Musical rerun
First staged in 2022 by Barefoot Theatre Collaborative, the award-winning musical narrates the heartbreaking love story of a soldier-poet named Cyrano and his beloved Roxane, and a kind-hearted Christian set in 1940s Manila.
The musical tackles the plot of unrequited love, genuine friendships, and the relentless battle for survival in a field of rubble caused by war.
The Filipino musical is based on Soc Rodrigo’s Filipino translation of Edmond Rostand’s classic “Cyrano de Bergerac.”
Created by Pat Valera and William Elvin Manzano in 2012, the musical was previously staged at the GSIS Theater (2011), Irwin Theater (2016 and 2017), and Hyundai Hall (2018).
The show also held its limited online screening last year from April 7 to 9.
