Quasimodo:
The deformed bell-ringer of Notre Dame and Claude Frollo’s charge. Lonely and staunchly obedient to Frollo, he possesses a vivid imagination that brings to life the bells and gargoyles of the cathedral. Despite his shyness and uncertainty, he quickly befriends Esmeralda. Big-hearted, and brave when need be.
Out There
Esmerelda:
A beautiful and free-spirited gypsy who possesses the strong sense of justice and morality that Frollo lacks. Compassionate, she frees Quasimodo from the frenzied mob at the Feast of Fools and, against her better judgment, falls for the cocky Phoebus.
God Help the Outcasts
Dom Claude Frollo:
Archdeacon of Notre Dame Cathedral and the most powerful cleric in Paris, he is the reluctant caretaker of Quasimodo. He will do whatever it takes to rid the city of the gypsy “vermin,” even as he lusts after Esmeralda. He is Calculating, manipulative, and obsessive. ​
Hellfire
Clopin:
The clever and charismatic King of the Gypsies. An air of mystery surrounds Clopin, who often leaves the scene in a puff of smoke. As the master of ceremonies for the Feast of Fools, he is witty and playful, but he boasts a darker, serious nature when not performing for the crowd.
Topsy Turvey
Phoebus:
Returning to Paris after serving in the war, Phoebus takes up his new position as Captain of the Cathedral Guard. Overconfident yet charming, this handsome, strong soldier makes the ladies swoon, yet his moral compass is also strong, and he openly defies the corrupted Frollo.
In a Place of Miracles
Congregation:
Gypsies, gargoyles, soldiers, and citizens of Paris. The congregation can be seen at all times throughout the show assisting in telling this story. Everyone in the cast will be a member of the congregation throughout the show.
The Bells of Notre Dame
Saint Aphrodisius:
A stained-glass image that comes to life.
Flight into Egypt
Frederic:
Lieutenant of the Cathedral Guard and loyal friend to Phoebus.
Jehan Frollo:
Claude’s reckless younger brother. With the gypsy Florika, he fathers Quasimodo, who he leaves in his brother’s care. Wild, passionate, and strong-willed. ​
Florika:
A gypsy and Quasimodo’s mother.
King Louis XI:
King of France, nicknamed the Prudent.
Father Dupin:
A priest of Notre Dame and Claude and Jehan’s guardian.
Madame:
Owner of a safe haven for gypsies.
