ANDREW LLOYD WEBBER (Music) has composed the scores of some of the world’s most famous musicals.

He is one of the select group of artists with EGOT status, having received Emmy, Grammy, Oscar and Tony Awards. Lloyd Webber owns six London theatres, including the iconic London Palladium and Theatre Royal Drury Lane. Reopened in July 2021, the latter was completely restored and renovated at a cost of over £60 million. This was one of the biggest projects ever undertaken by a private theatre owner in recent times. His mantra is that every penny of profit made from his theatres is ploughed back into the buildings for their conservation and development. Lloyd Webber is passionate about

*Member of Actors’ Equity Association, the Union of Professional Actors and Stage Managers in the United States

GOODSPEED MUSICALS | 2026 SEASON 15

WHO’S WHO the importance of musical education and diversity in the arts. Andrew Lloyd Webber Foundation provides 30 performing arts scholarships every year for talented students with financial need, and supports a range of projects such as the Music In Secondary Schools Trust (MiSST). In academic year September 2025-26, 14,885 children are being given free musical tuition and instruments as part of MiSST’s Andrew Lloyd Webber Programme.

The Foundation also commissions research into diversity in theatre. Andrew Lloyd Webber has composed music for globally significant moments.

Most recently, he was asked to compose “Make a Joyful Noise,” the anthem for the Coronation of King Charles III. Andrew Lloyd Webber was knighted in 1992, created an honorary life peer in 1997, and made a Knight Companion of the Most Noble Order of the Garter by King Charles III in 2024.

He is the only person in the arts ever granted this personal honor by a monarch.

TIM RICE (Lyrics) has worked in music, theatre, and films since 1965 when he met Andrew Lloyd Webber, a fellow struggling songwriter. Rather than pursue Tim’s ambitions to write rock or pop songs they turned their attention to Andrew’s obsession—musical theatre. Their first collaboration was based on the life of Dr. Thomas Barnardo, the Victorian philanthropist, The Likes of Us. Their next three works together were much more successful—Joseph and the Amazing Technicolor Dreamcoat, Jesus Christ Superstar and Evita.

Tim has since worked with other distinguished popular composers such as Elton John (The Lion King, Aida), Alan Menken (Aladdin, King David, Beauty and the Beast), Björn Ulvaeus and Benny Andersson (Chess), and Stuart Brayson (From Here to Eternity). He has also written with Freddie Mercury, Burt Bacharach and Rick Wakeman among others. Tim founded his own cricket team in 1973, which has now played over 750 matches, and was president of MCC, founded in 1789, in 2002. He crops up here and there in all branches of the media, drawing on his extensive knowledge of the history of popular music. As an EGOT, he is one of only 17 people in the world to have won an Emmy, Grammy, Oscar and Tony award, was knighted by HM Queen Elizabeth II in 1994, and is the proud owner of a boxer dog and two dozen chickens.

ENDLA BURROWS (Director of Production) brings three decades of creative management experience to her 4th season as Director of Production at Goodspeed. Previously, Endla was part of the Industrial Light and Magic leadership team that created visual effects for dozens of films, including Dragonheart, Mission Impossible, Magnolia, The Mummy, The Perfect Storm, and Pirates Of the Caribbean. As Director of the Jim Henson Creature Shop, she oversaw production for a diverse slate of projects, including The Producers, Where the WIld Things Are, Sid the Science Kid, Sesame Street and, of course, Goodspeed’s production of Emmet Otter’s Jug Band Christmas.

16 GOODSPEED MUSICALS | 2026 SEASON

Ever on the lookout for new challenges, Endla has also worked as an assistant director, management consultant and writer.

DOMINICK J. PINTO (Production Manager) [he/ him] is in his third season as Production Manager. Previously: Technical Director for Choir Boy and Assistant Technical Director on Cadillac Crew at Yale Rep.

GOODSPEED MUSICALS | 2026 SEASON 17

PROGRAM NOTES BY MICHAEL FLING | ASSOCIATE ARTISTIC DIRECTOR Ultimately, music is what makes musicals musicals.

Powerful melodies that carry emotion, forward plot, and build character define the art form. The strength of a show’s score is what separates the good from the great. And in the case of Jesus Christ Superstar, the songs struck a chord heard round the world from the moment the needle hit the vinyl.

who reportedly believed the work could bring more people to Christianity than almost anything before it.

More than fifty years later, the score remains one of the most celebrated in the musical theatre canon. Ranging from thrilling rock to spiritual euphoria, it continues to resonate with audiences —not unlike the story of Christ himself.

Composer Andrew Lloyd While dramatizing the Webber and Lyricist Tim apprehensions of both Rice found success in Jesus and Judas remains the UK by turning the challenging for many Jeff Fenholt as Jesus in the original Broadway cast of Old Testament story of audiences, the point of Jesus Christ Superstar (1971).

In subtracting the sheen of divinity and his disciples next. Originally released as from Jesus, Superstar makes his eventual a concept album because they couldn’t get crucifixion an even more daringly selfless act. backing for a theatrical production, the brown- In centering Judas’ skepticism, it places the colored album of Jesus Christ Superstar was question of individual belief at the heart of an immediate sensation, earning gold status the narrative—underscoring that there can’t only three weeks after its US release in 1970. be faith without doubt.

Due to the popularity of the album, there was immense demand for Jesus Christ Superstar to make it to the stage. After over twenty unauthorized productions all over the US had to be shut down, the rock opera landed on Broadway in 1971 to mixed notices—hardly the reception you’d expect for a musical whose original record was so popular it reached #1 on the Billboard Pop Album charts, beating out Carole King’s Tapestry!

But it’s no secret that this retelling of “the greatest story ever told” was divisive. Many religious groups deemed it blasphemous for how it depicted characters and chronicled the final days of Christ. It inspired such strong feelings that the initial New York outing faced protests outside the theatre “every night” according to Jeff Fenholt, the original Jesus. Yet the outrage was matched—if not exceeded—by enthusiasm. The production went on to run for over 700 performances and later became a commercially, if not critically, successful film. Among its most surprising admirers was Pope John Paul VI,

18 GOODSPEED MUSICALS | 2026 SEASON

As is the Goodspeed standard, we have an exemplary creative team bringing this story to our stage. Tatiana Pandiani, our director, has embraced the 70s roots of the music in her approach and inspired Amy Campbell to let dance drive the modern urgency of the production. Adam Souza’s exhilarating music direction of the iconic score will leave your ears mesmerized as we continue to marvel at his versatility as an artist. The cast is one of the finest and most exciting we’ve assembled and the designers have crafted a world unlike anything we’ve ever put on the stage.

Whether you enter Jesus Christ Superstar as a questioning skeptic or devoted follower, there is a character on stage who shares your point of view. And whether you have known every lyric since you first listened the album fifty-five years ago or have never heard this glorious score before—there’s no doubt you’ll emerge “changed—yes, really changed” by hearing it live in the intimacy of the Opera House.

MISSION STATEMENT Goodspeed Musicals’ mission is to share the joy of musical theatre; to delight, inspire, and challenge audiences; to nurture creators; and to build and support a broad, diverse, and inclusive community.

LAND ACKNOWLEDGEMENT The land on which Goodspeed Musicals is located in East Haddam and Chester, CT is the ancestral land of at least three tribes of Native Americans—the Wangunk, the Mohegan and the Nehantic tribes. We understand that the land which is now Haddam and East Haddam was purchased from the native people in 1662 for thirty coats—worth about $100. We acknowledge those native Americans and the loss of their homeland—land on which we thrive today.

DEDICATED PERFORMANCES Goodspeed Musicals is pleased to offer members and friends an extraordinary opporunity to support the finest musical theatre while providing a once-in-a-lifetime tribute to a friend or loved one.

If you are interested in dedicating a performance to honor someone, please contact Rebekah Moses at 860-615-0365 or rmoses@goodspeed.org.

VOLUNTEER AT GOODSPEED The Goodspeed Guild is a volunteer organization dedicated to supporting Goodspeed Musicals’ operations and productions. Since 1975 it has provided services to artists, patrons, and staff on a year-round basis, while offering its members the opportunity to become part of the behind-the scenes activities at Goodspeed.
