I rearranged the placement of two different lines in “High Flying Adored” while I was doing Evita last year at the Stratford Shakespeare Festival. One of the verses starts “High flying adored / I hope you come / to terms with boredom” and another verse is “High flying adored / did you believe / in your wildest moments…” I combined them to say “High flying adored / I hope you come / in your wildest moments.” Che obviously cared about Eva’s pleasure that day.
