6
00:00:25,924 --> 00:00:28,444
Speaker 1: the role of Jesus Christ and Jesus Christ Superstar. I've

7
00:00:28,444 --> 00:00:31,004
Speaker 1: never been more impressed by anything in my entire life.

8
00:00:31,164 --> 00:00:33,364
Speaker 1: He's a songwriter, a musician, and all around man of

9
00:00:33,403 --> 00:00:37,244
Speaker 1: many talents. He's currently on tour. Not only that, he's

10
00:00:37,284 --> 00:00:39,884
Speaker 1: been cast to play the one and only John Farnham

11
00:00:40,204 --> 00:00:43,484
Speaker 1: in the world premiere production of Whispering Jack, the John

12
00:00:43,644 --> 00:00:47,884
Speaker 1: Farnham Musical. Michael Painter joins us. Now, Hello, where he is?

13
00:00:47,964 --> 00:00:49,844
Speaker 3: I don't know what to say after that intro? We

14
00:00:49,884 --> 00:00:50,724
Speaker 3: can't walk the street?

15
00:00:50,764 --> 00:00:53,324
Speaker 1: Can I say? I have seen Jesus Christ Superstar a

16
00:00:53,364 --> 00:00:55,484
Speaker 1: million times. I had all the records. I sang along

17
00:00:55,484 --> 00:00:57,404
Speaker 1: with it, and I thought when I went to see

18
00:00:57,444 --> 00:01:00,724
Speaker 1: your production of it that it would be another teenage

19
00:01:00,724 --> 00:01:04,004
Speaker 1: thing along for me. I cried through a lot of it,

20
00:01:04,084 --> 00:01:08,884
Speaker 1: and I was so moved. I've never seen the story

21
00:01:08,924 --> 00:01:11,884
Speaker 1: picked it in such a human way. It was extraordinary.

22
00:01:11,924 --> 00:01:12,484
Speaker 1: How do you do that?

23
00:01:12,524 --> 00:01:14,844
Speaker 3: Every night? I have no idea and I'm just glad

24
00:01:14,884 --> 00:01:17,083
Speaker 3: it's over. No, that's what he said.

25
00:01:17,164 --> 00:01:20,283
Speaker 4: Yeah, the version of this of Superstar, this one by

26
00:01:20,324 --> 00:01:25,203
Speaker 4: Tim Sheeter was was very earthy and just it's great

27
00:01:25,203 --> 00:01:27,204
Speaker 4: to hear when people say those sort of things that

28
00:01:27,203 --> 00:01:28,003
Speaker 4: that came across.

29
00:01:28,044 --> 00:01:30,084
Speaker 3: I think that filtered through the whole cast. So it's

30
00:01:30,084 --> 00:01:30,804
Speaker 3: something I'm really.

31
00:01:30,844 --> 00:01:34,044
Speaker 2: And now from Jesus to someone else who's universally loved

32

37
00:01:47,164 --> 00:01:48,044
Speaker 4: of a journey ahead.
