Jesus Christ Superstar to be Presented
November 5, 6 & 7 at Beaver River
|
Posted: October 30, 2009
Jesus Christ Superstar, a
rock opera by Tim Rice and Sir Andrew Lloyd Webber, will be
presented on the Beaver River Central School stage on November
5, 6 and 7. Curtain for all three performances will be at 7:30
p.m.
Jesus Christ Superstar first opened on Broadway in 1971. It has
enjoyed many revivals and amateur performances since. The show
revolves around the political aspects of Jesus’ time and the
interpersonal struggles between Judas Iscariot and Jesus. It is
also based on the canonical gospels, dramatizing the final week
of Jesus’ life. Although there have been many interpretations
presented over the past 38 years, we will take a more
conservative stance, using the script as a tool to teach the
historical aspects of the time.
