On tour as well as at the Johanneshov arena in Stockholm Jesus was played by Bruno Wintzell, who also sings the part of Jesus Christ at the Swedish cast's studio recording. Among other artists were featured in the Swedish cast by their respective roles: Arne Jansson as Judas Iscariot, Örjan Ramberg as Herod, Bernt Henziger as Pontius Pilate"Jesus Christ Superstar" is such an example. A concept album, originally released in 1970, the live production never quite matched the edgy counterculture light rock of its vinyl counterpart. A first film attempted in 1973 was a minor curiosity, but hardly a cinematic masterpiece. English singer Melanie C performed "I Don't Know How to Love Him" in the role of Mary Magdalene during the Jesus Christ Superstar Live Arena Tour which had its initial UK run in September - October 2012 also playing the O2 Dublin 12 October 2012, followed first by an Australian tour in May - June 2013 and then an encore UK run in October 2012. Fresh from winning the TV talent show , Ben Forster is palpably still feeling his way into his talent, not helped by this version capturing arena-style largesse in uncompromising detail. Subtlety is in short supply – Melanie Chisholm’s Mary Magdelene feels mis-cast, and in art as in life, the less said about Chris Moyles the better. Tim Rice and Andrew Lloyd Webber's rock classic Jesus Christ Superstar returns to its roots with this exciting and contemporary interpretation filmed during the Live Arena Tour. An incredible cast including Tim Minchin as Judas Iscariot, Melanie C as Mary Magdalene, Chris Moyles as King Herod and Ben Forster as Jesus Christ, perform hit songs rnWU. 29 313 198 402 380 93 485 193 197
