CYRANO DE BERGERAC, A Play in Four Acts, by Edmond Rostand, Adapted for student actors by Gavin BantockThe fascinating tale of Cyrano—a witty poet, a skillful swordsman, a noble and romantic lover with a heart of gold, and a brave soldier, struggling against fortune throughout his life because of his oversize nose; and the good-looking young officer Christian, equally brave and romantic, but totally unable to express his feelings in persuasive and charming words. Both men are in love with the beautiful Roxane.

Somehow they combine their best qualities − Cyrano's poetic fluency and Christian's handsome looks − to win her heart. A drama full of action from beginning to end.

Sword-play in a theatre, a cake-shop romance, a famous balcony love-scene, and the horrific violence of battle. Love, treachery, comedy, courage and loyalty all bound up together in this landmark stage play.

The greatest love story ever told! It far outshines the famous and heart-breaking romance Romeo and Juliet, and it might indeed be called the most brilliant and unforgettable tragi-comedy ever written!Published by First Servant Books. .
