Love you, Kris Montgomery ;)

Really sorry but I don't like her as Eva

Evita arrived in Buenos Aires at the age of 15 together with her aunt in order to study declamation. Stop with this!!!!!

jajajaj the tango singer Magaldi dressed like a Mexican mariachi, ridiculous!!!!!!!

Che Guevara admired too much Evita and Perón, be better informed, British writer!!!!!!!

She did everything for the people!!!! Viva Evita!!!!! It is a shame this false text!!!!

*Revised review 5/5/24 This is Evita, the budget version. Missing is that awesome raked stage deck with the textured floor that has rows of lights that light up from underneath and in the center there's a circle that lights up as well. The screen above doesn't move like it does in the full scale version. And it's also missing the row of lights that beam down on the floor from the bottom portion of the screen. The choreography is very simplified here. Should be much more forceful and thrilling. Pro dancers not needed on this tour, I see. The orchestrations are horribly thinned out and very weak! They produce a whimper and every now and then you hear the thundrous timpani but why bother when everything else sounds reedy and thin? The costumes stay true to the original designs but those wigs are tragic! The balcony does do that thrilling full turn after "Don't Cry For Me Argentina." I can hardly see any projections. Did this tour even have them? David Hersey's original lighting design seems to be missing something. Maybe it was dumbed down like the rest of this tour. The cast is VERY good. Kris Montgomery as Eva is excellent. My first viewing of her was on another video also here on KZbin which is filmed from a distance and you can't see expressions and I was also very distracted due to construction going on outside all day, so my initial review of Montgomery's Eva wasn't good. I said she was sort of common and generic. After watching this video, I have to say I take back what I said. Kris is a fantastic Evita! I really, really like her voice. One of the most powerful I ever heard. She does have a sort of girl-like quality to her voice which at first seems miscast but you soon forget about that and notice her amazing range and very effortless execution of that demonic score! She definitely ranks among the best like the Evas from the early days that all had their own unique stamp that you didn't soon forget like Patti LuPone, Loni Ackerman, Valerie Perri, Elaine Paige, Florence Lacey, and Derin Altay. While my review on the scaled down sets and simplified choreography, orchestrations, and lighting of this tour stands, the cast makes up for all of that and I can say I enjoyed this performance far more than I expected to.

Proving again that you may be able to hit the notes (sort of) but without star quality or acting ability, Eva goes flat......

Another phenomenal 10 / 10 😊

Phenominal cast. 10/10. This is one of my favourite shows.😊

couldnt stop laughing as you could see her wig coming off from the back when she sang Dont Cry for me Argentina!.......lol!!!......

Screen blacked out halfway through.😢

Rebecca Storm is just a legend! The short male dancer with the mustache is amazing and very hot!

I am so glad to "discover" Kris Montgomery! Thanks for the post.

Thank you so much.

That awful Che is acting like a cartoon character.

My favourite Eva is undoubtedly Rebecca Storm and the best Che I have seen is Chris Corcoran .

Thank you so much for posting this! Kris Montgomery is my aunt and I’ve always wished I could’ve seen this show!!! The whole thing is spectacular ❤

Anyone else notice that Eva’s choreography upon the exit of the aristocrats in “Buenos Aires” is simplified from the original Larry Fuller staging? Did this production have a different choreographer?

wonder why the orchestrations in the internation tour were so weak its the weakest of all versions sad face and those wigs

So happy to see this ...Thank you so much

Thank you so much for this. The original Hal Prince production (counting this) is the only one worth seeing.

Thanks for sharing this as well as the Rebecca Storm version. One can never have too many pro-shots of the original staging.

Why is it mostly white people- I thought this show is about Hispanics. Not white Hispanics

A rare treat, I saw the touring production of Evita before the (!) in the ealry 90's at the Bournemouth Pavilion. Rebecca Storm was and is unforgettable, her fully formed Eva in every mood and essence held the audience the entire evening. Her ability to belt as well lull in her silvery tones made it all the more entrancing, and the acting. Aside from the balcony scene, The Waltz I can still see in my head now vividly bought to life in this video. Thank you. (my only annoyance, at the time, and on re watching are the truly terrible wigs RS had to perform under)

Excellent video and performing

Wow, this tape is spectacular!!! I cannot thank you enough for sharing this! Hard to believe this is the second professionally-recorded video of the European Tour with James Sbano. Is there any chance I'd be able to reach out to you over email or some other form? I'd love to get my hands on the original digital file you've converted! My email is [email protected], I hope to hear!

Rebecca Storm, you ROCK as Eva Peron!! It was so much fun performing in the International tour with you!!

Why is Magaldi gay? They lowered all the keys in the Act 1 because she can't sing the score

I love her version of ‘A New Argentina’. Somewhat unique in style. She is a great Evita. Lots of ‘growls’ here and there. I’ve only seen her live once. That was as Florence in Chess. She was great in that role too.

Thank you for posting this ! A superb cast and recording.

Absolutely superb...A wonderful Evita ...Great to see Rebecca and James from this tour
