Delaware All-State Theatre presents selections from Evita

Delaware All-State Theatre, a not-for-profit theatrical organization, will present selections from "Evita," the winner of seven Tony Awards, including Best Musical. Music by Andrew Lloyd Webber and lyrics by Tim Rice, "Evita" is based on the historical story of María Eva Duarte de Perón, a poor Argentinian girl who grows up to be the wife of the president of Argentina, worshipped by her people. This blockbuster musical, made even more famous as a 1996 Hollywood film starring Madonna and Antonio Banderas, shows both the righteous determination and the ruthless power, of Argentina’s 20th-century matriarch.
