Cyrano de Bergerac

Edmond Rostand’s heroic comedy of the swordsman-poet Cyrano, whose courage and wit are matched only by the size of his nose, and who secretly woos his cousin Roxane on behalf of the handsome cadet Christian. It was first performed in Paris in 1897. This edition follows the public-domain English translation by Gladys Thomas and Mary F. Guillemard (1898).
