Reviews
"This drama of many moods — exuberance, sadness, conflict — is staged with staggering intensity, but also with all the pizazz of a polished musical. This is a five-star show in every way. See it!" - The Henley Standard
"As a community production, Progress Theatre’s take on Jesus Christ Superstar naturally loses a little of the glitz and scale of the West End show, but it hasn’t lost the heart, or the style." - ExploreReading
"This is quite simply breathtaking theatre, the musical score propelling the timeless story and entwining our emotions – don’t miss it." - The Whitley Pump
