The Hunchback of Notre Dame at the Egyptian Theater October 5-8th
When Victor Hugo published his Gothic novel Notre-Dame de Paris in 1831, he could hardly have known it would result in performance on Park City’s Main Street nearly 200 years later. Yet indeed, the stage play Hunchback of Notre Dame will feature the Disney film’s Academy Award-nominated score, in addition to new songs by Menken and Schwartz, who wrote music and lyrics for the 1996 animated film. The play is produced by the Ziegfeld Theater company and will be performed in both English and ASL; it is appropriate for all ages.
The tale follows Quasimodo, the titular hunchback, as he escapes his malicious caretaker, archdeacon Dom Claude Frollo, to participate in Paris’ Feast of Fools. There he meets Esmeralda, a Romani woman who quickly becomes the fixation of both Frollo and Captain Phoebus.
