Edmond Rostand

Don Juan's sexual conquests have gained him an infamous reputation all over Europe. When the Devil himself begins to drag him to Hell, Don Juan makes a bargain: In exchange for another ten years of life, he will commit to doing the Devil's dark work himself by bedding as many women as possible and leaving them wanting and devastated. A decade later, the Devil catches up with Don Juan in Venice. Through a dizzying melange of puppetry, riddles and mysterious women clad in masks and cloaks, the Devil shows Don Juan that though he believed he was a master at playing romantic and sexual games, in truth he was but a plaything. This translation of one of Rostand's final works is, like the French original, written completely in rhymed couplets.

A genius with language, but convinced of his own ugliness, Cyrano secretly loves the radiant Roxane. While Roxane is in love with the beautiful but inarticulate Christian. Cyrano's generous offer to act as go-between sets in motion a poignant and often hilarious love-triangle, in which each character is torn between the lure of physical attraction and the seductive power of words. Martin Crimp's adaptation of Edmond Rostand's Cyrano de Bergerac premiered at the Playhouse Theatre, London, in November 2019.

Cyrano de Bergerac is an immersive play formulated by Edmond Rostand. It was primarily produced in 1897 and printed in 1898. The play tells the story of a French chevalier of the 17th century who was known for his adventurous life and immense nose. The following Cyrano de Bergerac summary outlines the five acts of the play. The curtain rises to indicate the inside scenes of a theater. The diverse viewer is present, expecting the play to begin, and their discussion informs us (wrongly) that this is the renowned theatre in which Corneille's Le Cid was established. The play tonight is Baro's Clorise, and its leading actor is Mont Fleury. The classical tradition of French drama was formalized in the seventeenth century. Victor Hugo broke the restrictive chains of French classicism with his "Preface" to Cromwell. Cyrano de Bergerac is considered a complete romantic drama, but it did not truly revive this school nor continue it. Cyrano seems to be an outcome of medieval French literature - the songs of the troubadours. Cyrano de Bergerac combines these two genres in their fundamental kind and story. This can also be examined as a virtuoso play, written to tap the talents of one actor.
