“That’s right, Evita—stamp your feet and clap your hands…. She simply seduced a country!” Starring Patti LuPone and Mandy Patinkin.
Act II: SCTV’s spoof, “Indira,” starring Andrea Martin, now appearing on Broadway in “Young Frankenstein.”

February 29, 2008 at 18:10OH MY GOWD!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!— I’ve NEVER seen that and I was in the show 3 times (Toledo, Cincinnati, and Chicago) LOL LOL — wow Patty looks so much like the real Eva in the balcony scene LOL — I”ve seen pictures but it’s a treat to see her really sing it in costume.
Now I heard that it was actually a horribly staged show by today’s standards. Did anyone see the original and think the same???

March 1, 2008 at 09:30Bonus joke in there…the Pittsburgh tour date says “featuring Don Brockett”…he was the absolute center of musical theater and variety in Pittsburgh around then. Better known as “Chef Brockett” from Mr. Rogers. He always whispered as the Chef because his speaking voice was like 30-grit sandpaper doused in cigar smoke.

February 29, 2008 at 17:34WOW I haven’t seen the Evita commercial in ages, but boy do I remember it well. They used to play it here when Evita was on tour in Chicago.
