Clopin Trouillefou SOCIAL STORY GOING TO COMMUNITY PLAYERS Welcome to Community Players! We look forward to having you as our guest! COMMUNITY PLAYERS THEATRE I am going to Community Players to see a show. GOING TO THE THEATRE If I drive or ride in a car to the theatre, I will park on the street in front of the theatre or in the parking lot across the street. LOBBY When I enter the building, I will be in the lobby. At the front desk someone will be there to greet me and help me get my tickets. SNACKS AND DRINKS If I get hungry or thirsty, I can visit the concession stand for popcorn, cookies, candy, and Coke products. If I just want a drink of water, I can use the drinking fountain by Concessions stand Drinking fountain the merchandise stand. BATHROOMS There are bathrooms in the lobby down the hallway. I can use the bathroom at any time during the performance SEATS When I’m ready, I can find my seat inside the theatre. If I need help finding a seat, I can ask an usher. THE STAGE The play will happen on the stage. Only people who work at the theatre are allowed on the stage. If I need to leave the theatre, I can go out the same way I entered but I should walk slowly. LIGHTS AND SOUNDS There may be different colored lights and the lights might flash during the play. There might be music and sounds that could sometimes be loud. I can always leave if I feel uncomfortable. ACTORS There will be actors in the play. The actors will wear costumes and pretend to be characters in the story. QUASIMODO Quasimodo is a character in the show who rings the bells of Notre Dame. When the people of Paris see him for the first time, they treat him unkindly because they don’t understand him. CLAUDE FROLLO Frollo is the Archdeacon of Notre Dame and Quasimodo’s caretaker. He dislikes all gypsies, until he develops feelings for the beautiful Esmeralda. ESMERALDA Esmeralda is a gypsy who travels from city to city, dancing and entertaining the townspeople. When she meets Quasimodo, she is the only person to show him kindness. CAPTAIN PHOEBUS Phoebus is a former soldier who has been promoted to Captain of the Cathedral Guard. After seeing Esmeralda in the town square, he falls in love with her. CLOPIN TROUILLEFOU Clopin is the proclaimed leader of the gypsies. He also serves as a narrator for the show.

INTERMISSION The Hunchback of Notre Dame has an intermission. That means half-way through the show there will be a 10 minute break from the play. CLAPPING At the end of the show, the actors will come onto the stage and bow. If I want to, I can clap to let them know I enjoyed the show. The clapping might be loud. AFTER THE SHOW After the show has ended, the actors will come out from backstage and I can say hello to them if I want. They won’t be in costumes anymore, so I might not recognize them right away! When I am done, I will leave the theatre to go back home..

  • Hunchback of Notre Dame’ a Hit for Town and Country Players Share This
    Tweet 0 Share Lambertville passes comprehensive plastic ban ordinance Front Page Around Town Arts Entertainment Dining Out Events Subscribe Home Subscribe Published On: Thu, Sep 20th, 2018 Front Page | By Charlie Sahner Amazing acting makes ‘Hunchback of Notre Dame’ a hit for Town and Country Players Share This Tags Hunchback of Notre Dametown and country players By John Dwyer My hands were sore from clapping and my voice was raspy from cheering after seeing “The Hunchback of Notre Dame” at Town and Country Players in Buckingham. I was bowled over by the performances, which I will go into further, and by director John Neuman’s utilization of the stage. Not only did he magically re-create Notre Dame and the streets of Paris in the limited space available to him, but he also moved a large cast through that space with a sure hand. All the elements of this show came together so well that time whisked by during the two-and-a-half-hour performance. Of course, who would ever want to leave the streets of Paris and this group of charming performers, regardless of the tragedy that gets told? The show has music by Alan Mencken (“Beauty and the Beast,” “Little Mermaid,” “Little Shop of Horrors” and “Sister Act”), and lyrics by Stephen Schwartz (“Godspell,””Pippin” and “Wicked”). The show was commissioned by Walt Disney. The focus of the story is much changed in the current musical adaptation. The original book had large portions describing the setting, i.e. the Cathedral of Notre Dame. Author Victor Hugo was writing this tale, in large part, to celebrate its Gothic architecture and to preserve the building intact in the face of those who wanted to “improve” it and make it more contemporary.

  • The Historian As Novelist

The Historian as Novelist John Salmon Delivered March 1, 2001 To start with, let me say that the title of the novel that is the subject of this talk is misleading. It reads: "The Muskets of Gascony: The Revolt of Bernard d'Audijos by Armand Daudeyos, translated by J. H. M. Salmon." This is false. When you write a historical novel things do seem to become falsified at times. I am the actual author, and Armand Daudeyos, the supposed descendant of the hero (Daudeyos is the Gascon form of d'Audijos) is a faction. I adopted this device for several reasons. First, it adds an air of mystery to pretend that one has discovered the manuscript of a historical novel based on real events in the seventeenth century and written in the Romantic vogue of the nineteenth century. Second, it allows me to insert a "translator's preface" explaining how close the book is to what actually happened. And third, it protects me from the reproaches of my colleagues for betraying my profession.

  • Audition Pack
    AUDITION PACK Please read all instructions carefully 1 ABOUT ‘HUNCHBACK’ What makes a monster and what makes a man? This is the central theme of The Hunchback of Notre Dame, a sweeping, grand-scale musical from Disney Theatrical. Based on the 1996 Disney film and Victor Hugo’s 1831 novel, The Hunchback of Notre Dame tells the story of Quasimodo, the hunchbacked bell-ringer of Notre Dame, and his desire to one day be a part of the outside world. When he summons the courage to attend the Feast of Fools, he meets Esmeralda, a compassionate gypsy who protects him from an angry mob. But at the same time, Quasimodo’s master, the archdeacon Dom Claude Frollo, and the new captain of the guard, Phoebus de Martin, fall in love with the beautiful girl. Adding to Quasimodo’s struggle is his punishment and derision from Frollo, following years of psychological abuse, and the danger posed by the gypsies, who are willing to kill any outsiders who venture into their secret hideout. But before Paris is burned to the ground, will Quasimodo be able to save Esmeralda from Frollo’s lust and anger? Will she return Quasimodo’s affection? Who is the true monster of Notre Dame?

  • Neocolonialism in Disney's Renaissance
    Neocolonialism in Disney’s Renaissance: Analyzing Portrayals of Race and Gender in Pocahontas, The Hunchback of Notre Dame, and Atlantis: The Lost Empire by Breanne Johnson A THESIS submitted to Oregon State University Honors College in partial fulfillment of the requirements for the degree of Honors Baccalaureate of Science in Public Health: Health Promotion/Health Behavior (Honors Scholar) Honors Baccalaureate of Science in Sustainability (Honors Scholar) Presented June 7, 2019 Commencement June 2019 AN ABSTRACT OF THE THESIS OF Breanne Johnson for the degree of Honors Baccalaureate of Science in Public Health: Health Promotion/Health Behavior and Honors Baccalaureate of Science in Sustainability presented on June 7, 2019. Title: Neocolonialism in Disney’s Renaissance: Analyzing Portrayals of Race and Gender in Pocahontas, The Hunchback of Notre Dame, and Atlantis: The Lost Empire. Abstract approved:_____________________________________________________ Elizabeth Sheehan The Walt Disney Company is one of the most recognizable and pervasive sources of children’s entertainment worldwide and has carefully crafted an image of childhood innocence. This wholesome image is contradicted by Disney’s consistent use of racist and sexist tropes, as well as its record of covertly using political themes in its media. Disney has a history of using its animated films to further a neocolonial ideology – an ideology that describes how current global superpowers continue to control the natural and capital resources of underdeveloped countries and to profit off of the unequal trading of these resources. The period of Disney’s history known as its animated Renaissance marked a clear return to the brand’s championing of American interventionism abroad.

  • The Hunchback of Notre Dame Opens at Tuacahn! August 5 - Oct 15
    The Hunchback of Notre Dame Opens at Tuacahn! August 5 - Oct 15 On August 5th, after much anticipation, Tuacahn unveils its production of The Hunchback of Notre Dame. From the Oscar® -winning team Alan Menken and Stephen Schwartz comes a lushly scored retelling of Victor Hugo’s epic story of love, acceptance, and what it means to be a hero. Based on the Victor Hugo novel and songs from the Disney animated feature, The Hunchback of Notre Dame showcases the film’s Oscar®-nominated score as well as new songs by Menken and Schwartz. Peter Parnell’s new book embraces story theatre and features verbatim passages from Hugo’s gothic novel. Hugo’s dramatic tale begins high above the Tuacahn stage as the bells of Notre Dame resound through the famed cathedral in 15th-century Paris. Quasimodo, the deformed bell-ringer who longs to be “Out There,” observes all of Paris reveling in the Feast of Fools. Held captive by his devious caretaker, the archdeacon Dom Claude Frollo, he escapes for the day and joins the boisterous crowd, only to be treated cruelly by all but the beautiful gypsy, Esmeralda. Quasimodo isn’t the only one captivated by her free spirit, though – the handsome Captain Phoebus and Frollo are equally enthralled. As the three vie for her attention, Frollo embarks on a mission to destroy the gypsies – and it’s up to Quasimodo to save them all. The incredible professional cast in Hunchback boasts fresh Broadway talent. Julian Decker, appears as Quasimodo, Summer Naomi as Esmeralda, Aloysius Gigl as Frollo, Ernie Pruneda as Clopin, and David Sattler as Phoebus and many more.
