JERSEY'S BIG SUMMER MUSICAL 2024
EVITA
An amateur production brought to you by the JADC, by arrangement with the Really Useful Group Limited.
Evita charts the young and ambitious Eva Peron’s meteoric rise to sainthood. Set in Argentina between 1934-1952, the Tony-winning musical follows Eva Duarte on her journey from poor, illegitimate child to ambitious actress to, wife of military leader-turned-president Juan Peron. The most powerful woman in Latin America, before her death at age 33.
The events in Evita’s life are presented in song and commented on by the show’s narrator, Che. Well-known numbers from Tim Rice and Andrew Lloyd Webber’s musical masterpiece include “Don’t Cry for Me Argentina”, “Oh What a Circus”, “Buenos Aires” and “Another Suitcase in Another Hall.”
The JADC's production is to be performed on a purpose built stage inside the RJA&HS' main exhibition hall, where the life of Eva Peron and songs of Andrew Lloyd Webber and Tim Rice are brought vividly to life by a cast of over 60, supported by a full, live orchestra.
Book early and don't miss out on Jersey's spectacular summer musical.
