The production is directed by Engeman veteran Igor Goldin and will run through Nov. 2 with an official opening Sept. 20 at 8 PM. Antoinette DiPietropolo choreographs and James Olmstead music directs.
Here's how the theater bills the production, "For decades, theater-lovers have thrilled to the story of Evita, which recounts Eva Peron鈥檚 meteoric rise from the slums of Argentina to the presidential mansion as First Lady. Adored by her people as a champion for the poor, she became one of the most powerful women in the world---while her greed, outsized ambition and fragile health made her one of the most tragic. Evita tells Eva鈥檚 passionate and unforgettable true story and features some of theater鈥檚 most beautiful songs."
The cast includes Broadway regulars (Grease, Young Frankenstein) as Eva Peron, () as Che, (La Cage Aux Folles, Chicago) as Peron and (In The Heights) as Magaldi. Ashley Perez plays The Mistress. The ensemble includes Justin Gregory Lopez, Ryan Rhue, Gilbert Sanchez, Larry Lozier Jr., Paul Velutis, Megan Koumis, Erika Peterson, Hallie Silverston and Emily Esposito.
The design team includes Daniel Willis (Scenic Design), Kurt Alger (Costume and Wig Design), Zach Blane (Lighting Design), Craig Kaufman (Sound Design) and Meagan Miller-McKeever (Props Design).
