Evita - Playing November 12 - November 17th
San Diego Civic Theatre
Evita is back on stage as the reimagined musical from Broadway comes to San Diego! Come experience Andrew Lloyd Weber' and Tim Rice's Tony Award-winning musical as it tells the tale of Eva Perón. "Evita" tells the amazing and tragic story of how Eva came from the depths of poverty to become the First Lady of Argentina. A polarizing figure, Eva rose to great heights as she was adored by her people as a champion for the poor while her greed, outsized ambition and fragile health made her one of the most tragic.
