I have ALWAYS wondered that about Evita and it has always bothered me. It seems like lazy acting because acting is much easier when you can employ an accent. I don't even mean that in an insulting way… it helps you quickly get into another person, but it is very odd when you're the only one. I never think accents are necessary when the entire play takes place in the same place where all the people would be speaking the same language. Like Evita. In something like Cabaret, it's harder because do we assume everything is in English? We have to, and then it is appropriate for everyone to have their appropriate accent when speaking to each other (German, British, American).
