Seven Days Says:

Aquila Theatre Company presents the romantic adventures of a swordsman whose famously huge nose complicates his pursuit of Roxanne, whom he admires from afar.

In the Eye of the Beholder

Edmond Rostand 's Cyrano de Bergerac received critical acclaim upon its 1897 stage debut and later became one of the most famous French plays of its time. Cursed with an unusually large nose, but blessed with a gift for the written word, the swordsman Cyrano assumes the alias of a handsome man and pens love letters to the beautiful Roxanne — drama and hilarity unfold as he delivers them. Having rehearsed the production during a recent residency at the Spruce Peak Performing Arts Center, the Aquila Theatre Company returns to reinterpret this classic tale of love and adventure for contemporary audiences.
