and am I nuts or is this the gayest thing ever. I am watching the last supper scene now and it looks like many of the dinner parties I have gone to with fellow gays. It is a decent musical but I can see why Andrew Lloyd Webber got in trouble for it.
to carry some weight to having played Jesus-in other words he KNEW he has to be a good person in his life for the gift that role gave him-does that make sense? I mean I met him at a bar I was playing at and he actually returned my call and left us tickets just like he said he would.
My mom's a big Jesus Christ Superstar fan and has seen it over a dozen times with the cast from the film. She took me once when I was in high school. It was cold and there was snow on the ground but after the show we went to the back of the theater to try to catch them as they left because some of the people we were with wanted autographs. Ted Neeley came out first and took the time not just to sign but to speak to everyone. At one point he joked around with my mom about wanting to bring his wife and kids up to Boston from Texas so they could walk on water. When Carl Anderson came out there were dozens of people but he walked right up to me, put his hands on my face and called me gorgeous, then lectured me about my nose ring and said he didn't understand why "kids today" especially one so beautiful would do that to themself. He also stayed for awhile in the cold talking to people.
might also like Elizabeth Cunningham's Mary Magdalene novels. The two currently out are Magdalene Rising (originally Daughter of the Shining Isles)and The Passion of Mary Magdalene. The third book is due out this year. Very different take on MM and an unusual Jesus.
