Gifted with talents of both the pen and the sword, Cyrano de Bergerac almost has it all – all except for the heart of his beloved Roxane. Cyrano feels unworthy of her because of his unusually large nose. When Roxane shares with him that she has feelings for lovely, tongue-tied Christian, Cyrano pushes his jealousy aside to assist Christian in winning Roxane’s heart. But who is it that Roxane truly loves? Is it Christian, or the man whose words were used to woo her – Cyrano?
