PCPA Theaterfest Stages CYRANO DE BERGERAC, Now thru 9/1
Cyrano de Bergerac is a master of all trades, maddeningly uncompromising and brilliantly accomplished - poet, warrior, and romantic.

When you've uncovered the courageous heart behind the nose, you'll fall in love under the stars in the Solvang Festival Theater August 17 through September 1. Revel in a rhapsody of words as pointed as rapiers in Rostand's poignant portrait of panache that goes beyond romantic pageantry.
