About Evita
It's a classic Broadway tale that one of the most obscure stories and origins have spawned one of Broadway's most beloved musicals. Andrew Lloyd Webber and Tim Rice's Evita tells the story of Eva Perón, Argentine political activist and wife of president Juan Perón and her struggle to unite a nation. The inspiration for the musical is a concept album on the subject first released in 1976. Its massive success then spawned a London residency before making the trip across the pond to Broadway the following year. Since then it's seen several revivals and become the first British import to receive the Best Musical Tony. Webber and Rice first began working on the music for Evita after Rice became interested in her story upon hearing a radio broadcast about her life. When the music began to receive public attention and acclaim, they decided that a musical was the logical next step- Evita: The Musical as we know it today was born. Featuring a relatively small cast of only five primary characters and a Greek chorus-style backing choir, Evita follows the life and times of one of Argentina's most well known and controversial leaders. Featuring history, beautiful Latin music, and considerable drama, Evita is a no-brainer for anyone looking to experience a truly original piece of musical theater history.
