Backstage at the Broadway Theatre, Noblezada preps for an after-party at Tavern on the Green.

Eva Noblezada is the name on everyone’s lips after her star-making performance during the March 23 opening of Miss Saigon on Broadway. The show returns to the theatre where the original 1991 production originally bowed, in a new, authentic staging. Having played the role in the pre-Broadway London revival, Noblezada transfers with co-stars Alistair Brammer, Jon Jon Briones, and Rachelle Ann Go to reprise her role as Kim—and this production marks Noblezada’s Broadway debut. Playbill captured her as she left Saigon on opening night and prepped for the celebration at Tavern on the Green.

Flip through her transformation below:
