	Jesus Christ Superstar
		JESUS CHRIST SUPERSTAR opened on Broadway on October 12, 1971, at the Mark Hellinger Theatre and was the first musical by Tim Rice and Andrew Lloyd Webber to be produced on the professional stage.
		Jesus retorts by saying that there will always be poverty in the world and that they will never be able to help everyone.
		Exhausted and despairing, Jesus collapses and dreams that he is surrounded by the poor, the sick and the needy.

	Jesus Christ Superstar (Site not responding. Last check: )
		Judas says Jesus is "starting to believe this talk of God is true", and throughout the opera Jesus seems to have a vague sense of a divine mission that drives him to his death, but he understands it fatalistically.
		The Jesus of Superstar is Jesus through the eyes of Judas, making the opera, in a sense, the "Gospel According to Judas" (keeping in mind that we are speaking of Judas the 20th Century Everyman, not the historical Judas).
		Jesus Christ Superstar is not simply a capricious alteration of the Passion story, but rather is an expression of a struggle for faith in the modern world.

	Jesus Christ Superstar
		Jesus Christ Superstar, which tells the story from Judas Iscariot’s point of view, is a humanized look at the last days of Jesus, taking much of their inspiration from the often glossed over passages of the Gospels.
		More then anything else, Jesus Christ Superstar is a powerful piece of theatre, presenting a different view of the man who would have to give up his earthly existence to accept his destiny.
		After watching Jesus lose control in the temple, lashing out at the moneylenders and merchants, then begging to be left alone when a crowd of cripples surround him asking to be healed, Judas is more convinced than ever that the man from Nazareth is just that--a man, and nothing more.

	Jesus Christ Superstar - a rock opera by Andrew Lloyd Webber and Tim Rice
		Jesus Christ Superstar chronicles the last seven days in the life of Jesus of Nazareth as seen through the eyes of his disciple, Judas Iscariot, who has become disillusioned with the movement.
		After all, in Judas' mind, Jesus is only a man--a man with certain inconsistencies, as evidenced by his relationship with Mary Magdalene.

	MILESAGO - Stage Shows 1964-75 - Jesus Christ Superstar
		Superstar tells the story of the last seven days of Jesus' life as seen by his favourite disciple Judas, who has become disillusioned with Jesus and fearful of the road he is taking.
		Superstar appeared as an LP long before it was produced on stage and in fact it was the success of the record which led directly to the first stage production -- the first and probably the only time a major stage musical has been successfully launched in this manner.
		Jesus was dressed in a simple but striking bright red long-sleeved shift with a fl stripe around the collar which extended down the centre of the front of the costume.

		It's not hyperbole to state that "Jesus Christ Superstar" has had far greater impact on my own religious beliefs than any other single event in my life.
		"Jesus Christ Superstar" has been staged countless times over the past several decades, but for aficionados there are really just three significant artifacts.
		This is the version that features then-obscure rocker Ian Gillan (of Deep Purple) as Jesus Christ, and it comes with a handy booklet of lyrics for those who'd like to follow along at home.

		Jesus Christ Superstar was a 1972 musical co-written by Mel Gibson and Jesus Christ himself.
		Jesus Christ Superstar was a huge critical success, but the general public was unable to appreciate the work.
		The failure of the play started a chain of events, Jesus spent the rest of his life in bitter desperation, struggling with substance abuse, an addiction to pornography, and backstabbing Jews trying to nail him to a 2x4.

		Jesus dies on the cross and, in this version of events, he stays there, leaving his followers and antagonists to wonder just who he really was.

		Jesus is a shock to "Israel in 4 BC" as he would be today.

		It may not have been the first rock opera (the Who's Tommy was released in 1969), but Jesus Christ Superstar was a legendary album long before it hit the stage, thanks to Tim Rice's compelling book and lyrics combined with Andrew Lloyd Webber's irresistible music.
		Telling the story of the last days of Christ from the point of view of Judas (Murray Head), the still-unmatched original cast also stars Deep Purple's Ian Gillan as Jesus and Yvonne Elliman as Mary Magdalene, the role she made into a career (with a cameo on the Saturday Night Fever soundtrack).
		Jesus Christ Superstar was one of those moments in childhood, like the Mets winning the series in 1969, that have stayed with me all my life.

	KNAC.COM - Reviews - Sebastian Bach Jesus Christ Superstar
		Sebastian’s portrayal of Christ angered at vendors for using the temple as a marketplace, or the fear he showed in Gethsemane as he was praying to his father about his impending fate, captured my complete and undivided attention.
		Although Jesus Christ Superstar originated in the 70’s, this company of actors with Sebastian Bach at the helm has the potential to bring a whole new generation into the theatre.
		"Jesus Christ Superstar" could have been profound and inspirational if it incorporated the theme of salvation; instead it's a play which gained renown only for being quirky, irreverent, and controversial.

	Film as Art: Danél Griffin's Guide to Cinema
		To transform the life of Christ into a rock opera in which literally every word is sung and every scene is danced to is a lofty goal.
		At least Godspell, the other Christ musical, kept it simple and intimate; the main problem with Superstar is that it loses itself in the splendor and grandeur of it all, yet even the splendor and grandeur consist of boring sets, bland costumes, and hit-and-miss songs.
		Christ’s humanity would not be a problem with me if the filmmakers had at least created an interesting character out of him.

		Around the same time, Christian writers like C.S. Lewis were international superstars, selling millions of copies of The Screwtape Letters, a satirical correspondence between two devils strategizing about the best way to tempt their human target and thus bring him to spiritual ruin.
		For nearly 2,000 years, the story of Jesus and broader biblical epics had infused the cultural environment of the average Westerner.

	:: rogerebert.com :: Reviews :: Jesus Christ Superstar (xhtml)
		Norman Jewison's "Jesus Christ Superstar" is a bright and sometimes breathtaking retelling of the rock opera of the same name.
		The life of Christ would seem to have an innate dignity to it, but only in such rare films as Pier Paolo Pasolini's "The Gospel According to St. Matthew" or Martin Scorsese's "The Last Temptation of Christ" has Christ come off as human, strong and reachable.
		Jewison is wrong, of course, to blame the death of Jesus on the Jews; the Roman Catholic Church, which hasn't exactly been in the vanguard on this question, officially decided some years ago that the doctrine of collective Jewish responsibility was in error.

	Theatre Mirror Reviews - "Jesus Christ Superstar"
		The original Judas is being covered by the singer who sang Jesus --- since he can't play opposite himself (although I wouldn't put it past him.) The role of Jesus is being played by the former Mark.
		His Jesus is other-worldly and naive, a true lamb of god...which makes the crucifixion unbearably hard to watch, and gives the spirituality of the show an unexpected boost.
		"Jesus Christ Superstar" struck a resonant chord in the newly dawning Age of Aquarius.
