The romantically depressing story about the large nosed lover is now playing on Broadway. Kevin Kline leads the cast in this remarkable story, which also includes Daniel Sunjata and Jennifer Garner. Tonight is officially opening night for the production of Cyrano de Bergerac which will most likely have people lining up at the door to get tickets. It is a ten week limited engagement that is scheduled to continue through December 23, so don’t wait to long to see this incredible story acted out on stage. It will not be around forever.
According to the press notes, Cyrano de Bergerac concerns “the soulful poet/philosopher and brilliant swordsman Cyrano, who falls for the beautiful strong willed Roxane but is too ashamed of his large nose to tell her. Instead, when he learns that she loves the handsome Christian de Neuvillette, his dim-witted comrade, he pens poetry and love letters to Roxane.” It is story of character and of inner and outer beauty. The question that the play raises begs to know whether love or beauty will conquer all. See for yourself at a production of this timeless classic.
