Following their previous successes with Kinky Boots, Calendar Girls The Musical and Footloose, award-winning local group Northampton Musical Theatre Company return to Royal & Derngate with their fantastic production of the epic musical Jesus Christ Superstar, which they will be performing from Tuesday 28 October to Saturday 1 November.
