To appear in the onstage ensemble and understudy the leading role of CHE (The show’s narrator, he provides the case for the prosecution, mocking both the deluded public and Eva herself as a woman and politician. Must be able to relate to the audience and take them with him on the dramatic journey of the piece. Must be able to offer an extraordinary range of versatility to take on the Everyman nature of the part) and the featured ensemble role of MAGALDI (See above).
