Adam Lambert to Play Judas in ‘Jesus Christ Superstar’ at Hollywood Bowl Alongside ‘Wicked’ Star’s Jesus
The musical was first performed at the famed Hollywood venue in 1971.
Adam Lambert killed it last year in his Broadway debut as the Emcee in the revival of Cabaret. Now the singer is taking the stage again in another iconic musical, and this time he’ll share the boards with another powerhouse vocalist also known for having a flashy fashion sense.
Grammy nominee Lambert has been tapped to play Judas opposite the show’s previously announced gender-bending Jesus, Wicked star Cynthia Erivo, in the upcoming production of Andrew Lloyd Webber and Tim Rice’s Jesus Christ Superstar at the Hollywood Bowl. “This production of Jesus Christ Superstar, bringing the much-loved, iconic musical back to its rock roots, is the latest installment in the Hollywood Bowl’s tradition of producing and presenting a staged Broadway musical,” read a statement announcing the special event.
At press time, the three-night production (Aug. 1-3) has not announced who will play the role of Mary Magdalene.
“For many Angelenos and concertgoers, the Hollywood Bowl is the premier summer destination for live music,” said L.A. Phil president/CEO Kim Noltemy in the announcement about the return of the musical that was first performed at the iconic L.A. venue in 1971. “Each season, the LA Phil presents world-class artists in a truly one-of-a-kind setting, and this year is no exception. We’re especially thrilled to welcome Adam Lambert to the cast of Jesus Christ Superstar and look forward to sharing this bold, fresh interpretation of a legendary musical, returning to its rock roots, with our audiences.”
Tickets for the show — and all single performances of any L.A. Phil-presented summer concerts at the Bowl — swill go on sale beginning at 10 a.m. PT on Tuesday (May 6); click here for more details on tickets. The Lambert/Erivo Jesus Christ Superstar will be directed and choreographed by Sergio Trujillo and conducted by Tony- and Grammy-winner Stephen Oremus.
