Jesus Christ Superstar at Sydney Entertainment Centre

Hosanna!  Jesus Christ Superstar fans in Sydney can rejoice the fact that an evening and matinee show has just been added.  The new shows will take place on Sunday 9 June and will take the total to five arena shows in Sydney.

The new shows will go on general public sale at 9am Monday 15 April. 

The show stars Australia’s own Tim Minchin as ‘Judas Iscariot’, former Spice Girl Melanie C as ‘Mary Magdalene’ and the critically acclaimed new-comer Ben Forster in the role of ‘Jesus’.  Also starring in the Australian production will be Jon Stevens returning to Jesus Christ Superstar in the role of ‘Pontius Pilate’ (Stevens played Judas in the 1992 Australian arena tour and the 1994 theatre production) and Andrew O’Keefe in the role of ‘King Herod’.

Andrew Lloyd Webber says: "I'm thrilled that Australia is to be the first leg for our international tour of the new Jesus Christ Superstar.  We had an overwhelming reception when the show toured the country for an astounding 84 dates in 1992. I hope this new production, which has been totally re-conceived for the 21st century, will entertain a new generation of Australians as well as those who already love the show."

The new production’s run in the UK in late 2012 broke previous audience records with 74,000 fans seeing the show in its opening weekend.  The arena production received wide acclaim, with critics praising the show as:
“Lloyd Webber’s new generation of superstars hits all the right notes.” The Times

“A work of conceptual genius” Daily Telegraph
“Restored to its heavy metal rock origins.” The Independent
“An almighty success!” Daily Star Sunday
“Blows away tradition.” Daily Mail

Canto English pop singer and actor, Alan Tam Wing-Lun, is one of Hong Kong’s most celebrated living legends.

Throughout the 1980’s he played a major role in developing the Canto pop scene due to his romantic ballads and modern arrangements.   Commencing his singing career in the local HK entertainment industry with the legendary 'Wynners' alongside Kenny Bee, the band gained so much popularity that they had their own TV show “Wynners’ Special”.  

Alan later branched out making a name for himself as a solo singer and actor.   

Tam is known as one of all-time greats of Cantonese pop music, also earning the respectable nickname of Lucky Lun / Principal Tam due to the years he mentored other bright and young musical artists.   

He dominated the scene during the eighties with back to back hits often earning and taking out the title of 'Top Ten Songs of the Year’ and winning numerous Awards such as 'Most Popular Male Singer'.  By 1995 he had already sold more than 20 million albums.  By 2005 he had launched more than 104 albums and over 800 songs.  He has taken part in 264 concerts of which 189 were individual concerts.   He has gone on to star in more than 60 movies and produce 3 films.

Today he is regularly seen across the media in Hong Kong, mainland China, Taiwan and various parts of East Asia participating in all types of entertainment related events and charity activities.

Robert Plant Live at the Sydney Entertainment Centre

Following the announcement of his appearances on Byron Bay’s Bluesfest and the West Coast Blues and Roots Festival in Fremantle, Chugg Entertainment are today thrilled to confirm that rock legend Robert Plant will also be performing, along with his band the Sensational Space Shifters, at the Sydney Entertainment Centre on Thursday 28 March.

After life with Led Zeppelin, Plant began putting his wide-ranging musical fascination to good use on solo albums with Jimmy Page and in recordings with bands like The Honeydrippers, Priory of Brion and Strange Sensation.

Plant continued to expand his horizons with the 2007′s collaboration with Alison Krauss on Raising Sand and in 2010, he released an album with the Band of Joy co-produced by his band mate Buddy Miller (electric guitar, baritone, 6-string bass, mando guitar) and with fellow musicians Darrell Scott (acoustic guitar, mandolin, octave mandolin, banjo, accordion, pedal steel and lap steel guitar), Byron House (bass), Marco Giovino (drums and percussion) which also received 2 Grammy® Award nominations.

The Sensational Space Shifters are his latest project, a loose band "inspired by the roots music of Mississippi, Appalachia, Gambia, Bristol and the foothills of Wolverhampton and drawing on influences collected in a lifetime of meander and journeying." Along-side Robert are his semi-regular guitarist Justin Adams and Juldeh Camara from Gambia, Justin's Ritti - playing partner in their duo Juju.

Exciting audiences around the world, Plant presents songs from his early days in Led Zeppelin to his more recent adventures in the heart land of the US, in dizzy collisions of rhythm and power. His current companions have created a performance that digs deep into the roots of the blues, turning ancient, dark music that inspired so much of British and American rock on its heard. He mixes crazy trans-rhythms and psychedelic to create a powerful and unique adventure.

Robert Plant - vocals, harmonica
Juldeh Camara- ritti (one-stringed African Violin), kologo (African Banjo), talking drum, vocals.
Justin Adams - guitar, bendir, vocals
