Evita Too musical to play in London

A revised and expanded production of Evita Too will play in London.

Sh!t Theatre’s fringe favourite looks at forgotten female presidents, notably the first woman president in the world, populism, and legacy.

Rebecca Biscuit and Louise Mothersole’s piece blends political humour and comedy, DIY documentary and original songs and is described as “a barmy celebration of history’s most forgotten female leader.”

The show was first seen in 2022, now Judith Dimant Productions, supported by the Southbank Centre, will bring it to the Southbank Centre for a limited run.

Evita Too will be directed by Ursula Martinez and performed by Biscuit and Mothersole.

Design is by Zoē Hurwitz, lighting design is by Dan Carter-Brennan, composition and music production is by John Biddle, the music assistant and track producer is Jonathan Mitra and the stage manager is Rose Hockaday.

It opens at the Southbank Centre’s Purcell Room on 11 December, with previews from 9 December and runs until 31 December.
