Further casting is announced for the Royal Shakespeare Company’s critically acclaimed production of Cyrano de Bergerac by Edmond Rostand in a new version by Simon Evans and Debris Stevenson, directed by Simon Evans.
Poet, soldier and philosopher. Cyrano de Bergerac burns with brilliance. He’s fiercely funny and urgently 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…
Levi Brown reprises his role as Christian alongside the previously announced Adrian Lester as Cyrano and Susannah Fielding as Roxane.
The cast also includes Joseph Christain, Sunny Chung, Philip Cumbus, Rachel Dawson, Greer Dale-Foulkes, Oliver Grant, Scott Handy, Taiva Hove, Robert Jackson, Elim Mapira, Joshua Maduike, David Mildon, Matt Mordak, Chris Nayak, Daniel Norford, Christian Patterson and Josh Sneesby.
Noël Coward Theatre, 85-88 St Martin’s Lane, London, WC2N 4AU.
13 June – 5 September.
