Thank you so much for this! Zubin Varla is my favorite Judas based on his incredible vocal performance in the cast recording, but it's next to impossible to find video of the show with this wonderful cast! So this is awesome!
The best cast hands down. I was lucky enough to see this performance live with my Family… Absolutely all of us loved it. Got the original soundtrack on Vinyl as well and this on CD 🕺 Better days for sure 👌🏻
I had the most amazing time being part of this wonderful cast with Steve and Zubin! Just caught myself as a Soul Girl in a clip in this doc. Oh good good times!!!🙌🏿🙌🏿🙌🏿😘😘😘
Thank you for posting this. It shows you how we have changed from being closed minded we are before and now we realized how beautiful this interpretation of Jesus is. It is a great thought provoking musical that made me think how Jesus is as a man. Was he not entitled to having his own human emotions? A masterpiece from ALW
Oh my goodness!!! 😱 I’ve been searching for footage from this production for this over 20 years!!! 😍🎉🎭😀 Ever since I was first lucky enough to hear the Lyceum 1996 cast recording at aged 12!!! Although I was sadly never able to seen this production live, it is in my opinion simply unparalleled, and contains the ultimate dream cast! I was fortunate enough to later play Jesus in a production of JCS myself when I was 18, I did everything I could to acquire information about this production! (I even went so far as to email Glenn Carter to enquire about how he & Steve Balsamo approached the role differently. He very generously replied! 😊) However, despite 2 decades of effort, I was never been able to find actual videos of this production…that is, until NOW!!!! 😍 Thank you so so SO much for posting! 😀 You have no idea what it means to be to finally be able to see glimpses of the production! I know it is an awful lot to ask, but do you (or anyone you know) by any chance have a copy of the entire show for this production (1996 Lyceum) filmed? The closest I have been able to find so far is this 10 minute video (which is itself awesome!) th-cam.com/video/bKROVM9iT-k/w-d-xo.html I simply cannot put into words how ecstatic I would be see obtain such a video, and I would gladly pay. 😊 Please let me know, and thank you SO much once again!
Hi Simon so happy you loved the video! This documentary took years to unearth. We are still looking for a filmed version which we will hopefully acquire soon!!!
I will keep every finger crossed that you are successful in your search! 🤞😊 If you would be kind enough to please let me know when you’ve acquired a copy of the entire show I would be enormously grateful! 😊 Many thanks again & very best wishes.
Team Joanna I too would be infinitely grateful if you could share the full musical if you ever found it!!! To see Zubin Varla perform as Judas is one of my biggest dreams!!!! 🌸🌸⭐️⭐️❤️❤️
I can only echo the sentiments of everyone else. Steve & Zubin were phenomenal, & I too have searched for this particular cast without joy. So THANK YOU, THANK YOU, THANK YOU!! I hope your search for the whole production is successful 🙏... I'm amazed you managed to unearth this much! What a treat xx xx
I saw this. Still have my commemorative programme. It was the most mesmerising, electric and touching performance and has stayed with me all this time. I am so grateful that I was able to be part of this shared experience in the magnificent Lyceum. ❤️
!!!!!!!! Thankyouthankyouthankyouthankyou !!!!!!! I never thought I would ever find footage fro this amazing (in my opinion best) line-up for this amazing musical ❤️❤️❤️❤️❤️❤️
I echo the comments of others. Such a shame we haven't been able to see this show again. I saw the show twice live and since seen many versions but this one has been favourite and Zubin was definitely the best Judus. Someone must have filmed a decent copy? Let's hope that this artistic splendour will one day entertain and move others once again. Great to see a hint in this upload of what I enjoyed so much back then. Thanks 😀👍
I saw this production when I was 7 I can only remember small elements of the show so it’s really nice to see clips for the show. Thank you for sharing the clips.
Hi all, I'm using this documentary for a uni assignment about Andrew Lloyd Webber's influence on Musical Theatre, but I was wandering if anyone knew where I might find the original documentary so I can properly reference it :)) thanks
That's what alot of us want to find out. I could be wrong, but with the length of time this show ran (and it's popularity), I would be amazed if the production company did not film it on at least one occasion, both for posterity and future sales. Maybe Team Joanna can get in touch with the production company?!
3:32 If all this happened to make the Theatre ready, and there was all that money and effort put into making such a production AND the fact that this was an official revival, then why was it not worth filming the performance and giving it a DVD release?
Is that supposed to be Nick Holden as King Herod in this version? Honestly, I would've preferred Alice Cooper, who sang King Herod's Song for the cast album.

@TimeandMonotony ... I feel exactly the same!

Where was Zubin? Literally can’t find anything on him on TH-cam. Most amazing Judas ever
Totally agree
He was and believe me I've seen dozens. I was mesmerised. Wish I could find some footage 😢
I had the most amazing time being part of this wonderful cast with Steve and Zubin! Just caught myself as a Soul Girl in a clip in this doc. Oh good good times!!!🙌🏿🙌🏿🙌🏿😘😘😘
This is amazing!!! I hope Joanna gets to read this... she is back in the UK to do the reimagined South Pacific. Thank you for sharing!

@@zennyclor626 Ditto! Zubin is my favorite Judas, I'd love to actually see his performance rather than just hear it (though that is awesome enough!)

I love Zubin Varla, Joanna Ampil, and Steve Balsamo.

One of my favorite casts, this and the original LP ones.

No problem 😊
I was looking for footage with this cast FIVE DAYS AGO, thanks!
Glad I could help! Please share!
Worked on it and have the program
@@fifilalaosei3476 do you have the full show? I wish there was...
Thank you so much for uploading this too! It's like 🎄Christmas has come for me in May❣😭
Hope you enjoyed it!!!
Hi Jamie here a cast member of the tour 🖒

Hi There Steve Balsamo
I saw this production when I was 7 I can only remember small elements of the show so it’s really nice to see clips for the show. Thank you for sharing the clips.
Glad you enjoyed it and we are still unearthing archival footage from the show!
@@teamjoanna179 looking forward to seeing the footage.
It is so fantastic and I hsve loved the music for many years ❤ ♥ 😍
The stars talks about how they create their character on the stage
Does there exist a full, archival video of this production?
i never saw it live
Hi all, I'm using this documentary for a uni assignment about Andrew Lloyd Webber's influence on Musical Theatre, but I was wandering if anyone knew where I might find the original documentary so I can properly reference it :)) thanks
Is there , anywhere full show video?

I totally agree with you! Apparently it was filmed properly when The Royal Family watched.
@@teamjoanna179 Was it actually? So there is real filmed footage of this entire production somewhere out there?
@@thetimeshadow6769 To the archives we go!
Steve as Jesus
The best in my book. I remember seeing him and crying. The performances were incredible.
Is that supposed to be Nick Holden as King Herod in this version? Honestly, I would've preferred Alice Cooper, who sang King Herod's Song for the cast album.
Yes! Alice Cooper was just invited to sing for the cast album. Nick Holder performed King Herod for the revival.
