others and hope they are able to get tickets and enjoy the musical!

My wife and I have been Superstar aficionados for 50 years. We know every note of the score and every word of the libretto, though I favor the movie version to any other. This cast did an awesome job of adapting the existing score to the stage and adding their own flourishes. The actor who played Jesus had the incredible vocal range needed to play the role well. Judas could have added more emotion and expression to his part, but the role is challenging and he did a great job upholding the memory of Carl Anderson as Judas. The cast did a great job with choreography with both modern and traditional dance moves to illustrate the passion of the story. The roles of Pilate and Herod were played with excellent emotion and comic relief. Overall, a wonderful interpretation of a powerful rock opera.

This was a remarkable performance. The costumes, music , choreography and actors were stellar. There was such intense emotion and energy coming off the stage that it brought me to tears. Well done!

If you’re a JCS purist, like me, you’ll love this production.

I saw the show Saturday night. I did not love it. Several of the performers were very talented but I thought the staging was strange, there was a lot of distracting modern dance, the music was too loud, and some of the singing was almost shrieking. I love Broadway and revivals, but I would not recommend this one.

I had to miss the play because I had emergency surgery prior to the night of the play.

Very moving performances by everybody - music was great. Wish they would be in town longer so others in my family could go.
