  • EVITA, Part Two: Recap of the 1996 Film
    Sep 27 2024

    It won't be easy, you'll think it strange...when we try to explain why this episode took sooooo long to edit. We recorded over THREE HOURS of commentary on Alan Parker's two-hour-20-minute film adaptation of EVITA, starring Anthony's first idol at three years old, Madonna. But don't cry for us, dear listeners, the truth is we never left you, and we've whittled this down to a (barely) reasonable hour and 48 minutes. Hear what we thought of the third and final full-length original show by Tim Rice and Andrew Lloyd Webber, featuring the songs "Don't Cry For Me, Argentina," "Buenos Aires," and "Another Suitcase In Another Hall."

  • EVITA, Part One: History
    Apr 29 2024

    In this episode, find out how Andrew Lloyd Webber's unfulfilled dream of working with Hal Prince on Jesus Christ Superstar finally came to fruition on Evita. The opera, based on the life of Argentinian First Lady Eva Peron, was Lloyd Webber and Tim Rice's last major collaboration. Hear about the show's creation, a story of passion, lies, and PR that seems to involve everyone from Ann-Margret to Liza with a Z. Plus, Adam and Anthony discuss the new productions of Sunset Boulevard and whether we're in for another case of intercontinental dueling Normas.
