Vivian Beaumont Theatre (Broadway)
150 West 65th St. at Broadway New York, NY 10023

Cyrano de Bergerac, a play written in verse by Edmond Rostand in 1897, is a timeless story of love, insecurity, and the power of words. The play centers around Cyrano, a brilliant swordsman and poet who is deeply in love with the beautiful Roxane. However, Cyrano's insecurity about his large nose prevents him from confessing his feelings. Instead, he throws himself into helping Christian, a handsome but tongue-tied soldier, woo Roxane. Cyrano secretly pens love letters and poems for Christian, unknowingly creating a complex love triangle. As Roxane falls for Christian's perceived eloquence, Christian himself comes to understand the depth of her love, fueled by Cyrano's unmatched words. Cyrano de Bergerac explores the depths of unrequited love and the sacrifices we make for those we love, all while celebrating the beauty and power of language.
