The musical “Notre Dame de Paris,” adapted from French writer Victor Hugo’s The Hunchback of Notre Dame, will take stage in Istanbul between April 22 and May 4.
A press release said the musical will come to Turkey after taking stage in 15 countries.
The musical speaks of the love which the deformed and deaf Quasimodo feels for Esmeralda, a beautiful Gypsy street dancer. It will be staged at Istanbul’s Zorlu Center PSM.
French writer Luc Plamondon and songwriter Richard Cocciante worked together to write the musical. After first exhibiting in 1998 at Palais des Congres in Paris, the musical sold over 10 million CDs and DVDs, as well as 8 million tickets, over the past 15 years.
The musical is considered one of the best musical in many countries and entered Guinness Book of World Records for the most successful first year of a musical. The musical will be staged with Turkish subtitles. More information can be found at www.zorlucenterpsm.com
