No. The first show they wrote together was called The Likes of Us, written in the early 1960s. The show was never performed until 2005.

After that, they wrote a cantata which eventually became the musical Joseph and the Amazing Technical Dreamcoat. That, too, only became popular after the success of their third attempt at a musical, Jesus Christ Superstar. Both Joseph and Superstar were recorded first as rock albums. Only after they were proven to be popular, did they make it to the stage.

Lloyd Webber and Rice worked together again in the mid-70s, creating the musical Evita, based on the life of Eva Peron.

Why did Paul refer to Jesus as Christ Jesus?

"Christ" is a title, and it is equally correct for it to come before or after the name of Jesus. The Hebrew writer (if not Paul) and Peter also wrote of "Christ Jesus" (Hebrews 3:1; 1 Peter 5:10 and 14).In the New King James version of the New Testament, "Jesus Christ" appears 176 times, and "Christ Jesus" appears 68 times. It just so happens that 65 of the 68 "reverse" uses are in the prolific writings of Paul.

How did the musical Oklahoma! change musical theater?

It was one of the first musicals to actually use song and dance to tell a story! Before Oklahoma, most musicals were stories with songs added in where convenient; they didn't really advance the plot, they were just for entertainment. In Oklahoma, Rogers and Hammerstein wrote dialogue between characters in song. Laurie's Ballet also explains that she is really in love with Curly, even though there is no spoken dialogue. Now we have musicals like Next to Normal, Cats, and Jesus Christ Superstar which are told entirely through music. Rogers and Hammerstein totally changed the way stories are communicated.
