The phenomenal leading man of Jamie Lloyd’s Evita on his “once in a lifetime journey” playing Che, honouring the legends who have played the role before him and the pride he felt having his family seated on second row for his official West End opening night at the London Palladium.

Plus, he reflects on his journey with Sunset Boulevard on Broadway and how it led him to London, learning from his former New York co-stars including Nicole Scherzinger and Tom Francis, and why his “superstar” leading lady Rachel Zegler is “a pillar of hope for a lot of Latinos”.

And, how he sees all your memes about his iconic curtain call moment in the paint and his underwear - and loves it!
