Maitén Montenegro

A free adaptation of Jesus Christ Superstar. The musical, shot in the Atacama Desert, transfers the action to the context of the indigenous peoples of the Andes and uses arrangements made with musical instruments typical of the region.

It was broadcast for the first time in April 1978 by Televisión Nacional de Chile and remained on the air for 26 seasons, originally being broadcast by the state signal until 1981 and subsequently from 1983 to 1989. In July 1992 it was broadcast by the newly created private station Megavisión, where it remained in regular broadcasts until 2004.
