Disney's Hunchback of Notre Dame Live - Act I: Sanctuary and Out There

[@Miximals7]

The actor who played Quasimodo in that production sounds exactly like the one in the animated version. And he sings really good too! I give him a 10 out of 10 for his best performance.

[@floodhunter85]

IT WAS PAINFUL!!!

[@MarioSonic2010]

His vocal range does sound a little like Tom Hulce when he speaks. The only difference I see is that Hulce has a vibrato.

[@enolamsamoht]

Yeah but they could have done better with casting frollo.

[@JulianneHannes]

Pretty damn impressive for a high school production

[@matthewcline2728]

Agreed!

[@kyuw3248]

This is a high school production??! Dang

[@solesurvivor327]

OK, for everyone criticizing this stage production, (and I won't stop you), I want you to look at this. Look how professional this is done, look how much work went into the set design, and look at how much effort and even talent that these actors/actresses convey. Tell me that other than the actual Disney movie that you've seen a better re-enactment. O.K., probably not, because I haven't actually found many other re-enactments, but as one of the originals, this is extremely impressive. I could watch this over and over, just as I watch the movie over and over. So for all the criticisms towards actors overplaying or underplaying their characters, I encourage you to just sit back and enjoy the musical.

[@nicolasgralewicz4727]

Watch La Jolla Playhouse bud...there's another really good (non German one) I've seen here...this one kind of sucks. I like a lot of their productions, their production of Phantom Of The Opera was amazing (I actually saw a pro production of Phantom at Princess of Wales) and Beauty and the Beast was great! The set-design is great! But...it's poorly casted.

[@MovieEnforcer]

Nicolas Gralewicz that one is overrated. This one is far superior.

[@JesseColton]

This is an absolutely INCREDIBLE production for a freaking high school. The performances included. These are teenagers, their voices haven't even finished developing and they aren't professionally trained singers yet, what they accomplished is really great. I mean yeah it's a private Christian school so they've got the money for it, but the cast is talented, you're just seeing them years before they make it to Broadway and are professionals.

[@christianrelig9643]

the guy who played quasimodo nailed it, the others were great also, but he really managed to emulate the character, lv it

[@allisonthomas995]

i love this version of out there

[@cattajk]

Please let both the town clown, Frollo and Quasimodo know they now have fans in Norway. This was rather awesome

[@CaleyWarrior101]

Dude playing Quasi sounds so much like Hulce. It's amazing.

[@janayasmiles]

I recently finished the newest production of Hunchback in King’s Academy’s youtube channel. It is so amazing to see how far this school has come. Even in 2013, the production value is unbelievable and the talent is on point. Amazing performances!

[@MovieEnforcer]

Honestly I prefer this version. Yes I even like The Gargoyles. My only issues with with show are Frollo's costume and the cop out ending.

[@ShadowDJ94]

Though I can say this, the actors in this are good. The guy playing Quasi is a good choice and while he isn't like Hulce, he sure plays the role exactly like how he was in the film, and that's a good thing :) Can't wait to see this get to Broadway.

[@JRod527763]

As amazing as this is, and as blown away as I am that this is a high school production, I feel like they missed a good opportunity during "Out There" by not having some extras walking out on the stage going about their merry lives for Quasi Modo to point to. I feel like that would have added a great touch and helped make that scene so much bigger.

[@Zarastro54]

+JRod527763 Yeah they certainly had enough extras to do it...

[@Loopyloualways]

This is very good. Love the changes that have been made aswell

[@Cla900]

i've always wondered why nobody did this any sooner! the disney film was fantastic.

[@DarkwingsDesending]

This is absolutely wonderful. I love this! Very professional done, but Frollo is a little over dramatic, but he is still very talented!

[@megamike15]

the extended version of frollo's out there is why i tend to prefer this version.

this is so awesome! I'm so happy this exists. Hunchback is the perfect disney movie to be made into a musical. The only problem is, I'd like it to be more dramatic like Les Mis, it is a Victor Hugo work after all, but the soundtrack is so great it needs to be the same... I've thought about this a lot... hehehehe

[@Dinoman217]

Luiza del Giúdice I thought it was a cross between the Les Mis and the Elephant Man!

[@ClopinGirl64]

Frollo: In here. Gargoyles: Out there. Frollo: *speaking* Hey, shut up, you freaking gargoyles! I'm trying to...wait, what?!? *sees a gargoyle waving at him* AAAAAGGGGGHHH!!!!!! *jumps off the balcony* Quasi: Master, no!!! Frollo: *falls down screaming from the cathedral then lands on the cobblestones and dies* Clopin: *enters the scene and stares at Frollo's dead carcass in astonishment* Oookaaaaay! Well, there goes our story. ^^;

[@roja2372]

hahahahahahahahahahhahahahahahahahahahhahaahhahahahahahahahaha god you killed me god stop!!!

[@Nasser851000]

+Florica Anderson This should be on HISHE XDDDD

[@ClopinGirl64]

ctl eurocollege What does HISHE stand for?

[@Nasser851000]

How it should have ended :)

[@ClopinGirl64]

Oh, yeah!

[@zacharymalinak3358]

I'm still unaware how he sounds anything like Tom Hulce....not at all. He has his own unique voice that makes his performance his own.

[@lauritattack]

iNCREIBLE, GRACIAS POR SUBIRLO A KZbin *-*

[@ashikibranch863]

Walt Disney Pictures Presents: (The Hunchback of Notre Dame) 1996

[@JulianneHannes]

For stage Frollo has to be loud because unlike a movie there are no intimate close ups, you have to convey more through your voice than your face on stage

[@EmmanuelleLunada2010]

Wow, Frollo is more impatient in this show, rushing through Quasimodo's alphabet. In the movie, at least he takes the time to listen.

[@millyskittles1071]

I don't mind the Quasimodo character, but Tom Hulce had so much more emotion in his voice for 'Out There'. He's an okay singer, but I thought it was somewhat lacking.

[@ColinLooksBack]

Why did they change Phoebus's name to Edric or Cedric (it's hard to make out what they said)? The change seems random and doesn't really make sense.

[@autumntaylor2533]

If the gargoyles in the movie were more like this, I could stand them

[@WonderfulLizardOfOz]

The thing about Frollo that leaps out at me isn't so much the over-the-topness (okay, that too) but that he's not singing to Quasi at all.

[@queenmedesa]

If this is the stage musical,where´s Phoebus song ?

[@ruthbarron625]

How interesting.

[@Loopyloualways]

But one question why has pheobus name been changed?

[@coffey611]

Is that caleb hyles I see...?

[@Thriller94]

The extension to Out There (Frollo's version) is much longer than the film! Where can I get the music and accompaniment for this?! :)

[@itsamekevin]

This specific version of Out There is from "Der Glöckner von Notre Dame" the 1999 German stage production

[@JJdaPK]

Frollo is a little too over-the-top in this version. He had a way of being intimidating while still not resorting to shouting in the movie.

[@xxkewldudexx]

Yeah, but that was because he had the pipes of Tony Jay (one of the classic "villain" actors in my opinion, along with Tim Curry).

[@aquin3066]

It seems a bit forced to me. I mean, you can see that the guy is no Darth Vader...

[@JRod527763]

Keep in mind, this is a staged production. Not a movie. There are people in that audience hundreds of feet away from him and not looking at a camera that's right in his face.

[@Dinoman217]

You're talking about Judge Claude Frollo! A man reminiscent of Hitler! I think the shouting was perfect for the part in the play!

[@JRod527763]

***** Odds are a lot of that was chosen by the director. Though I do agree that you have to pick your moments there.

[@JaylukKhan]

How did a school get the royalties to a musical that hasn't even opened on Broadway yet?

[@TKAWPB]

Connor Lachmanec Thanks for the question. In the past few years, The King's Academy has acted as a Disney test theater for The Hunchback of Notre Dame and Beauty and the Beast. We are grateful for these premiere opportunities and hope to continue to partner with Disney to introduce new musicals to the amateur and professional stage.

[@JaylukKhan]

Oh cool.

[@matthewcline2728]

Wow,'that's really awesome!

[@Piratearicat23]

+The King's Academy, WPB, FL If you guys help taking this to broadway, handsdown you are my heroes!

[@brookeworm18]

+The King's Academy, WPB, FL That's amazing! This was a glorious video! Great job to the cast, crew and director!

[@EC2019]

Quasimodo's actor plays the character very well but he is no Tom Hulce in the vocal department. I also think Frollo's actor is missing the point of the character a little. He is making him a bit flat and one-dimensional. We will see later on if he manages to bring that essential hypocrisy and Catholic guilt to the character. It is a shame that this production has softened him somewhat in its added sections and altered lines.

[@MovieEnforcer]

4:20. 5:39

[@EricSmith360]

obviously you can't compare this guy and tom Hulce because he's a baritone and Hulce is a full tenor!

[@nobodydusk1]

Honestly, if he had the range and a better voice, it wouldn't be that bad. Baritones can sing tenor notes quite well, you just need to be trained the right way...he, however, wasn't

[@floodhunter85]

indeed...this quasi singer is shitting himself to hit the notes...terrible

[@xQueenyBee]

I really hate to say this because this is pretty good for a High School collaboration. But Frollo is a little over the top... Also, Esmeralda's rescue... Not the same without the horse. :) It makes the pun ridiculous.

[@theatreandart6862]

How did they get the rights to this???

[@ogphantom15]

lol XD love it not bad for High school

[@miep8675]

So, I guess there's no Tanz auf dem Seil or Ein bisschen Freude?

[@michaelwilliamybarra2409]

Correct. :(

[@playwithashleystark]

It almost feels as if the boy playing Frollo is trying a little too hard to, but other than that he's great.

[@EricSmith360]

I enjoyed that he didn't have the vibrato, but he cheated on the last note :/

[@JulianneHannes]

The guy playing Quasi sounds so much like John Cusack, which makes up for his lack of singing talent a bit. Plus Tom Hulce is a tough act to follow and match.

[@ShadowDJ94]

Oh lord, they kept the Gargoyles in this? Really? I hope they're just imaginary...

[@ClevelandTheGreat]

Well, I always assumed they were his imagination. He's been trapped there for so long and hasn't been raised with love, he makes love for himself.

[@ShadowDJ94]

Pierce Cleveland They fought off the guards with him. I doubt he imagined that OR the pidgeon attack.

[@ClevelandTheGreat]

Yeah there's that. Yeah. I don't want them to be real.

[@RegCShaw88]

Pierce Cleveland though there is a scene on the fight in which the gargoyles are pulling a rope, then it is Quasi pulling alone...I love them though TuT

[@ShadowDJ94]

KimAeminKongju88 Maybe he just tied it to the statues? I don;t know...

[@MarioSonic2010]

Aside from missing a vibrato.

[@aceofaces05]

While the play is good… I have to say that one who played Frollo tried a little too hard if that makes any sense? Yes Frollo was an evil SOB but this guy….just…a very bad performance for Frollo. Everyone else is great though
