Open auditions for FPT’s production of Jesus Christ Superstar will be held on Saturday, February 8, (vocal auditions) starting at 1:00 PM, and Sunday, February 9, (dance auditions) starting at 2:00 PM. Directed by Todd Sandman Cruz.
What’s the buzz? The first musical by Tim Rice and Andrew Lloyd Webber to be produced for the professional stage, Jesus Christ Superstar has wowed audiences for over 50 years. A timeless work, the rock opera is set against the backdrop of an extraordinary and universally known series of events but seen, unusually, through the eyes of Judas Iscariot. Loosely based on the Gospels of Matthew, Mark, Luke and John, Superstar follows the last week of Jesus Christ’s life. The story, told entirely through song, explores the personal relationships and struggles between Jesus, Judas, Mary Magdalene, his disciples, his followers and the Roman Empire.
