man on crucifix being eaten by birds is cut down

Tim Rice and Andrew Lloyd Webber's Jesus Christ Superstar first exploded onto the West End stage in 1971 and it was clear that the musical world would never be the same again. For the first time ever, Jesus Christ Superstar has been specially filmed for video. Shot at Pinewood Studios, this brand new filmed stage version starring Glenn Carter and Rik Mayall captures one of the best score Andrew Lloyd Webber has ever written and is packed with hit songs including, 'I Don't Know How To Love Him', 'Gethsemane' and 'Superstar'.

The 1992 Australian Cast Concert Tour of Jesus Christ Superstar was a phenomenal success with fans of stage and the artists involved. To date, the only keepsake fans have had of this production is the Official Cast Recording CD which at the time, debut at #1 and remained at #1 for 10 weeks (4× Platinum). It also went on to be awarded 'Highest Selling Album' at the 1993 ARIA Awards.
