The famed French musical comes to Shanghai and will be a before-Christmas treat for theater fans. Notre Dame de Paris will be staged in English. While most musicals feature many actors singing and dancing onstage at once, Notre Dame de Paris assigns the singing to seven main actors, while dancers and acrobats perform alongside.
