The Hunchback Of Notre Dame
by Victor Hugo
Highlights
Synopsis
This uproarious send up of Victor Hugo's novel is truly ridiculous - as in the famed Ridiculous Theatrical Company where it was a success.
Hugo's tale is enhanced with a hilarious assortment of major and minor characters, some in drag.
The score is an eclectic mix of country western, gospel, disco and rhythm and blues.
"Combines farce and pathos in the best Ridiculous Theatrical Co. tradition" ̃Tish Dace.
"Blatant silliness that proves too funny for words.
There is a lot of merry making in song that leads to wild guffaws from the convulsed audience" ̃Private Lives.
