Jesus Christ Superstar is coming to Canada! This hit musical has been reimagined with an all-LGBTQ cast, and it’s the show you need to see. With hits like “I Don’t Know How to Love Him” and “What’s the Buzz,” this musical is sure to get your toes tapping. And who doesn’t love a good LGBTQ retelling of a Biblical story? Grab your Broadway Across Canada tickets now and come see Jesus Christ Superstar playing in select cities across Canada! 

Aaron Lavigne leads the all-LGBTQ cast of Jesus Christ Superstar in Canada as Jesus, Omar Lopez Cepero as Judas, and Tyce Greene as Annas. This production of Jesus Christ Superstar is unique in that it focuses on the relationships between the characters rather than on Jesus himself. 

“I Don’t Know How to Love Him” is one of the most popular songs from the musical, and it perfectly captures the heartache of unrequited love. Watching Mary Magdalene sing this song while pining after Jesus is sure to be a religious experience—but not in the traditional sense. And “What’s the Buzz” is a fun number that will have you buzzing right along with the cast. You won’t want to miss it! 

Aaron Lavigne as Jesus? Count us in!

Aaron Lavigne is one gorgeous man. He has shown time and time again that he is more than just a pretty face; he is a phenomenal actor. We’re sure he will bring a fresh and unique take to the role of Jesus Christ.

As if that weren’t enough to get you excited for the show, the production team has promised that this will be a “multi-sensory experience” unlike anything you’ve ever seen before. With an immersive set design and state-of-the-art special effects, we guarantee you’ll be transported back to Biblical times!
