Tim Rice and Andrew Lloyd Webber’s masterpiece!
Set in Argentina between 1934-1952, this Tony-winning musical charts the young Eva Duarte’s meteoric rise to fame which takes her on a journey from poor, illegitimate child to ambitious actress to wife of President Juan Perón. By the time Eva was 30 years old, she was arguably one of the most powerful and iconic women in the world. To this day, Eva Perón’s imprint and impact are indelible but also heavily debated. Set to a legendary score by Tim Rice and Andrew Lloyd Webber, this incredible rock opera features hits such as, “Don’t Cry for Me Argentina,” “Oh What a Circus,” “Buenos Aires” and “Another Suitcase in Another Hall.”
