#The Hunchback of Notre Dame

Saturday, August 15, 8:00 PM performance

Plot summary: High above the streets of 15th-century Paris, the bells of Notre Dame ring out a story of longing, judgment, and courage. The Hunchback of Notre Dame, based on Victor Hugo’s classic novel and featuring the sweeping score from the Disney film, brings to life a world where the line between sanctuary and prison is drawn by fear and broken by love.

With a lush score by Alan Menken and lyrics by Stephen Schwartz, including favorites like “Out There,” “God Help the Outcasts,” and “Someday,” The Hunchback of Notre Dame is a hauntingly beautiful musical about identity, justice, and what it means to be truly free.
