## Sword fights, mistaken identity, and the guy with the nose tucked under the balcony – all the classics of a timeless love story.
“He’s aggressive and explosive and wears rather old clothes: but he has lots of panache (and a very large nose).” – Jessy Ardern
Written in modern verse and brimming with daring duels, quippy repartee, and a love triangle for the ages, Jessy Ardern’s adaptation of Rostand’s classic has us rooting once again for the noble Cyrano. This bold reimagining of a timeless romance brings a fresh, witty edge to the story of the lovelorn Cyrano and his rather large nose.
A gifted wordsmith and legendary duelist living in the time of the Musketeers, our hero is a loyal friend to the end despite a series of unfortunate events and an unrequited love that threatens to consume from within. In a world obsessed with appearances, can this warrior-poet with a beak to be bargained truly find happiness?
> **“Written in rhyming couplets and set in the 17th century, this funny and fresh new adaptation of the classic has sword fights, period costumes, and a devoted yet doomed love story – laced with nods to modern life, language, and energy.”** – Rachel Peake, Artistic Director
