With an eclectic cast, the show will star Australia’s Tim Minchin as ‘Judas Iscariot’, former Spice Girl Melanie C as ‘Mary Magdalene’ and critically acclaimed newcomer Ben Forster in the role of ‘Jesus’. Under the direction Laurence Connor, Jon Stevens and the ever saint like Andrew O’Keefe will be joining them. Arguably Australia’s most popular musical, Jesus Christ Superstar first came to life as a chart topping double album in 1970 and ran for 82 nights with John Farnham as savior in 1992.
