Evita Breaks Record for Jupiter Theatre

The Maltz Jupiter Theatre announced that it has completely sold out its run of Evita: that's 100% attendance, folks. This breaks the previous all-time attendance record of 99%, set by Crazy For You.

Evita has been done several times in South Florida, and on at least two occasions at the Jupiter Theatre. But earlier productions never sold like this one!
"This is the first time the Theatre has been able to achieve 100% capacity for the entire run of a show. We are grateful to the stellar creative team and cast for creating this landmark production," says Andrew Kato, Artistic Director of the Maltz Jupiter Theatre.
Crazy For You ran in the same March time slot in 1996, when Richard Aikens was running the theatre. The theatre never broke 95% during Burt Reynold's tenure as producer, although several shows did do very well.

Congratulations to Andrew and his entire team; it's an amazing feat , particularly in this time of reduced ticket sales nationwide.
