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. Come see the Tuacahn Amphitheatre transformed into 15th century Paris and follow Quasimodo on his adventure. With rich lighting, exquisite set design, and spectacle that matches the depth of emotion drawn from a powerful story of greed, lust, sin, forgiveness and true love- it will be an unforgettable night, which is what you can count on at Tuacahn. The Hunchback of Notre Dame, Disney’s Tarzan, and Peter Pan now run in repertory through October 15th. Tickets may be purchased online at www.tuacahn.org or via telephone at 435-652-3300 or toll free 1-866-321-8051. *Parental discretion is advised as The Hunchback of Notre Dame portrays mature themes. ****** .

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.

I don't remember ever reading in my many browsings through the forum archives, how you got involved with HUNCHBACK. Was this one of those assignments that you had to find the passion for, or was there something about the story that attracted you to the project? I think HUNCHBACK is my favorite of all the Disney stuff I've seen that you've done. I like the way Kwosimodo (sp) has to learn to see himself as a different person than what he's been led to believe he was all his life, and with that new vision of himself, he's able to make a difference in his community. Good stuff. :) So I'd be interested in hearing how you got involved with HUNCHBACK and what attracted you to the project. - Peggy Answer from Stephen Schwartz: After Alan Menken and I had been working on POCAHONTAS for about a year and it was clear that the project and collaboration were going well, the folks at Disney offered us a choice of a couple of ideas they had been developing as a follow-up.
