Producers Hal Luftig, Scott Sanders, Troika Entertainment & The Nederlander Organization have announced that EVITA will return to L.A. by way of Hollywood Pantages for a limited three week engagement; October 23 - November 10, 2013.
I have to confess that other than the misguided movie that was made out of EVITA, the only other presentation I'd seen was New Line Theatre's wonderfully intimate version a couple of years ago. So, I was curious as to how this show would play on a bigger venue's stage. I wasn't disappointed and you won't be either. The current production playing the Fox Theatre is a dazzling mixture of song (score by Andrew Lloyd Webber, lyrics and book by Tim Rice) and dance that's both engaging and thoroughly entertaining.
Broadway favorite Josh Young, who is currently starring as 'Che' in the national tour of EVITA, recently opened Game 5 of the National League Division Series between the St. Louis Cardinals and the Pittsburgh Pirates on Wednesday at Busch Stadium in St. Louis.

The current national tour of EVITA kicked off earlier this Fall to rave reviews and rapt audiences and one of the featured players of the hit company discusses her memorably one-song role in the show in a new interview - Krystina Alabado as The Mistress.

There will be an evening performance on Sunday, October 13 at 6pm and a matinee on Thursday, October 17 at 1pm.
