Rehearsals for the Australian production of Evita have commenced in Sydney, with the musical opening at the Joan Sutherland Theatre, Sydney Opera House, on 13 September.
Evita charts the story of Eva Perón, wife of former Argentine dictator Juan Perón, from her humble beginnings, through to the extraordinary wealth and status which ultimately led her to be heralded the ‘spiritual leader of the nation’.
This recreation of the original West End and Broadway production of Tim Rice and Andrew Lloyd Webber’s Evita, has Tina Arena in the lead as Eva Perón, alongside Paulo Szot as Juan Perón.
Evita has received more than 20 major awards and features some of Tim Rice and Andrew Lloyd Webber’s best loved songs, including Don’t Cry For Me Argentina and Another Suitcase in Another Hall.
The Australian premiere has been secured exclusively for Sydney by the Government’s tourism and major events agency Destination NSW.
