* AdaptationalAttractiveness: Quasimodo is played by the adorably baby-faced Garou. He’s given makeup that's meant to distort his features, but the success varies greatly by the production and actor's actual face.

* AdaptationalHeroism: Gringoire isn't a villain in the book, but he's feckless and short-sighted, and chooses to save Esmeralda's pet goat Djali over Esmeralda herself when he can only fit either the girl or the goat in his escape boat (which pretty much seals her fate). In this musical, he befriends Esmeralda very quickly and affectionately after she saves him at the Court of Miracles, and despite his initial obliviousness to his other friend Frollo's designs on her, he comes to join Quasimodo in his rescue of her outcast friends and fights against Frollo and his corrupt forces in the end.

** Fleur-de-Lys also has a one, in "La Monture", about how she was destroyed by Phoebus and she'll only take him back if he hangs Esmeralda.
* DoesThisRemindYouOfAnything: The background of the story is a comment on France's ongoing migrant crisis- specifically, the way foreign refugees and migrants are pushed to the margins and denied care from the parts of French society that are meant to provide for them. Clopin's band of outcasts are neither Romani nor beggars in this version- they're explicitly undocumented immigrants.
** The soldiers under Phoebus's command are dressed in padded jackets that make them look like modern riot cops.
