Victor Hugo once saw the Greek word "anarkia", meaning destiny, on the wall as he passed Notre Dame de Paris. Then, it became the inspiration of his masterpiece, Notre Dame de Paris, which has been interpreted in a variety of art forms. The musical version, which was written by Luc Plamondon and composed by Richard Cocciante, has been seen by more than 8 million people around the world since its debut in 1998. The English-language musical is touring China.
