Newest Review: ... succeed. 20 of us arrived at the Opera House in Manchester to see this full of anticipation and excitement. I was glad to see that the stage production was in the same vein as the recorded video by virtue of having the same director in Gale Edwards. The stage consisted of a two tier walkway, separated by a platform that moved from the s tagefloor to the top of the ceiling out of view. The cross was hanging behind this at the start and during the overture, lit up very brightly, which was handy as the dry ice had hidden the first ten rows of punters, and scarre... more

I've just realised an lifelong ambition and learnt a bitter lesson. I have wanted to see Jesus Christ Superstar at the theatre for a long time, but for some reason or another have always missed - and not living in London hasn't really helped the matter.

I think this is probably my favourite musical, and I have seen quite a few. The music ranges from upbeat to haunting and will stay with you for days after you have seen it, as will some of the scenes from it.

The acting was absolutely superb and the voices of the singers/actors were amazing too, everyone really put their heart and soul into it which does not always seem the case with every musical or play. Many of the songs are very catchy and I liked the whole thing so much I bought the soundtrack. The end scenes are shocking, moving and will ...  Read the complete review
