Don’t miss Levi Brown in the RSC’s ‘Cyrano de Bergerac’

‘No master to serve, no leash to bear. I walk as I please, and I speak as I dare.’

Poet, soldier and philosopher. Cyrano de Bergerac burns with brilliance. He’s fiercely funny and intensely romantic – but behind the veil of wit is one large problem: his nose.

Haunted by doubts and too proud to beg, he watches from the shadows as Roxane – bold, beautiful and seemingly unreachable – falls for another man, Christian. But this handsome, tongue-tied young suitor knows his only hope of charming Roxane is to seduce her with words. And only one person can help…

Olivier Award-winning actor Adrian Lester is Cyrano. Director Simon Evans co-adapts with Debris Stevenson, bringing new life to this thrilling, lyrical tale of love and lies, longing and disguise.

Don’t miss L&C’s brilliant Levi Brown making his RSC debut as Christian de Neuvilette in ‘Cyrano de Bergerac’ at the Swan Theatre, Stratford-upon-Avon until 15 November.
