Featuring a cast of more than 50 people, the show follows SMP's successful return from lockdown with Titanic: The Musical last year.

The group, founded in 1959 by parishioners of St Mary’s Church in Fishponds, now rehearses at the Page Community Association hall in Staple Hill.

The show is based on the true story of Eva Peron’s rise to political power and includes the chart-topping hit Don’t Cry for Me Argentina.

The show runs from April 11-15 and tickets can be booked at tickets.smpmtc.co.uk or by calling 0117 315 7800 on Monday to Friday from 3-5.30pm.
