THE HUNCHBACK OF NOTRE DAME TO MAKE UK PREMIERE IN TWO CONCERT PERFORMANCES AT

PRINCE EDWARD THEATRE

​

Award-winning producer Jack Maple is thrilled to announce that the musical stage adaptation of Disney’s beloved classic The Hunchback of Notre Dame will receive its UK professional premiere with two special concert performances at the Prince Edward Theatre, a Delfont Mackintosh Theatre, on Sunday 17 August 2025. Tickets will go on sale at 10am on Friday 14 February.

​

A Spectacular Theatrical Experience

With music by Alan Menken (Beauty and the Beast, The Little Mermaid) and lyrics by Stephen Schwartz (Wicked, Pocahontas), this stunning adaptation includes beloved songs from the 1996 animated film, alongside additional songs written exclusively for the stage by the two Oscar-winning composers. Peter Parnell provides the book, bringing fresh depth to Victor Hugo’s timeless story.

The concert will be directed by Jonathan O’Boyle, with musical direction by Olivier Award-winner Alan Williams. Casting will be announced soon.

​

Set against the breath-taking backdrop of Notre Dame Cathedral, The Hunchback of Notre Dame tells a powerful tale of love, redemption, and the struggle between light and darkness. This one-night-only event promises an unforgettable evening of soaring melodies, passionate performances, and a full symphonic orchestra and choir, alongside a stellar West End cast.

​

Audiences will be transported by iconic songs including ‘Out There’, ‘God Help the Outcasts’, and ‘The Bells of Notre Dame’, as this extraordinary production comes to life in a way never seen before in the UK.

​

A Musical Legacy

Originally premiering in Berlin in 1999 under the title Der Glöckner von Notre Dame, the show ran for over 1,200 performances, drawing an audience of 1.4 million. A new version debuted in San Diego in 2014, featuring an updated book by Peter Parnell and additional songs from Menken and Schwartz. This version has since been staged in Japan, Germany, Australia, and multiple US regional theatres, and now, at last, arrives in the UK.
