Ballet Hispanico's: Dona Peron

Episode #104

Length: 1 hour 27 minutes

Ballet Hispanico, in collaboration with choreographer Annabelle Lopez Ochoa, explores Evita Peron's diverging legacies in this invigorating new work set to live music by Peter Salem. Even as she rose up the ranks from dancehall performer to Argentina's First Lady, Evita concealed a secret past. In her rags-to-riches life that ended suddenly at 33, was she a voice for the people or a deceitful actress? Ballet Hispanico explores her life and legacy through a galvanizing performance in the Kennedy Center Eisenhower Theater.
