Well he still was I guess is the principle message here - he feels what he does is necessary (ironically for the same reason as Caiaphas "for the sake of the nation") and is chewed up with guilt after because even if it was God's will and for the greater good, he has still betrayed a friend and a good man to death.

No, this is a bad version. Badly sung and badly played. Only the actor playing Pilate is really good. The singer of Jesus ruined “Gethsemane”; he couldn't reach the high notes. The 2012 JCS Arena Tour was impressive. Ben Forster as Jesus and Tim Minchin as Judas - simply incredible! Ben Forster sang the best “Gethsemane” I’ve ever heard! This is what “Gethsemane” must sound like: kzread.info/dash/bejne/jJWJ1rV-Yty9k5s.html

It is always interesting to see the different ways this musical is put on the stage in different countries.

Even with an average-not-great Jesus, this is far and beyond my favorite production - the staging and chorus are amazing, and DREW SARICH AS JUDAS!!! He takes the whole thing from “great” to “transcendent”. Also just aesthetically my favorite treatment of “Superstar” the song. Just overwhelmingly wonderful.

Best could we start again. The harmonies are superb.

Judas *_* Drew Sarich is the best singer on this world! He's just brilliant and his voice is out of this world!

with all the respect, i think this is better than the original

drew sarich’s judas on stage as a character is very different. i liked how he was very vulnerable for more of the show (this can be seen in hosanna specifically). he seems to care a lot for jesus and that’s why it’s such a contrast to see him making fun of jesus in superstar. i think he’s great as an actor, from his decision to always watch and follow jesus to his obvious vocal talent. i could literally almost sink my teeth into some of his notes. fantastic, my favorite judas ever.

yes but judas is of the mind that jesus is wrong,, and is the accuser, he is suposed to be arrogant and beligerant,,, besides he's been kind of taken over and manipulated to help manifest the end result,, so he isn't suposed to be vulneraable

This is the ONLY version of this show with REAL singers, who happen to be great actors too. GREAT musical direction. Stage too. All the very best. I would like to see a HD version of this.

Pilate was awesome. Judas was epic. I love this production!

I absolutely love this Herod 👌🏻👌🏻👌🏻 and Judas is absolutely incredible

This is the best performance of I don't know how to love him, direction, scenic design and Herod's song since Yvonne Ellimann and the original production!

I love all the different versions I'm finding on KZread. I'm so amazed at the talented casts. This one did not disappoint. The end of this one was so intense - I was in tears. This is coming from someone who saw it live when it first went on tour with the original cast.

This really is a brilliant performance, particularly Judas and Pilate (when he's not doing that strange straining thing). I'm not sure whether it looks good or not, but the visual representation of Pilate's Dream is certainly an interesting touch.

The Wizard highly recommends this Filmed Stage Version , a surprisingly incredible Chorus and the dancers are really good too.If you love this Musical as I do ,I still sing along to it just like when it first came out in the early 70's on any version, then enjoy this if you got a couple of hours to load up sing along !!!!!

After years of listening to this version, I learned to really appreciate the actor playing Jesus. He is great really and is a great partner to Drew's Judas. Also oh God, but the Orchestra and Assemble are top-notch as well. Just. The Austrians did an amazing job with this version and interpretation. Definitely one of my all-time favorites.

Lights, set, choreography, blocking, costumes, and that's not including the acting and singing, IN A FOREIGN LANGUAGE! BRAVO! This is by far the best production of JCS that I've ever seen, and I've seen lots of them since 1970. I just happened to find it on KZread and clicked, just to see if if it was in German or English and I was captivated from the beginning. Even the curtain call was amazing. Polite applause, bc I thought Austrians to be somewhat reserved, but then the stage lights came on and the audience literally went wild! It's been, wow, 18 years....

This is my blood you drink. This is my body you eat. If you would remember me when you eat and drink. I must be mad thinking I'll be remembered. Yes, I must be out of my head. Look at your blank faces. My name will mean nothing Ten minutes after I'm dead. One of you denies me. One of you betrays me. APOSTLES No! Who would?! Impossible! JESUS Peter will deny my in just a few hours. Three times will deny me, And that's not all I see. One of you here dining, One of my twelve chosen Will leave to betray me. JUDAS Cut the dramatics! You know very well who. JESUS Why don't you go do it? JUDAS You want me to do it! JESUS Hurry, they are waiting. JUDAS If you knew why I do it JESUS I don't care why you do it!

JESUS Hurry, you fool. Hurry and go. Save me your speeches, I don't want to know. Go! APOSTLES Look at all my trials and tribulations Sinking in a gentle pool of wine. What's that in the bread? It's gone to my head, 'Till this morning is this evening, life is fine. Always hoped that I'd be an apostle. Knew that I would make it if I tried. Then when we retire, we can write the Gospels, So they'll all talk about us when we've died. JUDAS You sad, pathetic man, see where you've brought us to, Our ideals die around us and all because of you. But the saddest cut of all: Someone has to turn you in.

My favorite moment is absolutely when the pharisee intensely walks towards/chases Judas with the fan :O

Thank you so much! I've seen parts, but never the full version of this production. I always watched the individual clips for Drew Sarich's Judas, but due to this full version, I've discovered how brilliant Rob Fowler's Pilate is. Much appreciated!

Outstanding! Excellent cast, fabulous production.

I like the traditional angle to it. Great singing. Especially Judas when he sold Jesus to Caiphas. Great dramatic delivery, you feel his feeling of what he just did

Love this! Thanks for posting!

Loved this version of Herod's Song. Totally OTT lol EDIT: OMG, when they do those moves coming forward then all get into the stance... Brilliant!!

There's been a lot of renditions of JCS, but this just has a lot of stuff that I really like that the others don't. Surely nothing can master the original Neely version, but it's just something about the choreography, certain singers they picked and the whole presentation of it that is just amazing. Sarich and Herod are just amazing, exceptional singers, I cannot stop listening to them. The only problem I have is Jesus, I really hate saying this because I don't like being mean, but Jesus was just not a good choice or a good voice. Someone commented saying his acting was empty and not a good singer for JSC, I sadly have to agree with this, to be Jesus you need to have a certain power in your voice and you need to have a power in your voice to really hit the pitch of the notes, playing mighty Jesus means hitting mighty notes. Maybe he's suited for another musical, but he's not suited for this one. Honestly I think Sarich should have played Jesus, he did an amazing cover of Gethsemane and then find someone else for Judas. Other than that, this is amazing. I wish I could have been there seeing it live.

Agreed, but don't take Sarich away from Judas. In JCS Judas is kind of the main character and needs the vocal power Sarich has. But seeing the fact that he is such an amazing singer you need a voice which has the power to counter Judas' parts.

This cast really nailed the genre. I've seen a lot of productions that are incredible and full of talented people who just didn't have a rock voice. The casting directors understood the assignment and cast appropriately. Also, I've never really considered Pilate or cared about who was playing him, they're all fine to me.

This was produced in Austria, but no worries. Everything’s in English. This is such an energetic rendition of Jesus Christ’s last week. I’ve watched it several times already. I must say, though, for those of us well aware of the actual story, there are some major discrepancies and omissions. They become somewhat overshadowed by the energy, the fantastic singing, the choreography, and I have to say, the acting, which exceeds superb. A shout out to the stage crew for the unbelievable stage sets and the Special Surprises you created for your unsuspecting audiences. Nine and a half stars out of ten !! There are stand out performances, and I hadn’t expected such brilliant settings, and on point singing. Brilliant, ladies and gentlemen! You’ve certainly done yourselves proud!! God bless!
