Based on Victor Hugo’s classic novel The Hunchback of Notre-Dame, Disney Theatrical Group’s The Hunchback of Notre Dame is a powerful musical that explores the fate of Quasimodo and the complex human relationships surrounding him in 15th-century Paris. Set against the backdrop of Notre Dame Cathedral, the story delves into themes of love, prejudice, and acceptance. The score features music by Alan Menken (Beauty and the Beast) and lyrics by Stephen Schwartz (Wicked). Enriched by soaring choral arrangements and a sweeping orchestral sound, the production invites audiences to reflect on the timeless question of what it truly means to be human. It remains one of Shiki Theatre Company’s most acclaimed productions. Quasimodo lives in the bell tower of Notre Dame Cathedral, where he has been raised since childhood by the archdeacon Frollo. Looking out over the city from above, he dreams of the day he might finally experience the world beyond the cathedral walls. With only the bells and stone statues for company, Quasimodo spends his days in solitude. But an unexpected encounter sets into motion a chain of events that will change his life forever.
