classic pure - Andrew Lloyd Webber's rock epic Jesus Christ Superstar

Jesus Christ Superstar - the only rock opera by Sir Andrew Lloyd Webber with lyrics by Tim Rice was and is a milestone in musical theatre literature.

Since its premiere in 1971 and above all through the legendary film adaptation in 1973, Jesus Christ Superstar has become a recurring musical hit that has thrilled millions of audiences worldwide - and continues to do so today. Unique songs such as I don't know how to love him, Gethsemane or Heaven on theirminds are classics that are familiar to all of us. Tim Rice's lyrics are based on the liturgy and, together with the immortal music, immerse the audience in the life of Jesus of Nazareth in a highly emotional way.
