Jesus Christ Superstar
Performing at Entre' Acte Theatrix @ Crest Theatre at the Delray Center for the Arts at Old School Square (Jul 5 - Jul 15)
Runtime: 2 Hours
Synopsis
Jesus Christ Superstar, the dynamic rock musical by Andrew Lloyd Webber and Tim Rice, is a musical interpretation of the final days of Jesus Christ that is not so much a story about religion as it is about the emergence of a charismatic rebel who surfaces among an oppressed people to pacifistically challenge the moral state of existing affairs – all told in the musical vernacular of rock ‘n’ roll, just like HAIR before it.
Theater Information

Entr’Acte Theatrix is a brand new off-shoot of the Palm Beach Principal Players, part of our natural growth. When the Players started 10 years ago, our target company member was in high school or college, interested in musical theater, and with limited opportunities to perform. Now, in 2010, our company counts over 200 young people who have worked with us in over 16 productions, many of whom have gone on to professional careers or top educational programs. However, we recognize that there is still a need for these more “seasoned” performers to have the opportunity to work with the best professionals we can attact, and allow them to begin their professional careers with a solid base of work on their resumes, as well as the network and contacts our productions will offer them. This corp of “Emerging Professional Talent” will be the focus of the work that Entr’Acte does.
