Evita

So long, farewell! Evita finished at Fabulous Fox Theatre on October 20, 2013

Why see Evita?

EVITA tells Eva's passionate and tragic story through Tim Rice and Andrew Lloyd Webber's most dazzling and beloved score, including "Don't Cry for Me Argentina", "Another Suitcase in Another Hall" and "High Flying Adored," together with "You Must Love Me", the Oscar-winning hit from the film EVITA.

After researching the life of Eva Peron for many years, Tim Rice and Andrew Lloyd Webber released EVITA in 1976 as a concept album with Julie Covington as Eva and it became a world-wide hit. Soon after, the production debuted on stage in London's West End starring Elaine Paige and directed by Hal Prince.

The production transferred to Broadway and opened in 1979 starring Patti LuPone, who went on to win one of the seven 1980 Tony Awards the show earned.

ABSOLUTE MUSICAL MAGIC

I am both fortunate and spoiled.Opening night back in 79 with Patti and Mandy headingup a great cast.The magic came together that evening and the house came down.The show is absolutly wonderful(depending of course on who is up there).Attended the revival on Broadway last year but that's another story.If you have never experienced EVITA,give yourself an adventure and enjoy. ...

EVITA = STAR POWER

Do not miss this show! The 3 stars; Josh Young, Caroline Bowman and Sear MacLaughlin are all fantastic. They are gorgeous to look at, can all sing & dance, and they alone are worth the price of admission. However the rest of the cast is about the same. Young good looking and all a triple threat. If you have never seen it go. If you loved the original you will love this! ... Read more
