Jesus Christ Superstar12A

Directed by Norman Jewison | USA | 1973 | 1h 46m | Starring Ted Neeley, Carl Anderson, Yvonne Elliman, Barry Dennen, Josh Mostel

The last days of Jesus Christ told from the perspective of his betrayer, Judas, performed as a camp 1970s hippie-aesthetic rock-opera? Praise be! Adapted from Andrew Lloyd Webber and Tim Rice’s Broadway show and with a screenplay by Melvyn Bragg, this stylish and unquestionably oddball musical will leave you praying for more.

Reviews

‘A truly great rock record, and a fantastic movie—one that deserves to be pulled off the shelf of pop-cultural history, dusted off, and listened to again.’
Todd Hanson, The AV Club

Our beautiful art deco inspired auditorium can be found just off East Oxford's Cowley Road.We are open 7 days a week. We open the cinema and box office 30 minutes before the scheduled start time of each film, and the Box Office then closes 10 minutes after the film starts. We only show a few adverts – less than most cinemas – and we only play a couple of trailers, so please don’t be late as the film itself starts very close to the advertised time!
