The critically acclaimed and record breaking production of Cyrano de Bergerac, Edmond Rostand's 1897 romantic classic with a translation and adaptation by Anthony Burgess, recouped its initial investment in the eighth week of its engagement. 

The production played its final performance on Sunday, January 6, 2008.  It was originally set to close on Sunday, December 23, 2007 but was extended for two weeks due to popular demand.  The production, starring Kevin Kline, Jennifer Garner and Daniel Sunjata, directed by David Leveaux, began previews on October 12, 2007 and opened on November 1, 2007 at the Richard Rodgers Theater (226 W. 46th Street).

"Based on a true story, Cyrano de Bergerac is a classic tale of romance and tragedy.  The soulful poet/philosopher and brilliant swordsman Cyrano (Kline), a cadet in the French Army, falls for the beautiful, strong-willed Roxane (Garner), but is too ashamed of his large nose to tell her.  Instead, when he learns that she loves the handsome Christian de Neuvillette (Sunjata), his dim-witted comrade, he pens poetry and love letters to Roxane on Christian's behalf.  After many years, the truth is revealed.  Will love or beauty conquer all?"

The production stared Kevin Kline as Cyrano de Bergerac, Jennifer Garner as Roxane, Daniel Sunjata as Christian de Neuvillette, Max Baker as Ragueneau, Euan Morton as Ligniere, Chris Sarandon as Comte de Guiche, John Douglas Thompson as Le Bret and Concetta Tomei as Roxane's Duenna .  The rest of the cast includes Tom Bloom as Montfleury, Peter Jay Fernandez as Carbon de Castel-Jaloux, MacIntyre Dixon as Jodelet, Carman Lacivita as Vicomte de Valvert.  Nance Williamson, Piter Marek, Baylen Thomas, Daniel Stewart Sherman, Keith Eric Chappelle, Thomas Schall, Davis Duffield, Alexander Sovronsky, Lucas Papaelias, Fred Rose, Stephen Balantzian, Amefika El-Amin, Ginifer King, Kate Guyton, Leenya Rideout.

Cyrano de Bergerac featured scenic design by Tom Pye (Fiddler on the Roof), costume design by Gregory Gale (Urinetown), lighting design by Donald Holder (Movin' Out) and sound design by David Van Tiegham (Doubt).
