Apr 30 2025

Malta’s Damian Buhagiar has been cast in the upcoming production of ‘Evita’, directed by Jamie Lloyd and staring Rachel Ziegler from ‘Snow White’. It is set to run for a limited time at the London Palladium.

Evita tells the story of Eva Perón’s rise to power, featuring timeless songs like “Don’t Cry for Me Argentina”.

Known for his recent role as Pablo in ‘Sister Act’ at the Dominion Theatre and his appearance in the ‘Gavin and Stacey’ finale, Buhagiar adds his vocal talent and stage presence to a star-studded cast led by Rachel Zegler as Eva Perón.

Following Lloyd’s acclaimed revival of ‘Sunset Boulevard’, this bold new take on Andrew Lloyd Webber and Tim Rice’s iconic musical promises to deliver emotional power and visual flair.

With limited performances and high anticipation, Evita is set to be one of the must-see theatre events of the year.
