Esmeralda has captivated audiences for hundreds of years beginning with her original portrayal in Victor Hugo’s original story The Hunchback of Notre Dame. She was so popular in fact, that early adaptations of the novel to opera and ballet were actually just called La Esmeralda; yeah forget Quasimodo, people loved Esmeralda and I do agree she is fascinating. Have a magical day, fun people! #IsaacCarlson #esmeralda #backstory | Isaac Carlson
