A new version of the classic French romantic comedy from Peter Oswald. Cursed with the looks of a clown, he weaves his secret longing into love letters of exquisite beauty that he will never dare to send. All he needs is a perfect nose to match his perfect prose. The handsome Christian has also fallen for Roxane but while he looks like a god, he sounds like a fool. Sacrificing physical love for fantasy, Cyrano hands his words of love to Christian to speak for them both. Will Roxane fall for the perfect man Can Cyrano exist with only half her heart Is true love more than skin deep
Peter Oswald is a poet and playwright who was, for three years, writer in residence at Shakespeare's Globe.
