But the ultimate is taking the story of the crucifixion of Jesus and turning it into Jesus Christ Superstar. Notwithstanding the fact that it provides historical perspectives not found in the gospels!

EDIT: I didn't notice this before, but the way my post reads implies that I am criticizing Superstar. I didn't mean to be. Since the first time I saw it it has been my favorite production of any kind. Rivalled now by some of the stuff Branagh is doing (Hank 5 being the best of that lot.)
