The musical, written by Andrew Lloyd Webber, is almost entirely sung-through, with minimal spoken dialogue.

This was Brandon Victor Dixon's show, not John Legend's. Dixon came as close as anyone possibly could to Carl Anderson's performance. Simply stellar.

[joyajohnson]

He ate this whole musical up. Literally one of the best Judas performances ever.

[davidleedutton]

The part of this song when Judas follows Jesus as He moves across the front of the stage touching hands with the audience is one of the very best things in this whole show. Jesus was a rock star, his followers adored him, and Legend plays that perfectly. Say what you will about his singing, this is one of the things he got absolutely right.

Carl Anderson, Tim Minchin, and Brandon Victor Dixon are the best Judas. Great acting and amazing singing!

[witchingbrew]

My favorite is always judas. He's the foundation of the show. And this judas got it right. He was a mix of the original and remake rocker edge.

[amazingronaldo]

Brandon Victor Dixon and Sara Bareilles were the best of this version for me. The two of them nailed their different parts!!

[zbotello]

I remember watching this when it aired. Norm Lewis and Brandon Victor Dixon were the standout performers.

John was Jesus Christ but Brandon was the superstar.

[mikefarrimond]

Excellent performance from Brandon Dixon. Carl Anderson would be proud.

[gandalfthegrey]

I'm obsessed with this version. Glad I can finally watch the performance of it.

[Regimentblade]

Idk why people have slept on this version so much!! I’ve watched it multiple times with my father, grandmother, grandfather, and have even used the songs in an online contest before because they’re vocally challenging and the slightly more rock style well done. So underrated!

[jasmynelliott]

I’m elated that they FINALLY uploaded this. Brandon Victor Dixon was spectacular as Judas.

[emilysheldon]

I don't care what anyone says, Brandon is my favorite Judas

[YearZeroZenith]

Brandon and Tim Minchin are quite possibly my favorites that have portrayed Judas

[riley]

I equate JCS Judas now with Brandon. He was mesmerizing. So talented. Here I am after Easter watching him again.

[calebsab]

Brandon Dixon was incredible..nobody can top it now.

[jennybroad]

My favourite Judas....and I've seen several including Murray Head in London in the 70s.

[smnoy]

Absolutely brilliant use of the live audience here

[crystalamachilang]

Brandon is so gorgeous and talented ❤❤ I'm in love.
