Christopher Julius "Chris" Rock III (born February 7, 1965) is an American comedian, actor, screenwriter, producer, and director. He was voted in the US as the 5th greatest stand-up comedian of all time by Comedy Central. He was also voted in the UK as the 9th greatest stand-up comic on Channel 4's 100 Greatest Stand-Ups in 2007, and again in the updated 2010 list as the 8th greatest stand-up comic. He is known for his roles in Dogma, Beverly Hills Ninja, Lethal Weapon 4, Nurse Betty, The Longest Yard, Bad Company, and a starring role in Down to Earth. Rock has also increasingly worked behind the camera, as a writer and director (and starring actor) of Head of State and I Think I Love My Wife. In the fall of 2005, the UPN television network premiered a comedy series called Everybody Hates Chris, based on Rock's school days, of which he is the executive producer and narrator. The show garnered both critical and ratings success. The series was nominated for a 2006 Golden Globe for Best TV Series (Musical or Comedy), a 2006 People's Choice Award for Favorite New Television Comedy, and two 2006 Emmy Awards for costuming and cinematography. Following the release of his first documentary, 2009's Good Hair, Rock is working on a documentary about debt called Credit is the Devil. In 2010 he starred alongside Adam Sandler in Grown-ups and with fellow comedian/actor Martin Lawrence in the remake of the British film Death at a Funeral.

This will be a direct a translation of the original 1999-2002 Berlin version This obviously based on the 1996 Disney film but is even darker in tone and borrows some elements from the Victor Hugo Novel. The only thing that would be different from the Berlin show in order for it to go on Broadway the only thing that would have to change is to give it a happy ending and they probably wouldn't allow for a sad ending. I was original going to an ending similar to 1996 but with Quasimodo killing Judge Frollo and Esmeralda surviving, but instead I'd have Esmeralda kill him because that was the original plan for the 1996 Disney film inspired by that ending with elements of the Berlin ending. Quasimodo brutally beats up Judge Frollo and nearly kills the judge by strangling him. Frollo grabs his dagger and slashes Quasimodo's chest and a fight ensues. Judge Frollo attempts to kill Quasimodo, but Esmeralda at the last minute kills Judge Frollo by kicking him off the cathedral in order to save Quasimodo. The three Gargoyles (Victor, Hugo, and Laverne) are confirmed to be imaginary and their humor is toned down. The Song A Guy Like You is used after Top of The World right after Quasimodo helps Esmeralda escaping the cathedral and is used as a build up for Heaven's Light. A revised version of Thai Mol Pyias is pretty a dark version of A Guy Like You and is a build up to Hellfire. Brutish Guard and Oafish Guard are more serious and not goofy.
