Chris and I will be there on Saturday.

I don't know what seating is left. We bought ours on Feb. 6th- and they were $58 for center orchestra. Second balcony was a little bit cheaper.

However, I am a HUGE fan of the Ted Neeley version, but this show (I found out yesterday) is a 2000 version of JCS. The director decided to make the play more "modern" and the robes and sandals (and I'm assuming the flashy Judas fringe) has been updated to a costuming line similar to what you would buy at the Gap. The photo I saw has Judas wearing a leather jacket. I am not thrilled. I have been looking forward to this for months, just to find out that it will be lacking in the pomp and circumstance that made the play fantastic. But I am going to give it a fair and enthusiastic chance!

GOD! I wanted to see it when I went to NY, but I saw the Lion King, which is brilliant should one go. I can't afford it though.

My stepdad is taking me. Never seen it before, but sounds entertaining.

I'd like to play Herod; great lyrics:

So, you are the Christ, you're the great Jesus Christ.
Prove to me that you're divine; change my water into wine.

Yep.

My mother saw that musical when she was in college

Then about 6 years ago when I was in college I saw it........I LOVE that musical....very thought provoking....Its adueling message.....but my favorite message being that how wrong and odd it is to commecialize your faith.
