‘Cyrano de Bergerac’ at Festival Theater with Box Supper
Includes
a wonderful box supper by Cucina/2MayToz that will be waiting for you at Austin
Gardens. The Club will have a section blocked off for our
members and friends.
PLEASE BRING YOUR OWN LAWN CHAIRS!
Cyrano de Bergerac is a timeless tale of
courage, honor and unrequited love. Featuring Artistic Director Jack
Hickey as Cyrano, France's greatest warrior and poet, who is in love
with the beautiful Roxanne. Cyrano's legendarily large nose, however,
causes him to doubt that he could ever win her love, leading him to
court her by proxy, through the handsome yet vapid Christian. Cyrano is
a beautiful, funny and touching story filled with swordfights, romance,
and laughter; and brimming with Rostand's beautiful poetry.
