Jesus Christ Superstar

Adapted from Andrew Lloyd Webber and Tim Rice's Broadway rock opera, Jesus Christ Superstar recounts the last days of Jesus Christ (Ted Neeley) from the perspective of Judas Iscariot (Carl Anderson), his betrayer. As Jesus' following increases, Judas begins to worry that Jesus is falling for his own hype, forgetting the principles of his teachings and growing too close to the prostitute Mary Magdalene (Yvonne Elliman). After Jesus has an outburst in a temple, Judas turns on him.

Ted Neeley and Yvonne Elliman will appear at the NoHo 7 on Feb 26th, Royal on Feb 27th, Claremont 5 on Feb 28th, and Newhall on Feb 29th, at 7 pm with a brand new remastered sing-along digital print! Both stars, who played Jesus of Nazareth and Mary Magdalene, respectively, will do a pre-film talk about the making of the movie and their memories of director Norman Jewison.

Celebrating the 50th anniversary of the film, the reunited cast members will also be signing autographs and taking photos with fans.
