"Cyrano of Bergerac"

"Cyrano of Bergerac" Starring David Serero

Cyrano is a cadet in the French Army -- a brash, strong-willed man, a remarkable duelist, a gifted, joyful poet and musician. However, he has an extremely large nose, which causes him to doubt himself. This doubt prevents him from expressing his love for his distant cousin, the beautiful and intellectual Roxane, as he believes that his ugliness would prevent him the "dream of being loved by even an ugly woman." This well-known French classic will be performed in English, featuring Sephardi and jazz standards for a world premiere adaptation. Enjoy "Cyrano of Bergerac", starring David Serero, at New York City's Center for Jewish History.
