I'll be playing Che this winter in "Evita", and I was curious as to who is everyone's favorite former Che?
I enjoy Colm Wilkinson's interpretation, but I must say I'm not an immense fan of anyone who has played the part. I really wish I had the chance to see Raul Esparza play the part. On a side note, did anyone get a chance to see him in the role? How was he? How did he play it?
"I'm engaged"
I mean no disrespect, but aren't you, like, 17?

have fun playing che! i've never seen a production of the show before, but i just wanted to tell you to break a leg! (not literally obviously)
iflitifloat ~ that has nothing to do with my post.
Yay Seany! I'm so glad you've updated us! I only pick one show a season to see and it looks like 'Evita' is going to be my choice for the winter!
Will this production be on Broadway?
ok, who is this sucks2beave Q?
Those type of negative comments are what we avoid at all costs on this board, if you have nothing supportive to say, don't read the thread.
Oh and Seany, I've heard Raul's performance was amazing.

YAY! I was waiting for someone to mention Raul. I've taught you well, aspiringguy.
I believe Sucks2bAveQ's most recent thread, Speak Ill of Avenue Q, was just deleted.

Why do I get the image of Macaulay Culkin playing Che Guevara?

I'd have to go with Mandy in the original cast - took the audience by storm.
And don't necessarily go by Mr. Esparza's performance, who had MANY MANY vocal difficulties with the role and missed quite a number of performances.
I'd agree with Mandy ...the one and only good thing he ever did on a Broadway stage !!!
Aw, come on now, Boobs!
He was brilliant in SUNDAY IN THE PARK WITH GEORGE!
Oops...you're right robbiej...I forgot about him in it because I'm always so mesmerized by Bernadette.

I also thought he was very effective in THE SECRET GARDEN.
Secret Garden yes.
And Wild Party as well.
I met his wife once.
She's lovely.
Yes to me too Mandy was the ultimate Che. Sadly it all went to his head & look what happened.
My name is Inigo Montoya. You killed my father. Prepare to die.
Gotta love that Patinkin!
Is "I'm engaged" a reference to "Magic Nights" from Sugar?
