WHAT IS IT ABOUT?
Set in 17th century France, Cyrano de Bergerac is a swashbuckling, romantic adventure that tells a beautifully funny, poignant, and often heart-wrenching love story. The Aquila Theatre Company London/New York presents Edmond Rostand's play about an excellent swordsman with a famously huge nose who falls for the beautiful and alluring Roxanne. Robert Richmond directs his own adaptation of this classic tale of duplicity and heroism in the name of unrequited love (and poetry!).

Halfway through Act I of the first press preview of Aquila Theatre Company's vigorous new production of Cyrano de Bergerac, Anthony Cochrane, as the homely title character, began losing his long false nose. Though he re-situated the thing again and again with the tip of an index finger, it continued slipping and peeling away from his face. In the midst of Cyrano's duel with Viscount de Valvert (Alvero Heinig), the nose flopped to the floor. Cochrane retrieved it between scenes, but eventually resigned himself to playing on with his own more stable, if unremarkable, visage. Rather than undermining the performance, Cochrane's unruly artificial beak proved the inconsequence of make-up and cos[...]
