Atlanta, GA – From the creators of Joseph and the Amazing Technicolor Dreamcoat and Jesus Christ Superstar comes the heroic tale of one woman's rise to power in the midst of a national revolution. Follow the extraordinary life of Eva Peron–Argentina's controversial first lady–through popular songs like “Don't Cry for Me Argentina” and “Buenos Aires,” sung in contemporary rock opera fashion.

The star of the show, Courtenay Collins, dropped by WABE to chat with Wanda Yang Temko, the host of Afternoon Classics.
