| IMO - Gaston is no bully, just a buffoon - pretty comical in his puffed-up brainless vanity. Disney's version of Carl-Magnus, lol. Not a character that warrants booing. Even as things get darker in Act II, I don't see him as such a threatening character. Only perhaps in the fight with the Beast. I know that Ismay got booed in the original production of Titanic - that makes more sense to me - if indeed booing a character is really something necessary at all, lol. |

| Hugh Jackman was Gaston in his first professional stage appearance in Australia. At the stage door, a little girl who had just seen the show handed him her book for his autograph. She did not recognize him (without the stage makeup) and asked : "Who are you?" HJ : "Gaston. "Little girl ( snatching back her autograph book) : "Nooo!!! You're bad!" As narrated by Hugh. |

| Ha! I love that! But I also have to say I wasn't thinking about young kids booing - more the reaction of an audience in general, with a sort of knowing wink to the fact that they're booking the character, not the actor. I have to say I'm not sure I want to encourage kids to boo at a curtain call - unless, again, they're savvy enough to be in on the convention. ;-) |
