Bella Brown, Diego Rodriguez, James Olivas, and More Joining Rachel Zegler in Evita on Broadway

Jamie Lloyd’s production of Andrew Lloyd Webber and Tim Rice’s Evita has announced more casting for its Broadway run at the Winter Garden in 2027.

Rachel Zegler once again stars in the title role, for which she earned an Olivier Award and a WhatsOnStage Award. She made her West End debut in the production, and returns to Broadway following her run in Romeo and Juliet at the Circle in the Square.

Returning to their roles from the London production are Olivier Award nominee Diego Rodriguez as Che, James Olivas as Juan Perón, and WhatsOnStage Award nominee Bella Brown, who will be the Mistress and alternate Eva. The production will also feature Ángel Lozada as Agustín Magaldi.

The ensemble will feature Giuseppe Bausilio, Mely Berdion, Brandon Borkowsky, Ayla Ciccone-Burton, Grace Conrad, Christian Jesús Galvis, Tommy Gedrich, Sydney Jones, Natasha Leaver, Maggie Likcani, Mireia Mambo, Sebastian Martinez, Justice Moore, Pepe Muñoz, Julio Rey, Ken San Jose, Victor Carrillo Tracey, Damani Van Rensalier, and J’Kobe Wallace. Swings for the production are Alexis Hasbrouck, AK Naderer, Regine Sophia, Francisco Thurston, Bryce Valle, and Michael Bryan Wang. The role of The Child has yet to be cast.

One of the West End production’s central staging elements saw Zegler sing “Don’t Cry for Me Argentina” live from the Palladium’s exterior balcony to crowds gathered in the street below. In the transfer announcement, Lloyd has confirmed that he will reconfigure the moment for the Broadway run, which will not feature Zegler performing the number in public.

Evita will play the Winter Garden beginning February 27, 2027, in advance of a March 25 opening.

Zegler will not play Eva on Tuesday April 13, 20, and 27; May 11 and 26; and June 22. Zegler will not appear during the June 2 and 9 Wednesday matinees. She will be away from the production August 9-15 and October 25-31.
