A revival of “Evita,” starring Rachel Zegler as the Argentinian first lady Eva Perón, is transferring to Broadway in the spring of 2027.

Director Jamie Lloyd’s new take on the musical, written by Andrew Lloyd Webber and Tim Rice, was a massive hit last year in London. The production will play at a Shubert theater to be announced.

“Performing Tim Rice and Andrew Lloyd Webber’s brilliant show in London was a dream come true, but being able to partner once again with Jamie to bring ‘Evita’ to  Broadway is a once in a lifetime opportunity,” Zegler said in a statement. “I can’t wait to perform for my home, New York City.”
