Evita Tickets

"A petite dynamo from Buenos Aires making a brilliant Broadway debut, Elena Roger sympathetically portrays Eva as a driven soul who is not cynical about her machinations."

"Director Michael Grandage scores with a dynamic new ‘Evita,’ graced by an impressive performance from Argentinean actress Elena Roger and the ticket-selling presence of recording star Ricky Martin."

Variety

Steve Suskin

"Mr. Grandage's ‘Evita’ is an impressive achievement that should be judged on its own merits, which are legion. Even if you don't like Andrew Lloyd Webber's music, it will hold your eye from curtain to curtain."

The Wall Street Journal

Terry Teachout

"Much of the buzz coming from the new revival ‘Evita’ has been about the spitfire Argentine playing the title role. But all of the heat actually comes from the guy shaking his bon-bon. Ricky Martin is easily the best thing about this revival of Andrew Lloyd Webber's bio of Eva Peron. He sings beautifully, dances gracefully, athletically climbs ladders, plays his role with a knowing sneer and elicits drools in his suspenders and tight white shirt. He even makes a mustache work. In fact, maybe it's time for Broadway to have a new rule: Put Ricky Martin in everything."

"Ricky Martin gives a great big touch of star quality to the seductive revival of ‘Evita’ at the Marquis. Seductive, sexy and sublime! One Can’t help but lean in, desperate for more."

Joe Dziemianowicz

"This is a big, fat, juicy blockbuster of a show. Martin is a supernova of charisma in the key part of Che. Roger is an outstanding actress. But there’s no denying the nearly physical impact ‘Evita’ has on an audience. The woman and the show are back for good. Don’t keep your distance."
