Three concerts of Andrew Lloyd Webber and Tim Rice’s hit musical Jesus Christ Superstar are being shown at Saint Joseph Regional High School in Montvale, New Jersey, this weekend.
The shows kick off tonight and plays Saturday March 31 and Sunday April 1. A portion of the proceeds will be donated to Covenant House, New Jersey.
The cast will be lead by Danny Zolli, who has played the lead role in a number of international productions of Jesus Christ Superstar, and will also include Shayna Steele/Christine Hicks as Mary Magdalene, Robert Cuccioli/David Weitzer as Pilate, Michael Park as Peter, David Velarde as Annas, Michael Lanning as Simon, Lawrence Clayton as Judas, Raymond Jaramillo McLeod as Caiaphas and Kirby Ward/John Patrick Shutz as Herod.
Written when Webber was just 17 and first shown in 1970, the rock opera features such songs as ‘Everything’s Apart’, ‘I Don’t Know How To Love Him’, ‘Gethsemane’ and the title tune.
