Evita on Broadway tickets

By: Tim Rice
Songs by: Andrew Lloyd Webber (music) and Tim Rice (lyrics)
Director: Jamie Lloyd
Cast list: Rachel Zegler (as Eva Perón)

Evita won two Olivier Awards in London for Jamie Lloyd's revival, and now the production comes to Broadway off of a wave of critical acclaim. In a five-star review, London Theatre wrote, "This darkly brilliant Evita is bursting with star quality."

It went on to praise Rachel Zegler's unique take on the role made famous by Patti LuPone on stage and Madonna on the screen: "She reads like a modern pop star, dressed in black boots, bra and hot pants, doing Beyoncé hair flips; when she collapses during a trip abroad, she might be battling a grueling touring schedule. Like an influencer, she’s always “on” in front of the cameras, but, in a poignant post-balcony scene, she removes her blonde wig (here evidently a costume worn by the consummate actress), and, exhausted, lets her smile drop."

Audiences can also expect fresh choreography and stunning visuals alongside a classic score in this nuanced revival.

What to watch for

• The musical also features the Oscar-winning song “You Must Love Me.”
• Star Rachel Zegler said in a statement, "Performing Tim Rice and Andrew Lloyd Webber's brilliant show in London was a dream come true, but being able to partner once again with Jamie to bring Evita to Broadway is a once in a lifetime opportunity."
• This is not the first time Jamie Lloyd has revived an Andrew Lloyd Webber musical; he previously did so successfully with Sunset Blvd.
• The musical premiered as a 1976 two-LP concept album before bowing on Broadway.
