The Hunchback of Notre Dame
by Gaslight Baker Theatre
Apr. 17 - Apr. 18
The Hunchback of Notre Dame, with music by Alan Menken, lyrics by Stephen Schwartz, and a book by Peter Parnell, brings Victor Hugo's The Hunchback of Notre-Dame to the stage in a sweeping and emotionally powerful musical. Set against the soaring bells and towering walls of Notre-Dame Cathedral, the story follows Quasimodo, the gentle bell-ringer who has lived his life hidden away from the world. When he dares to step outside during the Festival of Fools, he encounters the brave and compassionate Esmeralda, awakening his longing for friendship, freedom, and belonging. As the ruthless Archdeacon Frollo tightens his grip on the city, Quasimodo must confront fear, injustice, and the meaning of true courage in a world that judges by appearances. Filled with breathtaking music and a timeless story of compassion and resilience, The Hunchback of Notre Dame explores what it truly means to be human.
