Argentina’s controversial First Lady is the subject of this dynamic musical masterpiece. As an illegitimate fifteen year old, Eva escaped her dirt-poor existence in the bright lights of Buenos Aires. Driven by ambition and blessed with charisma, she was a starlet at twenty-two, the president’s mistress at twenty-four, First Lady at twenty-seven, and dead at thirty-three.
Eva Peron – ‘saint to the working-class, reviled by the aristocracy, and mistrusted by the military’ – was destined to leave a fascinating political legacy, unique to the 20th century. Told through a compelling score that fuses haunting chorales with exuberant Latin, pop and jazz, EVITA creates an arresting theatrical portrait as complex as the woman herself.
