What then to do about this Jesus-mania? How do we deal with a carpenter king? Where do we start with a man who is bigger Than John was when John did his baptism thing? Fools, you have no perception! The stakes we are gambling are frighteningly high! We must crush him completely, So like John before him, this Jesus must die. For the sake of the nation, this Jesus must die.

Jesus Christ Superstar: The Concert – Regent’s Park Open Air Theatre – Review

“From Fri 14 Aug we are delighted to re-open our theatre with #JCStheConcert – a special concert staging of Jesus Christ Superstar, created by the team behind our multi-award winning production.”  I don’t think I’ll ever forget the joy I felt reading those words in July.  They meant that after months of bad news, something wonderful was happening.  They meant that theatre was back.

I got to see the Jesus Christ Superstar at the Barbican in London tonight and it was SO GOOD (this is the production that transferred from the Regents Park Open Air Theatre)

In my experience, JCS productions tend to err on the side of a technically brilliant Jesus who can just about act his way through the show (because Gethsemane is HARD. It's one of, if not the most technically difficult songs that male leads will ever be asked to perform) and a Judas who can more or less stay in key but is a fantastic actor. Honestly Robert Tripoli I as Jesus is a little weak, or we got him on an off night (or I'm just not a big fan of this trend of Jesus letting his voice crack over the high notes. I'm demanding, I want a technically brilliant and emotionally satisfying performance. Sue me) but Judas?????

Ricardo Afonso was a revelation. His voice is outrageously strong, his range is super impressive and I can't remember the last time I've seen a male lead exercise that much control over his voice. He absolutely belted the 'every time I look at you I don't understand...' from The Last Supper and the force of his accusation against Jesus was just fucking flawless. He hit every emotional beat right on the head and you just couldn't not feel for him the entire beat through. Urgh!!! Favourite Judas ever hands down and it's gonna be a long time before anyone tops him.

Mary, played by Sallay Garnett, had a really interesting, not standard musical voice. I would have liked her to be a bit more physically expressive but it was really great to hear some texture to the vocal performances that you don't often get with musicals

The Pharisees in general were done fantastically. I loved them flipping their sceptres over to become microphone stands. Calvin Cornwall as Caiaphas had all the right charisma for the kind of leader I can totally believe everyone falling bin line with and Nathan Amzi was a fantastically simpering Annas who's turn as Judas I would LOVE to see as he was understudy for the role.

Herod came in looking like a gold blimp with a train on his dress that covered half the stage. He was very silly, with BIG makeup. His attendents were dressed with bloody plates around their necks like the halos you often see around saints heads in biblical art which created this really creepy vibe as they're doing these silly camp dances all covered in blood. I think this was supposed to be a reference to the killing of St John the Baptist?

The colour palette for the production was pretty well fixed. Most of the stage was done up in white, beige, greyish blue and gold highlights. The exceptions to this were the blood, which was shown as red as it should be, and Pilate (and later on Judas) who was dressed in black (which didn't stand out that much from the overall pallet). But when Judas went to the Pharisees, when he refuses and refuses to take their money, Caiaphas grand his hands and forces them into the treasure chest they were using to represent the payment and when they came out they were caked in silver paint, marking Judas's treachery and he didn't wash his hands for the entire rest of the show!!! So he stood out like a sore thumb with his silver hands

When Pilate first came on just before Simon Zealotes to judge the crowd he was clearly hung over, drinking a beer, with his good pulled up over his head and his guitar bouncing along his back and he looked like a total waster who would rather be literally anywhere else and it was cool

It was a very stripped back production with minimal use of props and when they needed props they tried to make them out of sound equipment that the band might be using. Main characters were always singing into held microphones, meaning that when Judas hangs himself he could hang his microphone and have it hit the same note (his mic cable was red to signify his blood). When Pilate comes into judge Judas his microphone had a cable and he flicked it like it was a whip. Jesus was tied for his lashes with more microphone cables and crucified on mic and speaker stands

The production was super physical and the dance team and choreographer clearly worked HARD on it. There were physical motifs used throughout the production to show different character groups and emotions, with Judas's doubt represented by a specific dancer who opened the whole show and would frequently appear as a silhouette in the dry ice mist

And on top of that, they had a full band on stage. No synth trumpets or flutes or anything. All the rockband instruments, brass, woodwind, strings and piano. It sounded amazing and brought depth and power to so many of the songs in the show that I hadn't even considered before

Overall it's just an astonishingly good production and I cannot recommend it highly enough

Jesus Christ Superstar – Barbican Theatre – review

Timothy Sheader’s Jesus Christ Superstar is one of those rare shows that I would recommend to absolutely anybody. With its killer music, incredible choreography, and jawdropping vocals, plus a stellar cast, this show has it all. It’s a powerful, profound piece of theatre that’s also a phenomenally enjoyable watch.
