Spot on analysis, every word.

EVITA is perhaps predominately narrative, via Che, while HAMILTON carves up the action into scenes of every size and shape, and daringly even offers two takes on the same events, in record time. It begins with a point of access provided by an unreliable narrator, the compassionately drawn antagonist of Burr, shifts to the POVs of others, and still manages to burrow deep into the introspection of the title character. All the while showing, rather than telling.
