Breaking Baz: ‘Snow White’ Star Rachel Zegler Signs To Play Eva Perón In ‘Evita’ At London Palladium
'Snow White' actress Rachel Zegler has signed up to star in ‘Evita’ at the London Palladium this summer, director Jamie Lloyd has confirmed.
Reached in New York where he’s meeting with actors being considered for other key roles, an excited Lloyd described Zegler as a “phenomenal talent” who will “blow the roof off the London Palladium.” Of that version, Lloyd told me recently that because the imagery of Hal Prince’s original production had “literally become part of our popular culture” it was “such a kind of challenge to try and tell the story from a different point of view, or with a different aesthetic approach that you really have to test yourself to do it.” Much Ado About Nothing, staged like a 1980s disco, has fared better with a joyful company led by the zestful duo of Tom Hiddleston and Hayley Atwell playing to houses jammed to the rafters.
