DESCRIPTION
The Theatre in the Park's Season 2010 debuts with what is sure to be an unforgettable production of Jesus Christ Superstar. It seems especially fitting that the first rock opera, created as a concept album at the end of the turbulent ‘60’s, should have at its center a social and political rebel. Jesus’ meteor-like rise in renown provides, as the title suggests, a parallel to contemporary celebrity worship. As his radical teachings are evermore embraced, Judas increasingly questions the enlighten motives of this new prophet, resulting in betrayal. Christ’s final days are dramatized with emotional intensity, thought-provoking edge and explosive theatricality. Propelled by a stirring score, by turns driving and majestic, satirical and tender, Jesus Christ Superstar illuminates the transcendent power of the human spirit with a passion that goes straight to the heart.Interested in upgrading?
