Lighting Designer Jamie Roderick heavily utilized eight of ADJ’s flagship Focus Profile automated luminaires for last summer’s Wisconsin premiere of The Hunchback of Notre Dame by former Styx front man Dennis DeYoung. The musical was staged by Skylight Music Theatre at the Cabot Theater in Milwaukee, WI and featured an impressive production that employed gobo projections from the Focus Profiles extensively to recreate the atmospheric interior of the famous cathedral.
Based on Victor Hugo’s Gothic novel of the same name, Dennis DeYoung wrote his musical adaptation of The Hunchback of Notre Dame in the ‘90s and it debuted in Nashville at the Tennessee Performing Arts Center’s Polk theater in 1996. It was well received by audiences, generated positive reviews, and was set to transfer to Broadway, however illness meant that Dennis was unable to take the project further at the time. The show was first revived in Chicago, when in 2007 it was awarded the Joseph Jefferson Award for best musical. However, Michael Unger, the Artistic Director of Skylight Music Theatre, has wanted to stage the show ever since a chance meeting with DeYoung outside Chicago’s Steppenwolf Theatre led to Michael being invited to his childhood rock hero’s home studio to be one of the first people to ever hear the entire score of The Hunchback of Notre Dame.Read More »ADJ’s Focus Profile Illuminates Lavish Production of Dennis DeYoung’s ‘The Hunchback of Notre Dame’
