The character is named "Che", which is smething like Everyman in Argentina and it is a sort of narrator/commentator. Given his criticism of Peronism some have identified him with left-wing revolutionary Che Guevara, but that is quite senseless. It was Harold Prince who insisted actors playing Che in the musical tried to resemble Guevera (check Citron, Stephen, Sondheim & Lloyd-Webber: The New Musical (2001). New York: Oxford University Press), but fortunately the movie did not follow that path.
