Cyrano

About the show

Cyrano loves Roxane but believes she cannot love him because of his large nose. Roxane loves Christian, a handsome but inarticulate soldier. Cyrano writes letters to Roxane in Christian’s name and speaks for him beneath her balcony, enabling Christian to win her. During the siege of Arras, Roxane tells Christian she would love him even if he were ugly. Christian realizes she loves Cyrano’s words and asks him to reveal the truth, but dies before he can do so. Fifteen years later, Roxane recognizes Cyrano as the author of the letters as he dies in her arms.
