Our drama students from Years 10-13 had the most wonderful day on Thursday 12th November on our visit to see ‘Jesus Christ Superstar‘ in the West End, starring Sam Ryder as Jesus and Reece Shearsmith as King Herod. The singing was spectacular, the set and lighting were incredible, and the ensemble’s energy and talent were unbelievable.
After a steady drive into London, we had a picnic lunch in Covent Garden with an added surprise of a visit from Father Christmas and then a short stroll to the theatre. We all agreed that the show was fast-paced and that Sam Ryder really did deliver. He was exceptional as Jesus and his famous number, ‘Gethsemane‘ was jaw dropping. The band was absolutely amazing, and the final number, ‘Jesus Christ Superstar’, drew instant cheers of approval. Our students were a delight to take, and we look forward to seeing ‘Paddington‘ next month.
Thanks to Miss Rose and Mr Pilling too.
