Rachel Zegler to Star in ‘Evita’ Revival on West End
Rachel Zegler is making her West End debut in the revival of "Evita."
Theater legends Elaine Paige and Patti LuPone originated the role on the West End and Broadway, respectively, while Madonna starred in the 1996 film adaptation. Andrew Lloyd Webber wrote the music for “Evita,” which chronicles the life and times of Perón, including her origins, rise to fame, political career and untimely death. Zegler parlayed the critical success of “West Side Story” into leading roles in the “Hunger Games” prequel “The Ballad of Songbirds and Snakes,” in which she again flexed her vocal chops as impoverished tribute Lucy Gray Baird, as well as Disney’s “Snow White” remake with Gal Gadot as the Evil Queen, which opens on March 21.
