Hello, Handsome He already had that killer smile then GREASE must have been one of his favorite movies then...although that was released when he was just about 10 or so ( didn't he used to have a crush on Olivia Newton John then?).

Gus posted it that way. This looks better -- Anyway -- I think the actor who stands second from the left is the young Hugh Jackman portraying Professor Henry Higgins ( who gets to sing I'VE GROWN ACCUSTOMED TO HER FACE) Is that Gus portraying Freddy Eynsford Hill ( the one with the flower posy...who gets to sing ON THE STREET WHERE YOU LIVE?) Eliza Doolittle was played by Belinda Wilson (ahem!), who... Jo

The production was in 1985. So Hugh must have been around 17. And yet he was portraying a mature man in the show, albeit the lead role And if I recall right, Prof Higgins has three solos and was part of several ensemble songs/duets. But it was his phonetics skill that was the crux of the portrayal as he teaches Eliza that " the rain in Spain falls mainly on the plain" I would have loved to have heard Hugh's very proper English accent!

Gotta admit Gus was also a cutie back then. Heck, he still is, in his own teddy bear way. I was under the impression it was not Belinda who dumped poor Hugh but Jackie Masters? Marsters? Something like that. Unless he was heartbroken more than once. Silly girls from his past!

Hugh and Belinda were a couple, maybe the Jackie breakup was the one that sent him up on the roof to drink with Gus and Penny dumped him at the bus stop.
