Goofs During the first act, Jesus' bracelets on his right wrist come and go throughout the numbers, from one camera angle to another, within a seconds. In the second act, they stay on his wrist. User reviews 12 Review. Top review. Excellent show. Firstly, I have to say I would have seen at least 10 versions of the show, plus, of course, the movie.
I also went to see the Arena spectacular at the brand-new Perth Arena. It was brilliant. I thought the 3 leads were totally brilliant, in particular Tim Minchin, who is a Perth boy. This was the best iteration of this show I have ever seen, and I have also performed in the house band on a couple of them as well. I have seen Gillan, thought he over-sang, the best until now was John Farnham, but Forster wins for me. I can't understand one or two of the reviewers here, one said it was too modern?????
The story was in set in 33AD, they didn't have tanks, helmets or metal scaffolding then either, but it's always been a part of the charm of this show , the juxtaposition of the times. I loved it. In case you can't tell. Details Edit. Release date November 19, United Kingdom. United Kingdom. Official site. Technical specs Edit.
Growing up in Perth, his parents had a copy of the original soundtrack from the film. He and his brother would sing through it from the lyric sheet. In his early teens he saw a production in Perth and played Pontius Pilate in a Perth amateur production.
I never got to play him so I had this massive unresolved issue. I hope it goes without saying that I never expected to play him at Wembley Arena," he says. The cast of the British production is on board for the Australian tour, with Jon Stevens, who played Judas in the Australian arena production, returning to play Pontius Pilate. Minchin's comedy career happened by accident when he couldn't get a break as an actor or songwriter. I love comedy because the autonomy is a thrill, but by the time Matilda came into my life I was craving the group process.
Minchin's crazy-busy life continues apace. Last year he switched to TV, playing the role of dissolute rock star Atticus Fetch in the latest season of TV comedy drama Californication, not yet screened in Australia.
I would be in a field in England doing a festival and then I would be in LA opening a door buck naked in front of all these cameras. I was, "What the f am I doing, what is my life? As it turns out, all the multi-skilling he learned trying to survive in his 20s is now serving him well. But first comes convincing hundreds of thousands of Australians that history's most famous traitor is worth their sympathy. He told presenter Kirsty Young, "I reckon I sang this song standing in my parents' living room, to the vinyl original recording, about times, and subsequently got to understudy the role of Judas in two separate Perth productions of JC Superstar but I never played the role and I keep thinking one day I'm going to play Judas.
I just love it because it is just pain and rock. Nonetheless, Matilda's West End success has made Minchin a hot property in the theatre world. He recently picked up the Olivier award for best new musical and a keenly awaited Broadway production is currently in production. Jesus Christ Superstar, which was the subject of protests when first produced, has faced a different kind of criticism second time around.
