Lots of people got really excited about the prospect of hearing
Johnny Rotten sing
Andrew Lloyd Webber at the Tampa Bay Times Forum. Lots of people are now disappointed.
On Friday, the entire national arena tour of "
Jesus Christ Superstar" was abruptly canceled without explanation. It was supposed to come to Tampa on June 15.

The cast -- including
Brandon Boyd of
Incubus as Judas, Michelle Williams of
Destiny’s Child as Mary Magdalene, and Rotten (here going by Johnny Rotten Lydon) of the
Sex Pistols and
Public Image Ltd. as King Herod -- was still rehearsing as
recently as Thursday, and the cancellation apparently caught them off-guard. Pictures of cast members gathered
together making obscene gestures directed at the show's
producers were ubiquitous on Facebook Friday.
As of Saturday morning, there was no reference to the show or the cancellation on the Tampa Bay Times Forum website, but a
statement from the production company said all tickets will be refunded.
If you have tickets, call the Forum at 813-301-2500 or check
tampabaytimesforum.com. If you bought tickets online or by phone, the production company says you'll get your refund automatically.
