Evita
Music by Andrew Lloyd Webber. Lyrics by Tim Rice. As an illegitimate 15 year old, she escaped her dirt-poor existence for the bright lights of Buenos Aires. Driven by ambition and blessed with charisma, she was a starlet at 22, the President’s mistress at 24, First Lady of Argentina at 27, and dead at 33. The fascinating Eva Peron was destined to leave a political legacy unique in the 20th century.

Amadeus
By Peter Shaffer. In the court of the Austrian Emperor, Antonio Salieri is the established composer. He has given himself to God so that he might realize his sole ambition to be a great composer. Then enters the greatest musical genius of all time: Wolfgang Amadeus Mozart, who achieves that which is beyond Salieri’s grasp. Full of envy and hatred, Salieri sets out to destroy this child who hears the music of the spheres.
