| | JS Online: 25 years later, Harold Prince comes back to 'Evita' |
 | | At 76, Prince has two musicals in development, and he's directing the touring revival of "Evita," which opened last week in Detroit. |
 | | In the musical, as in real life, glamorous Eva Peron (1919-'52), wife of Argentine dictator Juan Peron, grew wealthy and powerful in a poverty-stricken country and yet was worshipped by the public. |
 | | Prince may be reviving "Evita," but he also champions new work for the stage, particularly by the current generation of young writers, composers, directors and designers. |
