About this Performance

A global phenomenon that has wowed audiences for decades, Jesus Christ Superstar is a timeless work that explores the biblical portrayal of the extraordinary events that led to the death and resurrection of Jesus Christ as seen through the eyes of his betrayer, Judas Iscariot. The story, told entirely through song, explores the personal relationships and st

I heard she's playing prophet Muhammad in "Keir Starmer the Musical" so she might not be available.

Or even longer nails

All jokes aside, I'm glad the Bowl is bringing the musicals back in such a big way. The slow demise of them over the past 5 years was sad to watch.

I remember back in the day when it'd be more like: "Cynthia Erivo? Jesus..."

Judas is the juicier role but you know how things are these days.

Some MAGAbrain on another site who seems to know a lot about the entertainment business claims that people are tired of this woke **** and predicts that this movie is going to bomb.

This. I don't understand the hate for Erivo, who has done nothing but exceptional work in New York and simply killed in the Wicked film. Yes, the Great Comet debacle was embarrassing for everyone involved, but it doesn't take away from her talent. I'd argue she's the best singer of her (which also happens to be my...) generation.

I've already booked a trip to LA for the Cowboy Carter tour, but when I told my husband about this performance, he immediately started looking into going back in August. I certainly have no complaints.

I would see Cynthia Erivo in anything. I’d see Christine Ebersole in anything. I care most about the art. It’s not even about ‘forgiving’ them it’s just simply being so focussed on the actual art that you don’t really think about anything else.

Unfortunately, I just got off the phone with them. They were very nice, but their hands are tied. I will have the option of trading my show as always, but I doubt my good seats will be a possibility. Additionally, I have a sneaking suspicion these seats will cost more than my subscriber trade value.
