Elena roger is absolutely fantastic. One of the best.

I thought the same thing when I first heard her. I felt bad about thinking that, though - she's an artist in her own right and should be respected her talent. Her singing voice is beautiful. And she's the only true Argentine I've ever seen play the role! Patti LuPone will always be Evita for me, though.

Just came across these comments today (in prep for going to see a touring production of Evita this afternoon) ... but I saw Elena play the role in London a couple of years ago ... she was truly superb ... her dancing was of a superior class and she brough power and tenderness to the songs in all the right places ... by far one of the best Evita's there has ever been in my opinion

This is amazing. Hands down. Anyone who claims otherwise is obviously uninformed. She is an absolute firecracker, and this performance simply sparkles. Simply a different kind of excitement and a different Evita than Patti's. Patti is a huge huge belter. But Elena saves her belts for the big moments, while Patti just plain old belts.

I miss the great musical dance break as in the NY production,but this is great.
