[This person talks a mile a minute. What an overwhelming presence... Still, it's comforting to be dealing with someone who has no problem taking charge in a situation like this. He's a little out of his depth right now. If Rui has an idea of where to start, then he can fall in step, maybe.]

O-Oh. No ...I haven't exactly had any acting roles. [Not yet, anyway. He will in fact be part of an award winning production much later, but he doesn't know that.] But my skills in ...singing and dancing are at your disposal.

[Lead role... that is also strange for him, since he thinks he's much better suited as the hideous monster destroyed at the end of an epic story.]

I'm. I'm not suited to anything bright and happy. Perhaps a gloomy tragedy, or a mystery.
