The Hunchback of Notre Dame at Calabasas Performing Arts Education Center

RING THE BELLS! Calabasas High School is proud to bring THE HUNCHBACK OF NOTRE DAME to our community this spring!

Inspired by the classic Victor Hugo novel, THE HUNCHBACK OF NOTRE DAME features music by Alan Menken (Disney's The Little Mermaid, Beauty and the Beast, Newsies, Little Shop of Horrors), and lyrics by Stephen Schwartz (Wicked, Godspell,Pippin). The production is an intimate retelling of the famous love story, with a lush, emotionally rich score and production value that will leave you in awe. Follow Quasimodo, the deformed bell ringer, as he journeys outside of the walls of the cathedral and into the streets of Notre Dame. His search to connect with others leads him to see both the best and worst of humanity. Under the direction of Bill Garrett, this production strips away the happy endings and takes us back to the darker roots of Victor Hugo's epic story of the search for love, acceptance and what it means to be a hero .

Discover why Stephen Schwartz calls this musical one of his favorite works he has ever penned.
