Ciara Renee has officially put her stamp on the beloved character of Esmeralda. For those who were unable to witness her astounding performance at the Papermill Playhouse. Now you have the evidence that when The Hunchback of Notre Dame is ready come back to life on the stage. Ms.Renee is the one to portray her! She embodies her in every sense. It's life changing! :)

[@MediaLover194]

I saw Hunchback on Easter Sunday matinee (its last performance was that night) and Ciara, and the whole show, was great.

[@Silver54ful]

MediaLover194 Sounds wonderful. :) Were you able to meet any of the cast at the stage door?

[@MediaLover194]

My mom (and to a lesser extent me) had that same critique.

[@annaoffive]

I'm so glad to say I did have the honor of seeing it at Papermill Playhouse! It was awesome!!

[@michaelwilliamybarra2409]

I saw her when Hunchback was at the La Jolla Playhouse in San Diego, with my dad and aunt, and I'll agree with that. :)

[@3HeritageFilms]

The sudden bitterness at "I thought we all were the children of God" is pretty much perfect

[@theirishviking9361]

Dude her cheekbones could kill someone.

[@weewoosies]

so can her jawline

[@deputybluevein93]

Dude? Any one that starts a sentence with dude, is obviously an absolute whopper. Fuck up specs

[@alexandermackay9636]

I had the pleasure of seeing her at La Jolla before it went to papermill. absolutely breath taking. I will forever be bitter that this show got cancelled for broadway in favor of frozen.

[@RosesNightengales]

and now Spongebob :(

[@Lundy.Fastnet.Irish_Sea]

Lauren Faerber spongebob has more to offer than frozen musical actually.

[@beautyengineer2198]

Esmeralda is an outcast in real life too apparently :(

[@Kinglovesyoutodeath]

Esmeralda, the TRUE Christian in the story: Knows she falls short of God's standard. Acknowledges she doesn't deserve His company. Prays with the attitude of the Syrophoenician Woman. And sees the image of God in even the unlovely: _Open your mouth, judge righteously, and defend the rights of the afflicted and needy._ (Proverbs 31:9)

[@ruisenor8993]

That's beautiful I love that.

[@julz3tt3]

Kinglovesyoutodeath Amen xxx

[@jdbarret1]

Sure... Unless the afflicted happens to be homosexual or have pre marital sex.. also, since it's okay to have slaves, try and take care of them enough so that they wouldn't be classified as 'needy'

[@risipieces]

james barrett jr i’m not even christian but i was raised as such and: the religion is about love. period. and fuck everyone who uses christianity as an excuse to be an asshole to people who need help. it’s also extremely worth noting that the bible was written by man, and sometimes: humans suck shit.

[@savannahsmith4392]

This song always sends chills down my neck. It's such a heart wrenching story compressed into under five minutes. I wish I had gotten the opportunity to see the Hunchback as a stage show.

[@crazyloverofcats]

+Savannah Smith There is a version of the German version of The Hunchback of Norte Dame muscial on KZbin. It in it's entirety and complete with subtitles if you're interested.

[@savannahsmith4392]

I definitely will look into it! Especially now that I'm really in a Hunchback of Notre Dame mode with its soundtrack coming out yesterday.

[@crazyloverofcats]

Savannah Smith Look up Der Glockner Von Notre Dame with the user LordDarkrai9. Its really good!

[@julianaparris5384]

I'd love to see it too

[@younice9707]

Savannah Smith I know your comment is already 2 years old, but there's the full musical in English on YT :)

[@Jenna-zw6zm]

honestly, as an avid ATHEISTIC, this song transcends religion. Its has themes of selflessness and taking a stand for equality which is something super respected. it sends a message thats specifically directing it towards the marginalised group of people. honestly the whole play was condemning the institutions rather than actual religion.

[@Stephh99]

*atheist hon

[@shelbypoulain4249]

Sigh, I really wish more people knew about Hunchback of Notre Dame. It's my favorite story & Disney movie.

[@asgarmukadam1031]

If hawkgirl can sing. We need a musical episode of flash, supergirl and merlyn singing

[@symski]

excuse me we can't forget det west and winn

[@kestral52]

+Rachel Symski don't forget Cisco too!

[@ColinTC]

+Peter Kosanovich Seriously, do these guys even realize the musical talent they are enlisting as mere actors??? Someone please tell me there will be like a "Christmas Special" next year or something which involves your standard musical theme??

[@symski]

+Colin C I've been saying that they must be secretly planning a huge musical crossover bc there couldn't possibly be a good singer in every role just by accident. Also, if they do have a musical episode and don't make the joke "j'onn valj'onzz" i will ve very disappointed

[@brittmcv21]

+Rachel Symski omg and winn is perfect for singing an adaption of 'on my own' king of the friendzone

[@amandahovendon2143]

I don't understand why they didn't bring The Hunchback of Notre Dame to Broadway. They are doing waaaayyyy too much with Frozen. The Hunchback of Notre Dame would be way better as a Broadway show. And possibly easier too.

[@calibaby6913]

No real reason was given if I'm not mistaken and it would have been a pretty cheap show to make on average it was a very minimalist stage and few costume changes. I personally believe that because it took its story from the book rather then the Disney movie they chickened out as it wasn't "family friendly"

[@thedandomaster]

Nah it was too expensive is what I heard because of the large chamber choir needed to make it effective

[@monsterhigh47]

It was a broadway show. This is the broadway actress for Esmeralda

[@thedandomaster]

shelbyvamp It wasn't, this is the actress who did the role in The Paper Mill Playhouse production, in New Jersey

[@brennabrodbeck5183]

Daniel McNamee actually she is from the La Jolla theatre in California

[@NEPatriot]

So many superheroes who sing. I mean Grant "Flash" Gustin, Melissa "Supergirl" Benoist and now Ciara "Hawkgirl" Renee. Talk about having a super group of talented people,.

[@HaunaMyKiki]

+NEPatriot Plus Carlos "Vibe" Valdes. He' was a part of Starkid, and has been on national tour and Broadway productions. =)

[@rabcra]

+NEPatriot And Arthur "Rip Hunter" Darvill.

And we have Jesse L. Martin from The Flash and Emily Bett Rickards from Arrow. We deserve a musical.

i am not over how beautiful her everything is.

[@nicoledudley7050]

“her everything” yes. that is so true.

[@toricoleman6513]

her voice sounds the exact same on the recording

[@GrandiaKnight]

I've had the new Hunchback recording on hard rotation for the last week or so. It's so good and Ciara is amazing in it.

I LOVE the Hunchback of Notre Dame! Michael and Ciara are the perfect Quasi and Esmeralda for Broadway.

[@mina_9941]

Her voice is so beautiful ❤️

[@PrincessMeggala0913]

She is amazing. She's so much more than a superhero on tv....she is Esmeralda. I'm so sad I never saw the show at Papermill, but I'm super glad I have the soundtrack so I can hear her sing. ^_^

[@cas2914]

Saw her at the Papermill Playhouse. Her performance was incredible! Pure raw talent! Can't wait to see her as Hawkgirl in Legends of Tomorrow!

There are some songs that transcend the movie they were made for; songs that inspire hope and unmistakable love, this is such a song.

[@DanKeeleyMusic]

To all who think TV was her first following, you truly aren't a Ciara fan. She has been stage star for a while now and one of the best at that. Look up the actual Hunchback Of Notre Dame Soundtrack where she plays Esmeralda. Unbelievable performance

[@amykathleen2005]

She went to Baldwin Wallace for Musical Theatre

[@iluvzurara2]

ive been waiting (and still waiting) for hunchback to come to broadway!!!! it would be so beautiful!!! and she should reprise her role as esmeralda!

I AM: JEALOUS. WHY CANT I HAVE THIS KIND OF VOICE IT'S SO LIGHT WHAT THE HELL I LOVE U CIARA

[@stephpiano2908]

I actually prefer this stripped back version to the one on the cast recording. In my opinion having just her singing accompanied by a piano, makes this song so much more emotional
