Reflection
On march 10 in the PAC, at 7:00, I had the opportunity to be able to go and see The Hunchback of Notre Dame. It was a wonderful paly production, with some raunchy scenes, but, it was a very well orchestrated play, with well casted people and had very smooth transitions even though there wasn’t a curtain. The cast was huge, so great was need for voices that they had to hire a local choir to sing with them. The first scene is when you see the choir coming to and sing and take their place on the “pews.” They stay there for the entirety of the show.

So he raises him in the bell tower and quasimodo grows up ringing the bells and only having connection to Frollo who doesn’t really love him as he should. Frollo hates the day that has come because it's topsy turvy day and that’s when the gypsies are allowed to sing and dance in the square and have fun. This is where Clopin the prince of the gypsies is introduced. Clopin is played by Michael, Michael playes this part very well and was very nasally when he sang which was perfect for his character because the was a slick, con man who stole people’s money when they least expected it.

Being seen as good students, who were involved in a variety of activities, the Saints, who were upper-middle class, were able to skip class and participate in deviant behavior because they hid behind a façade.
