I've seen actors portray Raoul in such a way that I'm cheering him on as he rows offstage with Christine at the end and others where Raoul is portrayed as a smug aristocrat with the most punchable face in the world and the actor playing Erik actually succeeds in making the character romantic and touching despite the whole "murdering madman" thing and I hope just once the show will end a different way. But sometimes the actors play it in such a way that I hope Christine clobbers Raoul over the head with an oar while the mob gets its vigilante justice on, so she can resume her career at the Opera without being followed around by either gigantic creeper anymore.
But I really don't understand why anyone would like Hadley's Raoul. I have never seen the character played as so dismissive of Christine's concerns while also being so controlling of her. It's like now that an actor gave to Raoul some of the traits that make the Phantom such a dark and twisted character, tons of people think he really loves Christine. But I like Raoul to be portrayed as sweet and caring and protective, so that he contrasts better with the phantom, who is abusive and controlling even when he tries to be otherwise. Hadley's Raoul acted a lot more like the phantom should, and not one I would feel sorry for. That's not to say I thought Sierra's Christine should have stayed with Ramin's phantom--the anniversary concert was one time I was hoping she'd run for the hills without looking back at either of them. They were a lovely pair of controlling douchebags.
