Presented by: The Really Useful Group and Frontier Touring
Tickets On Sale: Tue 7 May, 9am
The Really Useful Group and Frontier Touring are thrilled to announce that the new arena production of Jesus Christ Superstar will tour Australia in 2013. The production will commence its Australian dates in Perth on May 31.
The show stars Australia’s own
Tim Minchin as ‘Judas Iscariot’, former Spice Girl
Melanie C as ‘Mary Magdalene’ and the critically acclaimed new-comer
Ben Forster in the role of ‘Jesus’. Australian additions to the tour will see
Jon Stevens returning to Jesus Christ Superstar in the role of ‘Pontius Pilate’ (Stevens played Judas in the 1992 Australian arena tour and the 1994 theatre production) and
Andrew O’Keefe in the role of ‘King Herod’.
Andrew Lloyd Webber says: "I'm thrilled that Australia is to be the first leg for our international tour of the new Jesus Christ Superstar. We had an overwhelming reception when the show toured the country for an astounding 84 dates in 1992. I hope this new production, which has been totally re-conceived for the 21st century, will entertain a new generation of Australians as well as those who already love the show."
