Jesus Christ Superstar

The first musical by Andrew Lloyd Webber and Tim Rice to be produced for the professional stage has wowed audiences for over 50 years. The groundbreaking rock opera, set against the backdrop of an extraordinary and universally known series of events, is seen through the eyes of Judas Iscariot. Loosely based on the Gospel, Superstar follows the last week of Jesus’ life, exploring the personal relationships and struggles between Jesus, Judas, Mary Magdalene, the disciples and followers, and the Roman Empire. Contains such well-known numbers as “Superstar,” “I Don’t Know How to Love Him” and “Gethsemane.”  This matinee is performed at Riverside Center for the Performing Arts with, as always, great seats as well as a Three-course, Plated Lunch before the matinee begins.
