Review: Live Arena Tour’s Jesus Christ Superstar

This cannot be considered a true review because I haven’t seen the production in its entirety, however… what I have seen (which is more than plenty) is enough for me to warrant putting my thoughts down on a post and continue on my merry way.

I’ll be brutally honest… first… if I were to do the last year all over again, I would participate in this show once and that is it. Once is more than I am able to stomach and there has to be a damn good reason as to why I would want to participate in the production a second time and in all honesty it wasn’t worthwhile. So by extension I have been adverse to actually since any kind of production of JCS on stage… unless it is for a damn good reason.

So I decided to change everything out again. So instead of a splash page that leads into a bunch of other mini-sites, I decided to just simplify everything to the point that it is just a weblog. This way if time permits I can still add on pages outside of the blog that will be accessible via the blog.

This is a reflection of what has been going on in my life, where I used to compartmentalize everything and over-complicate matters to the point that I was stressing myself out. Now that I’ve found a bit of a balance, and a bit of simplicity it became easier to just put everything down on one page and throw the complexities out the window.

So with a weblog I could keep ideas up here, if anything new happens in my life it would be easier to post about it… and as writing projects complete itself then I’ll post accordingly.

Oh and if you were wondering where the title of this page came from? It is from a musical – Andrew Lloyd Webber’s Jesus Christ SuperStar – that is playing at the Arcada in St. Charles, IL in mid-December. It is being co-produced by Natural Talent Productions.

Ja ne!
