Cyrano de Bergerac
A gifted poet lends another man the words he cannot speak.
First Night is a theatre diary for logging the shows you've seen and discovering what to see next.
The story
Cyrano de Bergerac is a soldier, swordsman and poet who believes his prominent nose makes him unworthy of Roxane's love. When she confides that she adores the handsome Christian, Cyrano agrees to write the letters and speeches that help Christian court her, hiding his own feelings inside another man's romance.
In the room
The play mixes verbal wit, swashbuckling action and romantic tragedy, with Cyrano's command of language driving both its comedy and its central deception.
Good fit if you like
unspoken love, poetic language, swordplay and romantic stories built around mistaken appearances.
