Casa Mañana's production of the Tony Award-winning musical EVITA will feature Lauren Kennedy as "Evita," Kevin Gray as "Che" and is set to be directed and choreographed by Richard Stafford.

EVITA will play at Casa Manana from February 5 through 13.

The story follows Eva from her young, ambitious beginnings to the enormous wealth and power she gained. Featuring the popular song "Don't Cry For Me Argentina," this moving and inspiring musical is not to be missed. This show is suitable for most audiences, parental discretion is advised.

Kennedy has appeared on Broadway in MONTY PYTHON'S SPAMALOT, SIDE SHOW, SUNSET BOULEVARD and LES MISERABLES.

Gray's Broadway credits include THE PHANTOM OF THE OPERA, JESUS CHRIST SUPERSTAR, and THE KING AND I. He recently played "Scar" in the National Tour of Disney's THE LION KING.
