Tony-winning director Des McAnuff's take on Andrew Lloyd Webber and Tim
Rice's Jesus Christ Superstar makes its way to Broadway after a
blow-out premiere at the Stratford Shakespeare Festival. McAnuff is joined
by his cast, including Paul Nolan (who plays Jesus), Chilina Kennedy (Mary
Magdalene) and Josh Young (Judas) who comprise the three characters at the
center of a love triangle, now brought to the fore in this updated,
stripped-down (including elements of hip-hop) version of the classic rock
opera. Previews begin Mar. 1 at the Neil Simon Theatre. To see the Playbill
cover for the show and for more on the cast and creatives, click here.
