City Lights Theater Company Closes 'Frank Langella’s Cyrano', 4/18

City Lights Theater Company of San Jose will end its run of Frank Langella's Cyrano, an adaptation of Edmond Rostand's Cyrano de Bergerac on April 18, 2010.

Directed by Kit Wilder

A thrilling romance, this is the classic tale of a man who longs to feel worthy of love - despite the nose that fate has dealt him.

Poet and swordsman, Cyrano de Bergerac believes that his enormous nose makes him unworthy of love. To satisfy his own taste for romance, he aids the handsome Christian in wooing the beautiful Roxanne, the woman they both love. Christian becomes the vessel for the passionate missives that fly from Cyrano's pen to Roxanne's heart. But as Roxanne finds herself ever more intoxicated by the heady cocktail of Cyrano's heartfelt words and Christian's dashing good looks, both men are left to wonder to which of them her heart truly belongs - until fate steps in and reveals to her at last the surprising truth that Cyrano has spent a lifetime concealing.
