The
Hunchback of Notre Dame (1923)
Starring: Lon Chaney
Clopin bought Esmeralda from the gypsies when she was young. Dancing in the square at the festival, Esmeralda is spotted by Jehan, the evil brother of the good archdeacon Claude Frollo. When he sets Quasimodo out to kidnap Esmeralda, Phoebus, Captain of the Guards, rescues her and captures Quasimodo. The courts sentence Quasimodo to be flogged, and the only one who will give him water while he is tied in the square is Esmeralda. After Clopin forces Esmeralda to leave Phoebus at the ball, she sends a note to Phoebus to meet her at Notre-Dame. In the garden, Phoebus is stabbed in the back by Jehan. Esmeralda is accused of stabbing Phoebus, convicted by the courts and sentenced to hang. When Esmeralda again rejects Jehan, he tells her that Phoebus is dead, even though it is not true. Clopin, Phoebus and Quasimodo all try different ways to save Esmeralda.

The
works of Shakespeare have inspired more operatic
adaptations than any other writer’s. Simon
Keenlyside and Natalie Dessay bring their
extraordinary acting and singing skills to two of
the Bard’s most unforgettable characters in this new
production of Ambroise Thomas’s Hamlet. For the role
of Ophelia, the French composer created an extended
mad scene that is among the greatest in opera.
An encore
presentation of this performance will be exhibited
in select movie theatres on Wednesday, April 14,
2010 at 6:30 PM in all time zones.
