To coincide with opening night, we’re pleased to announce that there will be a DVD and Blu-ray release of the show coming out on the 19th November 2012.
Jesus Christ Superstar Live Arena Tour 2012 is available to pre-order now from the Jesus Christ Superstar website, Amazon and Play.com.
Along with Tim in the role of Judas Iscariot, the fabulous line up includes Melanie C as Mary Magdalene, Chris Moyles as King Herod and Winner of the ITV primetime show Superstar Ben Forster in the title role of Jesus.

I was taken to see jesus Christ Superstar at the NIA Birmingham on 5th October. Tim Minchin stole the show. He was absolutely amazing. As an older lady I had never come across any of his performances before, but was very impressed with just how talented a singer and actor he is. If you can get to see the show, do go, you will not be disappointed.
Thank you Tim it was the best birthday present I have had in a long time.
