‘No master to serve, no leash to bear.I walk as I please, and I speak as I dare.’
Poet. Soldier. Philosopher.Cyrano de Bergerac burns with brilliance.
Fiercely funny and intensely romantic, Cyrano lives by his words and his sword. Haunted by doubts about his own his appearance, he watched from the shadows as Roxane falls for another man. Handsome but hopeless with words, Christian turns to the one person who can help.
Following a sold-out, critically acclaimed run with the Royal Shakespeare Company, this ‘hilariously funny and ultimately heartbreaking’ (Mail on Sunday) production transfers to the West End for a strictly limited season.
Olivier Award-winner Adrian Lester (Riviera, Hustle) is ‘perfect’ (The Times) as protagonist Cyrano, with Susannah Fielding (Wolf Hall) as the ‘instantly charming’ (The Stage) Roxane.
Directed by Simon Evans (Staged, The Dazzle) and co-adapted with Debris Stevenson (Poet in Da Corner), Edmond Rostand’s timeless classic is reimagined with exhilarating wit, lyricism and heart.
