Jesus Christ Superstar in London

Following phenomenal demand for Jesus Christ Superstar at the London Palladium, Tim Sheader's electrifying production transfers to Theatre Royal Drury Lane in the heart of Covent Garden this autumn.

Secure your tickets for this must-see theatre event of the year today!

What Is Jesus Christ Superstar About?

Jesus Christ Superstar retells the final days of Jesus, from the perspective of his disciple Judas Iscariot. The production is set against a backdrop of political unrest and growing public fascination with Jesus Nazareth, who continues to challenge the Roman authorities with his growing influence over people. Whilst the growing tension between his followers, religious leaders, and the Roman authorities fizzes underneath, Jesus Christ Superstar will ultimately lead to betrayal and crucifixion.

The musical features the timeless rock anthems, including “I Don’t Know How to Love Him”, “Gethsemane”, “Heaven on Their Minds”, and the title number “Superstar”.
