Cyrano de Bergerac Revisted


Pa takes the Monday through Friday editions of the New York Times, and saves the arts section for me. In it I read a positive review of a new Roundabout Theater production of Cyrano de Bergerac, and of course wanted to take that trip down memory lane. It was also a good opportunity for Adam to see the classic play and imagine his much-younger-than-now mother up on the stage playing the clever, beautiful, if blind-to-the-obvious Roxanne (college production at the Power Center in Ann Arbor, 1974).

It did not disappoint. Douglas Hodges was wonderful in the title role; the actress who played Roxanne also played Fleur Delacour in the Harry Potter films.
