Hercule-Savinien de Cyrano de Bergerac was a French dramatist and duelist. He is now best remembered for the works of fiction which have been woven, often very loosely, around his life story, most notably the 1897 play by Edmond Rostand. In these fictional works he is featured with an overly large nose, which people would travel from miles around to see. Portraits suggest that he did have a big nose, though not nearly as large as described by Rostand.

Wonderfully written, when character counted. A charming, romantic, and adventurous play. It's easy to see why it's had such a long life.

cyrano de bergerac
Cyrano de Bergerac is a dramatic comedy set in 17th century France. The colorful play features Cyrano, an ugly poet in love with his beautiful cousin, Roxanne. Afraid to aspire to her hand, he finds an outlet for his passion in scripting the romance of her unimaginative, but handsome beau, with hilarious and poignant results. Filled with swashbuckling adventure, romance, and captivating poetry, Cyrano de Bergerac is a delightful and thought provoking classic.
