A classic whodunit from the queen of stage suspense! On a foggy night, a stranger’s car careens off the road, leaving him stranded. When he wanders through the open door of a nearby estate to ask for help, he discovers the lovely Laura Warwick standing over the lifeless body of her husband, a smoking gun in her hand. The household is full of suspects and a Pandora's box of loves and hates, suspicions and intrigues is opened to the night air.
Not just an epic musical, but an insight into a truly extraordinary woman, Evita is the story of charismatic Eva Perón’s rapid rise from Argentine peasant to First Lady and voice of the working class to saint -- with less-than-saintly stepping stones along the way. This electrifying musical, winner of 7 Tony Awards, follows her journey from the gutter to the glitter, and creates an arresting theatrical portrait as complex as the woman herself.
Ryan played Gilligan in the 2009 first national tour of Gilligan's Island the musical.
