Fans were crying for Argentina when they missed out on a full Evita performance from Rachel Zegler. The 24-year-old actress was forced to exit the London show following Act I on Thursday, July 24, due to an illness. People confirmed that it was announced during intermission that Zegler would not be returning to the stage as Eva PerĂ³n, with understudy Bella Brown assuming the role when Act II started - with an iconic performance of "Don't Cry for Me Argentina" - and finishing out the show. Zegler has not publicly commented on her departure or the mystery illness that stopped her performance.
