Cyrano De Bergerac NY tickets are not just tickets to see a play about two ill-fated lovers- it is possibly one of the most touching and tragic plays to ever hit the stage. Originally written in 1897 in French, it continues to be a hit even today, and is often revived in many television shows and teen movies.
A Tale of True Love
Perhaps, one of the reasons why Cyrano De Bergerac NY tickets are so in demand is because, the character of Cyrano is such a heart-wrenching one, skillfully drawn and portrayed on the stage by some of the world's finest actors. Cyrano serves in the French army as a cadet and though he is a talented fighter and poet, he has a large nose. This makes him feel inferior to the task of telling any woman his feelings, much less the beautiful Roxane. When he finds out that his friend Christian and Roxane have feelings for each other, Cyrano swallows his sorrow and does his best to bring the lovers together. While Christian has the looks, Cyrano supplies the words and as a result, Roxane and Christian fall madly in love.
One of the greatest attractions of Cyrano De Bergerac NY tickets is the famous balcony scene, where Cyrano expounds his love for Roxane and she listens, believing it to be Christian. Bad times soon befall the couple, when the regiment is sent on suicide missions and are plagued by famine. The only thing that keeps Cyrano alive is his heated and passionate letters that he sends to Roxane, under the name of Christian. These move Roxane so much that she finds them and tells Christian that she loves him for his soul and nothing else. Christian begs Cyrano to tell Roxane the truth, but before he can, Christian dies and Cyrano is too loyal and proud to say anything.
Cyrano soon falls on bad times, since he refuses to accept aid from anyone. Roxane hides herself in a cloister and is visited by Cyrano periodically. Roxane soon discovers the truth, but by then it is too late and Cyrano succumbs to war injuries in his lover's arms.
A Broadway Favorite
Cyrano De Bergerac NY tickets have been a staple of Broadway for many years. In 1923, the play ran on Broadway for an astounding 232 shows.
