Jesus Christ Superstar

Please can someoine refresh my tired brain - I have done it before but can't remember what the range is like on JCS.
My reason for asking is that one of my schools is putting on a production and I have been asked to play - my problem is that a couple of the nights might prove problematic for me and I am thinking about depping them out. One of my regular deps is a little worried about the range requirement and I am having a mental block.

Anybody able to offer some thoughts?

The last time I played this was in high school (second trumpet part), so pardon my (also) tired brain. But I think the highest note I recall playing was C# (two ledger lines above the staff), and this was towards the end (Judas' last song "Superstar"??). Please feel free to correct me. Now that would be a real fun book to play again.

I think that famous lick in the overture starts on a High D (C concert). It has been a long time though.
