Customer Reviews

Sensational
I thought the play was wonderful. Kline and the rest of the cast were fabulous, I didn't think I would like it, but before I knew it 2 1/2 hours was over. My only complaint is that I found Jennifer Garner sort of obnoxious and overdone or something. I just couldn't see why any man let alone two men would fall so in love with here. But her rendition of Roxanne takes nothing away from the show. Highly recommend.

A TRULY FINE PERFORMANCE
I was fortunate enough to see Jose Ferrer recreate his movie Cyrano de Bergerac in the 70's, live in Nyack, NY and spoke to Mr. Ferrer afterwards. Although he was the Sean Connery, in James Bond movies, of Cyranos, I must say that Kevin Kline and Jennifer Garner did a wonderful job as well. Their performance was much funnier than the original screen version. Jennifer Garner was alive and vibrant, which was missing from all other renditions.

Incredible performance
One of the best performances I have ever seen. Wonderful story, but extremely sad at the end. I cannot express how highly I recommend this.
