Philip Peterson, who portrays Juan Peron, talks with PreViews writer Jennifer Pencek about his lifelong fascination with EVITA. Peterson also discusses his fondness for research, which helped him meet the challenges of playing a notorious dictator in the production of the Andrew Lloyd Webber/Tim Rice musical on stage April 9 and 10 at Penn State’s Eisenhower Auditorium. The podcast features an excerpt of “Don’t Cry for Me, Argentina” from the production.
