Broadway veterans Lauren Kennedy and Kevin Gray will star in the Casa Manana Theatre’s production of the Andrew Lloyd Webber-Tim Rice musical Evita, to run February 5-13. Richard Stafford will direct and choreograph the production.

The musical brings to life the dynamic, larger-than-life persona of Eva Peron (Kennedy), wife of former Argentine dictator Juan Peron. The story follows Eva from her young, ambitious beginnings to the enormous wealth and power she gained. Gray will play Che.

Kennedy most recently appeared on Broadway in Monty Python’s Spamalot, with other Main Stem credits including Side Show, Sunset Boulevard, and Les Misérables. Gray has played the title role in The Phantom of the Opera on Broadway, with other Broadway credits including Jesus Christ Superstar and The King and I.
