So because a lots of you asked for description. This production was directed by Sándor Silló and choreographed by György Krámer, who also made the first hungarian Jesus Christ Superstar back in 1986. The conductor was László Zádori. The idea was, that as Operas usually sang in their original language, JCS as a rockopera should be too this time. This is an all hungarian cast, no foreigners. The stage was build in front of Szombathely's iconic Isis sanctuary, the Iseum. The main cast was: Jesus: Péter Schrott (kzread.infofeatured) Judas: Dávid Schwartz Mary Magdalene: Linda Fekete Pilate: Zoltán Miller Caiphas: Géza Gábor Annas: Zsolt Kósa King Herod: Győző Szabó Simon: Tamás Kondor Péter: Ádám Poppre

I would ask you all kinds of questions about your experiences but there would not be enough room here in the comments lol. I agree with you about the music now. Where is the talent? So much of it is enhanced by various technical tricks because alot of the singers can't even sing! That's why it's so great when you run across such talent, skills and experience which I'm sure you have as well. I'm sorry to write a book here. So wonderful to talk to you in the comments. Thanks!

I have seen several renditions of Superstar, done by a cast who had singers whose first language was not English. Singers who spoke German, French, Spanish, etc, but this version was done better than the others I saw. It is very difficult to do. Kudos to all involved in this wonderful production. The fast speed of this one just adds one more touch to set it apart from other versions. Thank you!

Incredible direction, incredible actors and singers! This is the very best Crowd I've seen in any productions, without questions. Jesus and Judas are amazing main characters, flawless vocals and emotion. The Priests are great! It's rare to see actually old men as priests. They look really mean and powerful, Annas and Caiaphas have amazing voices. Pilate is a great actor, showing off power with slightest gestures and inserting enough weight into his short lines. This show looked and sounded equally great. Cheers to our dear Hungarian neighbours from Ukraine!

Brilliantly the BEST saw in movies when first out ... Got static ever since. your version.... Outstanding

This and the TV version (with Alice Cooper as King Herod) is just amazing. I like it just as much as I like the original film. The performance and the singers were just amazing.

Jesus hits it spot on. The super high falsetto is pitch perfect and on the money with Ted

The guy playing Jesus... What can I say? Those falsetto notes gave me chills😮❤❤😍!!!

Fantastic show! The singing and dancing are out of this world, I have never seen such a good cast. Well done everyone👏👏👏 I forgot to praise the acting which was also superb. 🤗🤗thanks Peter for uploading this, it is the best one I have seen outside of the film.

What a great production! TY.

Beautiful, dynamic, heavenly sung. Flawless.

I watch all renditions of this play. I love the music. It’s so expressive. I grew up in the 60’s and 70’s and It fits with the eta. I haven’t this one.. just started it but I am sure it’s wonderful too

This production is incredible. The singing is extraordinary. Amazing cast and choreo

Everyone's so on point with these songs! Bravo!

WOW! This is the one of the best Jesus Christ Superstars I've ever seen! Jesus is amazing. Greetings from Finland!

I have seen other versions also but this is one of the top oh my goodness amazing 🤩

Judas and Jesus are amazing! 👏👏👏👏👏👏👏👏👏👏👏👏

I completely agree! I was in a local production of this show in 1990. We added a scene where the soldiers took my friend Charlie off of the cross, and it made the show so much more emotional. The same with this production's resurrection scene.

This could be my favorite next to the original movie. Wow, beautifully done❤️❤️❤️

I’m so glad this production used “We Are Decided”. I wish more productions would use it. I think it adds so much more depth to the story and the characters of Caiaphas and Annas. Also an interesting placement within “What’s The Buzz” but I can understand why it was done. Well done!

Best performance of JC Superstar I’ve ever seen and I’ve seen plenty of them! Choreography was 10 out of 10 and everybody hit those high notes even Jesus in the garden of Gethsemane!

I thought this was really wonderful. Jesus & Judas are both incredible singers/performers. I found Jesus' Gethsemane to be one of the best I have heard in awhile! Pilate was great, as well. Very interesting how they veered from the original in so many ways, especially the use of angels & demons to persuade Judas. Also having Simon in a wheelchair was beautiful to see & what an amazing singer he is also! I would like to know what Peter is saying at the end? I also like that they bring out all the musicians at the end for recognition. Thank you for sharing!

After reading the very good comments I must agree that this is a very impressive performance. The music of JCS is so thrilling! I tend only listen to JCS soundtracks not to see the musical show, BUT I must admit that is an exiting piece of work. What I also liked is that at the end when the actors are presented also the orchestra was presented on the stage - after all the music is soooo gooood.

В 1976 я работала в одной филармонии, потом переманили в другую. В Питере мне повезло- достала ноты( перепечатку), либретто, главные арии для фортепиано с текстом! Счастье! Двое суток я переписывала ноты, текст и перевод! Конечно, за два дня выучила арии Магдалины! Я была в каком-то сюрреалистическом экстазе. А потом мы с ансамблем из Питера в Турцию по Архангельской области. На концерте, когда точно знали, что нет проверяющего, я исполняла арии Магдалины. Это был такой кайф! А как принимала публика! Говорят "Совок", не было ничего хорошего, не было музыкантов... Ерунда! Были. Кстати, в нашей группе на йонике( кто помнит) играл Сережа Курёхин! Зарабатывал на инструмент. Господи, аппаратуры нормальной не было! Гитаристы со своими гитарами, колонками, училками. За это платили как за амортизацию. Микрофон БИК... Йоника "Юность"..

my post for everybody is that dont forget this is theater and not a concert...you shold take a look to the energy and not for the dialect, because if i am takeing nother perfonces i can find a lot of mistakes.... :)

Imo it’s better without the scene. The musical is supposed to leave it ambiguous whether or not Jesus is actually a magical figure. Hence his inability to save the lepers, or show King Herod anything fantastical, etc. It’s better if it’s also ambiguous whether Jesus rises from the dead.

Absolutely not. One of my favorite parts of the play is how, by leaving the resurrection out, they make it intentionally ambiguous whether Jesus was truly the Messiah or he was just a guy. Including that scene ruins a lot of the intent of the play.

Seems that Pilate is the best actor, because he thoroughly understands each word being said, and their significance.
