Broadway Palm Presents EVITA

By:

Broadway Palm is thrilled to present the dynamic musical EVITA playing now through November 19, 2016. This Tony® Award-Winning production is based on the unforgettable life story of Eva Peron, an activist, suffragist and adored celebrity.

Said to be one of the most popular collaborations between Andrew Lloyd Webber and Tim Rice, EVITA tells the story of Argentina's controversial First Lady. Rising from nothing, driven by ambition and blessed with charisma, 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 in the 20th century. She was a starlet at twenty-two, the president's mistress at twenty-four, First Lady at twenty-seven and dead at thirty-three. The mesmerizing score features the memorable song Don't Cry for Me, Argentina.

Directing EVITA is Brian Enzman and choreographing is Amy Marie McCleary. Starring as Eva Peron is April Monte. Audiences may remember April from numerous Broadway Palm productions including Cabaret, All Shook Up, Miss Saigon, The Wedding Singer, CATS and most recently as the Narrator in Joseph and the Amazing Technicolor Dreamcoat. The cast also includes local children Jamie Dorris, Liam Hutt, Chase King, Maddie Negip, Hannah Roos, Annika Veldhuyzen van Zanten, Eli Veldhuyzen van Zanten and MariAnna Young.

The musical masterpiece EVITA is playing now through November 19, 2016 at Broadway Palm. Performances are Wednesdaythrough Sunday evenings with selected matinees. Beginning October 25, performances are Tuesday through Sunday with selected matinees. Ticket prices range from $40 to $65 with group discounts available for parties of 20 or more.
