Zegler and Rodriguez will be joined by co-star James Olivas for a keynote conversation about the upcoming, “Evita,” which is set to hit the stage in early 2027. “Evita” tells the story of Eva Perón (Rachel Zegler) and her rise from poverty to become one of the most influential women in Latin America.
