My sisters, today, with this vote,
<\/span>that old humiliation will come to an end<\/span>
<\/span>of women servants at the table<\/span>
<\/span>kneading the tears with the dough.
<\/span>And for the first time, a vote will count
<\/span>what history refused to account for.
<\/span>This piece of paper, with just its few letters, <\/span>
<\/span>contains centuries of suffering and crying.<\/span><\/p>\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t

\u2018El voto femenino\u2019 [\u2018Women’s Suffrage\u2019], by Pedro Orgambide and Alberto Favero,\u00a0<\/span><\/p>

from the album <\/span>Eva<\/span><\/i> (el gran musical argentino)<\/span><\/i> [<\/span>Eva<\/span><\/i> (<\/span>The Great Argentine Musical<\/span><\/i>)] (1986)<\/span><\/p>\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t

The story of <\/span>Eva<\/span><\/i> and <\/span>Tita<\/span><\/i>, Nacha Guevara\u2019s great musicals, is also the story of the strength of women in the face of a society that tried to treat them as second-class citizens. From the humble margins of society, Eva Per\u00f3n and Tita Merello challenged prejudices, broke down barriers and became national icons.<\/span><\/p>

In 1986, at the Maipo theatre in Buenos Aires, Nacha premiered <\/span>Eva: el gran musical argentino<\/span><\/i> [<\/span>Eva: The Great Argentine Musical<\/span><\/i>], dedicated to the life of Eva Duarte de Per\u00f3n and written by Nacha, writer Pedro Orgambide and musician Alberto Favero, during their exile in Mexico. Evita continued to be a divisive figure in Argentina. But this was a landmark show that put the spotlight on a woman who, both passionate and contradictory, transformed politics in Argentina and paved the way for future generations of women. When the musical was revived in 2008, audiences were much more willing to recognise the magnitude of her legacy.<\/span><\/p>

In 2011, Nacha tread the boards once again in <\/span>Tita, una vida en tiempo de tango<\/span><\/i> [<\/span>Tita: A Life in the Age of Tango<\/span><\/i>], a show dedicated to the actress and singer Tita Merello. Tita began her career in the world of tango and authentic and uncompromising cinema, becoming an icon of freedom and courage in an age when the rights of women were limited and often denied.<\/span><\/p>

These two productions consolidated Nacha Guevara\u2019s reputation as a brilliant actress and director of musicals that put women at centre stage. With <\/span>Eva<\/span><\/i> and <\/span>Tita<\/span><\/i>, she not only told the stories of two exceptional women, she showed that the struggle for equality and the right to make one\u2019s own choices have deep roots in Argentina\u2019s history. They offer portraits of two women who overcame obstacles during their lifetimes, and at the same time make statements about the transformative power that women wield when they decide to change their destiny.<\/span><\/p>

With these tributes, Nacha drew up a true manifesto on the critical and constructive power of women artists to address the challenges of the world, and of Argentina in particular.<\/span><\/p>\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t

\u2018Eva fulfilled her destiny. It is one of the things I most admire about her,
because it isn\u2019t easy to do. We all come into the world with a destiny, and it
is our responsibility to discover what it is\u2019.<\/span><\/p>

\u2018Tita was as wild at the age of 14 as she was at 90. The extraordinary thing
is that she never gave up, whether people liked it or not\u2019.\u00a0<\/span><\/p>
