Absolutely fantastic performance. The music was excellent and the singing was out of this world
My wife and I had the privilege to see Evita on opening night, the cast have so much energy and deserved every round of applause they received. For me the standout moment was "another suitcase in another hall", I have never heard it sung with such emphasis on the words and their meaning within the song, Che did such a wonderful job narrating and Racheal has an amazing voice, the first few notes she sang left me stunned (in a good way) but I feel wrong to acknowledge some when the whole cast were amazing!
