The tale of the poet with the enormous proboscis, Cyrano de Bergerac, comes to Hampton’s town green on Saturday, 31 July, at 7 PM in a new production by Flock Theatre. Set at the time of the musketeers, Edmond Rostand’s romantic play concerns the great swordsman and poet Cyrano, the tongue-tied soldier Christian, and the beautiful and intelligent woman they both love, Roxanne. Cyrano and Christian strike a deal: together they will woo her, with Cyrano’s words and Christian’s good looks, until war sends both men to the battlefield. Flock Theatre’s production features a cast of dozens of actors, sword play, and plenty of romance. This is a rare opportunity to see a great play in the hands of one of the most adventurous theater troupes in New England.
