"In this new revisionist 2010 version," press notes state, Jesus Christ Superstar "will have controversial issues relating to today's times. It will have a post-apocalyptic vibe set in a tone of a long form rock/dance music video amidst modern-day taboos." Topics addressed include "the war in Afghanistan, gay rights, social issues, gun violence."
George Frey Performing Arts Center is located at 10-10 20th Street in Fair Lawn, NJ. For tickets, priced $20 (general admission) or $18 (seniors/students), call (866) 811-4111.
