I forgot her name, but wondering, is she any good? I'll be in New York around that time and a friend wants to see another Eva besides Elena Roger, but I just can't stand Christian DeCicco's version, so uppity and bubbly. So, I was wondering, is the other alternate any different?

Jessica Lea Patty? (Whose name sounds like three surnames put together?).
I've only heard audio recordings of her Evita but of Elena and Christina, she sounds most like the "original" Evitas, ie belting her face off.

Christina and Jessica will be doing the role during Elena's vacation. Christina will take on Elena's normal schedule of six shows a week and Jessica will take on Christina's schedule of Wednesday evening and the Saturday matinee.

Thanks! Jessica sounds like a winner. I just don't want a pathetic non-entity Eva that I had to endure on the regional circuit for so long.

WHAT?!? No, it can't be! I thought her first day is on the 12th?!

She actually sounds fab like old school Eva's. This is in no way a poke at Elan Roger's singing as I actually they she is a true star on a league of her own.
