Hi, just stopping by, as Softlavender asked me to help trim some of the exuberant fancruft, particularly in the productions section. Just my 2 cents: The article is entirely missing:
Also,
That's off the top of my head. I suggest that you look at Hair (musical) for more ideas, as that article is probably the best and most complete one on WP about a rock musical. I don't watch this article, and it is not within my area of interest, so I'd rather not be involved in whatever work you decide to do on it going forward. It it gets up to a much higher level and gets a Peer Review, I'd be happy to review it again then. Best regards! -- Ssilvers ( talk) 23:38, 11 February 2015 (UTC)
Here is a resource that addresses some of these concerns and perhaps others, as well:

Hi, as it seems universally agreed that this article is missing some basic stuff (which of course needs to come from reliable sources), I would like to highly recommend the two published books devoted to the work (I do not yet have either of them):
And also the book below, which has an excellent and fascinating 10-page chapter on it, really very revealing info about the exact inception of the entire work:
All three of those give invaluable background, history, and analysis.
(Here also is a scholarly article I ran across fairly randomly, which may be useful but is possibly overly academic: [2].)

Hello fellow Wikipedians,
I have just added archive links to one external link on

I strongly suggest that this information is included in the article. The production toured in the UK and Australia and was due to start in the US but was cancelled at minimum notice. The cancellation made mainstream news ( http://www.bbc.co.uk/news/entertainment-arts-27654807) and the cost of the production was in the millions of dollars region. I argue that this is a significant and notable event in the history of the musical and as such should be included in this article. CaptainPedge | Talk 00:36, 16 September 2015 (UTC)

Afterwriting, you have currently reverted to a problematical version of the article [4]. Namely:
-- Softlavender ( talk) 04:59, 7 September 2019 (UTC)
I just edited the plot slightly, regarding Judas returning to speak to Jesus at his crucifixion. My rationale should appear in the edit history. Basically my view is that I don't think it's clear that the Superstar is the ghost of Judas haunting Jesus, I always read it as a pretty blatant author-insert asking questions about Christianity in general. Of course there's multiple ways to play it, so I have tried to make the amendment neutral re: Judas' motives etc. — Preceding unsigned comment added by 120.151.53.109 ( talk) 00:33, 17 July 2020 (UTC)
I've taken a WP:BOLD stab at reducing the length of the plot summary. It's about 50 percent shorter by word count. I did not remove the Overly detailed tag yet because I think the plot summary is still rather long and detailed. However it will be hard to make it much shorter without removing mention of some of the songs, and I didn't want to go that far. If anyone else feels the tag can be removed, feel free to do so.

Someone keeps changing back the actual words spoken (Your words. Not mine) in the Act, to the original, incorrect one.
