Telling the story of Eva Peron, wife of former Argentine dictator Juan Peron, Evita follows Eva's journey from humble beginnings through to extraordinary wealth, power and iconic status which ultimately led her to be heralded as the "spiritual leader of the nation" by the Argentine people.

With more than 20 major awards to its credit, Evita features some of the most iconic songs in musical theatre, including Don't Cry For Me Argentina, On This Night Of A Thousand Stars, You Must Love Me, and Another Suitcase In Another Hall.
