Cyrano | BACATS4
By Virginia Gay
Directed by Ann Blake
The final year class of the BA in Contemporary & Applied Theatre Studies at MIC is proud to present Cyrano, Virginia Gay’s joyous, gender-flipped retelling of Cyrano de Bergerac.
Directed by Ann Blake, Cyrano is a witty and aching romance, a love letter to hope, to language and desire, and to the magic of theatre.
Cyrano is the most interesting person in any room – a wordsmith, a charmer. She works twice as hard and runs twice as fast as the pretty boys, because she’s deeply ashamed of something about herself. Enter Roxanne: brilliant and beautiful, with a penchant for poetry and a way with words, just like Cyrano. But Roxanne only has eyes for Yan: hot, manly Yan; all brawn-and-no-brains Yan; who is dumbstruck around Roxanne. Probably shy, right? Until suddenly he starts saying the most amazing things. But it’s not Yan writing these perfect love scenes, it’s Cyrano …
With a cast of seven energetic tricksters, this is a love story not to be missed.
