Review: CYRANO DE BERGERAC, Starring Adrian Lester, Noël Coward Theatre
by Cindy Marcolina - Jun 26, 2026

Edmond Rostand’s classic comes back to the West End with a new adaptation by Simon Evans and Debris Stevenson. This is a drastically different approach from the last time we saw Cyrano on a commercial stage. If Jamie Llloyd redefined the story in 2019, Evans grounds it back to its roots in an open-hearted celebration of emotion, language, and empathy. With Cyrano, Rostand explores the timeless relation between inner and outer beauty. Adrian Lester shines as the big-schnozzed poet, joined by the remarkable Susannah Fielding as Roxane.
