Ended an otherwise wearying day (dreary weather, unengaged students) by seeing this silly but very well done spoof, whose talented cast includes two actors who've sung the title role in Jesus Christ Superstar! The surprises: the Altar Boyz are supposed to be a Catholic boy band; Mark loves Matthew; and besides Matthew, Mark, Luke and Juan there's Abraham, a Jewish kid who just happened to be hanging out with the guys when God called: he's the soul of the group!
