Jesus Christ Superstar, by Andrew Lloyd Webber and Tim Rice,
tells one of the World’s most well-known and important stories. The show has
been wowing audiences all over the globe since the 1970s and this touring
production arrives in Woking at a topical time of year with Easter just days
away. Opening with Judas and his
concerns with the influential Jesus and culminating with his crucifixion, the
show tells rather than preaches. The writers knew this musical was a risk when
it was being developed but the audience on opening night here clearly
disagreed, rising to their feet.
