Jesus Christ GAY Superstar?
Maybe I am reacting incorrectly to this press announcement and accompanying photos, as I have not seen the production. But one wonders what kind of reaction they are going for. Isn't the show edgy and contorversial enough? I certainly have no issue with gay themes, but am I to believe that Judas, according to these pictures, was at least bisexual, if not gay? What about Jesus? Mary? Controversy for the sake of controversy bothers me. Again, not having seen the show, let me say I am reacting to the pictures only. Sex sells, and this certainly grabs the attention. I noticed. Now I hope the show makes a decent point.
