After a flood of local productions, we only have one show on tap for this week - but it's a good one! "Jesus Christ Superstar" will be presented by the Marshall Artists Series Wednesday at 8:00 p.m. at the newly-expanded Keith-Albee Theater.
I have several reasons for liking this show - which I'll share in an upcoming post. But you should be anxious to see it, too, because it may be your last chance to see the actor most associated with the title role.
This performance is part of the farewell tour for Ted Neeley, who played Jesus in the 1973 film based on the musical. Just for fun, let's see if yours truly can insert a video here - click on the window below to see Ted singing the powerful song "Gesthemene."
