Description

In a bustling 17th‑century Parisian theater, a gifted poet‑soldier with an unmistakable nose and a sharp tongue makes his entrance. Cyrano dazzles everyone with daring verses, fearless swordplay, and a fierce loyalty to his friends. Yet beneath his bravado lies a tender heart that longs for the affection of the beautiful Roxane, even as he fears his appearance will betray his feelings.

When the shy, handsome newcomer Christian arrives, he quickly wins Roxane’s admiration, prompting Cyrano to conceal his own love behind clever machinations. Their rivalry turns into a secret partnership, with Cyrano lending his poetic genius to help Christian woo the woman they both adore. The result is a sparkling blend of humor, romance, and heroic sacrifice that invites listeners to savor each lyrical duel and tender confession.
