MacRune's Guevara
Jeannetta Cochrane Theatre, 1969
(experimental branch of The National Theatre)
Role: Ché Guevara

MacRune's Guevara, by John Spurling, tells the story of a Scottish painter named MacRune who has covered his apartment with pictures of Che Guevara. After he dies, the next man to enter his apartment is an art critic named Edward Hotel. The art critic proceeds to explore the life of Guevara and MacRune -- as well as his own ambition. The scenes are alternately comedic, tragic and even musical.

The play premiered with the National Theatre's performance in 1969 with Jeremy as the revolutionary Ché Guevara. This was a truncated version ordered by Kenneth Tynan and became a subject of political controversy as some people viewed it as an attack on Guevara.
