The life of actor and singer Carl Anderson will be celebrated 7 PM May 10 at the Ford Center for the Performing Arts on West 42nd Street in Manhattan.

Family, friends, celebrities and industry professionals will pay tribute to Anderson, perhaps best known as Judas in the film and stage show, Jesus Christ Superstar, with musical performances and brief eulogies.

Anderson, who in recent seasons had been touring in his most famous role in a new revival of the Andrew Lloyd Webber hit, died Feb. 23 after a battle with leukemia. He was 58.

The memorial service will be open to the public, however seating is limited. Donations to the Carl Anderson Fund will be accepted.
