Scoop sent over word that Andrew Lloyd Webber fans will be able to see Jesus Christ Superstar on the big screen during a special two night theatrical event later this month. NCM Fathom Events, Omniverse Vision and The Broadway League present Jesus Christ Superstar UK Rock Spectacular in select cinemas nationwide for two nights only on Monday, October 29 at 7:30 p.m. (local time) and Thursday, November 1 at 7:30 p.m. (local time).
This special in-theater event features a star-studded cast including actor/singer Ben Forster as Jesus, Tim Minchin as Judas Iscariot, and Melanie Chisholm (aka Mel C from the Spice Girls) as Mary Magdalene.
The theatrical production originally opened in the West End in 1972, and has been reimagined to capture today's audiences with its classic musical numbers. The evening will begin with an exclusive historical retrospective on this iconic show, including interviews with past and present cast members.
Jesus Christ Superstar UK Rock Spectacular will be broadcast to more than 575 select movie theaters across the country through NCM's exclusive Digital Broadcast Network. Tickets are available at participating theater box offices and online at www.FathomEvents.com
