Jewison ( Other People s Money) adds some good exterior settings in the desert but Lloyd Webber and Rice s dialogue-free story (everything is sung as in a real opera) with its quasi-profundities about the inner demons of principal figures in the life of Christ is the real hook. Yvonne Elliman sings the show s best-known song I Don t Know How to Love Him. --Tom Keogh
