Cyrano De Bergerac

I got free tickets from a friend to see Cyrano the day before it closed. I never knew that this play is what Roxanne is based off of. I went in literally knowing nothing about the story. It was a little slow, taking nearly an hour to get to anything good about the show. Cyrano is a poet and is in love with his cousin Roxanne. However, a young boy named Christian also loves Roxanne and he's gorgeous. Cyrano, afraid that he looks awful because of his enormous nose, woos Roxanne while playing as Christian so that at least one of them can have happiness.

 We sat in the rear of the orchestra and the seats were perfect. I notice that whenever I see a show at the American Airlines theater, I'm one of the youngest patrons in attendance. Roundabout should work on that.

Douglas Hodge was great and Clemence Poesy was fun to watch on stage. It's nice to know that Harry Potter isn't the only thing she can do.
