Jesus Christ Superstar is a 1970 rock opera with music by Andrew Lloyd Webber and lyrics by Tim Rice. The musical started as a rock opera concept recording before its first staging on Broadway in 1971. The musical is loosely based on the Gospels' accounts of the last week of Jesus' life, beginning with the preparation for the arrival of Jesus and his disciples in Jerusalem and ending with the crucifixion. It highlights political and interpersonal struggles between Judas Iscariot and Jesus, struggles that are not in the Bible narratives. The resurrection is not included. It therefore largely follows the form of a traditional passion play.

Jesus Christ Superstar er 1970 med musikk av Andrew Lloyd Webber og tekster av Tim Rice. Musikalen startet som et rock opera opptak før den første gangen på Broadway i 1971. Musikalen er løst basert på evangeliene ' kontoer i den siste uken i Jesus ' liv, begynner med forberedelsene til ankomsten av Jesus og hans disipler i Jerusalem og slutter med korsfestelsen. Det fremhever politiske og mellommenneskelige kamper mellom Judas Iscariot og Jesus, kamper som ikke er i Bibelen fortellinger. Oppstandelsen er ikke inkludert. Derfor følger i stor grad form av en tradisjonell passion play.
