Australian icon Russell Crowe is set to be the Narrator of Ben Hur – the Stadium Spectacular at the ANZ Stadium in Sydney on 22 and 23 October.
Russell, who won an Oscar for his role in Gladiator at the 2000 Academy Awards, said “We all know the Australian saying, “Bigger than Ben Hur” and there is no doubt this show will be massive. It is an honour to be asked to participate, it’s going to be fun, that’s for sure, and I’m really looking forward to it. There’s a cast of 200, Chariot races, Pirate attacks. It’s huge.”
Ben Hur brings to life the Biblical epic made famous by the Academy Award winning Hollywood movie ‘Ben Hur’, starring Charlton Heston.

“It’s not a play. It’s not a musical. It’s a spectacle.”
