I know Marcus Nance in the cast (he plays Caiaphas and has a gorgeous rich bass voice) -- and I heard an interview w/the cast a couple months ago on CBC (on Q). It sounds like a fantastic version

Stratford is taking JCS to California next, and I think to Broadway as well.

Yes, Marcus Nance was terrific. This show has earned its success.

Have a fantastic Judas and it saves the show:-)
I also think it has awesome lyrics. Tim Rice is just fantastic.

Yup, really amazing.

Yes, we saw this too! It was just wonderful.

Glad you enjoyed it, too!

It will be an utter CRIME if they don't bring Josh Young to Broadway.

This was my adolescence--I was one of the Jesus People and I so identified with this as a teenager.

I still can't be cynical about it.

No, it would be hard to be cynical about this one.

I believe it's been officially announced that the show will go to Broadway after it's run in San Diego.

Well, it's going on tour - so you might be able to at some point.
