Harvard-Radcliffe Dramatic Club and BlackCAST present Jesus Christ Superstar
Loeb Drama Center
April 9-12, 2025
Andrew Lloyd Webber and Tim Rice’s timeless show is given new life in this reimagining of a classic. Jesus Christ Superstar is a rock opera that chronicles the final days of Jesus Christ from unsuspecting characters like Judas Iscariot, who serves as a skeptical narrator fearful of Jesus being labeled messiah. This show depicts, interrogates, and deepens the interpersonal relationships of these figures in an attempt to understand the struggles of these series of events from a modernized and musical perspective. Reset in 1972 Oakland; this tells the story of Jesus as an activist figure struggling with a frenzy of followers, surveillance by the government, and labels from the media and closest comrades. The iconic 70s rock score will surely touch new generations and audiences.
Content Warning: This show includes mature content and is not suitable for children under the age of 13. Contains themes of suicide, depictions of intense violence & brutality, loud sound effects, suggested drug use, flashing lights & visual effects, and loud music.
