ABP most recently announced the return of Notre Dame De Paris at London Coliseum 23rd-27th January 2019, in co-production with Nicolas Talar for Enzo Products Ltd. Based on the novel Notre-Dame de Paris by Victor Hugo, this stage spectacular features an internationally acclaimed cast of singers, dancers, acrobats and a live orchestra, as well as unforgettable music composed by Richard Cocciante, with lyrics by Luc Plamondon. The original French production will be performed in London with English surtitles.

Associate producer Edward Johnson studied at the University of Exeter and, since graduating in 2013, has produced, co-produced and directed an extensive number of musicals and plays which have toured UK and International theatres. Edward is also an alumnus of the Stage One New Producers Scheme.
