In this episode of Queerly’s Stage and Screen Podcast, Harvey Morton is joined by James Olivas, currently starring as Juan Perón in Jamie Lloyd’s revolutionary production of EVITA at the London Palladium.

James shares his fascinating journey from the football fields of Texas to becoming one of the West End’s most exciting leading men. Growing up in a conservative environment with a father who was a mechanical engineer, James initially followed a similar path until knee injuries forced him to step away from sports – opening an unexpected door to theatre through a local production of Ragtime.

EVITA runs at the London Palladium through September 6, 2025. Book tickets now
