Notre Dame de Paris - Adapted from Victor Hugo
Performance in French with English surtitles.

Notre-Dame de Paris (full title: Notre-Dame de Paris, 1482) is a historical novel by the French writer Victor Hugo, published in 1831.
Perth French Theatre is proud to present an original adaptation of Victor Hugo's classic 19th-century novel Notre-Dame de Paris (The Hunchback of Notre Dame), performed in French with English surtitles.
Set in medieval Paris, this is the story of Quasimodo, the widely-feared bell-ringer at Notre-Dame Cathedral; the orphaned gypsy Esmeralda; and people from all classes of society from beggars to the bourgeoisie. Our production stays true to Victor Hugo with most dialogue taken directly from his text (no Disney musical numbers here!), but we've added our own twists with an original ending and narration by a trio of wise-cracking gargoyles.
With beautiful music, costumes and decor to transport you into another time and place, this new production will enchant French and English speakers alike.
There are four performances only and seats are strictly limited, so book early to avoid disappointment!

PFT targets well being through cultural and linguistic development using the medium of theatre. We are passionate about sharing our wonderful French culture. We love creating events which inspire us and touch the hearts. We are aware it can be hard for Francophone children and adults to stay connected to their language and culture. We know, through experience that learning a language is demanding, particularly when you don’t have the opportunity to practice in a real environment. That’s why we established PFT.
