'Cyrano – a contemporary adaptation of Edmond Rostand’s 1897 play Cyrano de Bergerac playing at the Melbourne Theatre Company – is another tour de force from Virginia Gay that tempts us with a romantic, all-consuming love fired by intellectual and creative connection. It is clever, witty, challenging, funny, touching and thought-provoking. It’s like a great first date – you get caught up talking and don’t even notice until the place starts closing around you.' (Introduction)
