Description
A 19th-century French play about a swordsman-poet with a distinctive feature that sets him apart. This translation by Anthony Burgess was first performed at the Barbican Theatre, London in 1983, and has since been used for film adaptations. The story of Cyrano de Bergerac is one of wit, poetry, and loyalty, as the titular character navigates love, friendship, and his own identity. With its themes of self-acceptance and the power of words, this play remains a compelling read today. First performed by the Royal Shakespeare Company in 1983, this edition features Burgess's acclaimed English translation.
