The Hunchback of Notre Dame is part of Aurora Theatre’s Musicals by Moonlight.

Based on the Victor Hugo novel, this epic musical traces the journey of Quasimodo, a deformed bell ringer in a cold, cathedral tower as he discovers his inner strength. His guardian, Archdeacon Frollo, seethes as all of Paris readies for the annual Feast of Fools. Frollo becomes obsessed with scouring the Gypsies from the city, even as he lusts after the beautiful dancer Esmeralda. This beloved medieval love story examines, “What makes a monster and what makes a man?” and features a lush score by Alan Menken (Disney’s The Little Mermaid, Beauty and the Beast) and lyrics by Stephen Schwartz (Wicked, Pippin).

Free to the public, ArtsFest Gwinnett 2018 will be held on the Lawrenceville Lawn at 210 Luckie Street. Bring the whole family and a picnic dinner to enjoy during the show. Lawn seating begins at 5:00pm for the 7:00pm performance. Libations from McCray’s Tavern and food trucks parked around the Lawn with a variety of cuisine offerings will be available.
