Sport For Jove Theatre Company's next production is an exciting return season of 'Cyrano de Bergerac'; winner of the 2013 Sydney Theatre Award for the Best Independent Production, Director and Actor.
For this return season, Damien Ryan will be performing in the title role of Cyrano de Bergerac.
'Cyrano de Bergerac' is one of the world’s most original and finely crafted romantic comedies; the tale of the beautiful Roxane and the man who would love her, but for his outrageous nose – the play that brought the word ‘panache’ into the English language! Cyrano is a complete theatrical masterpiece.

What is love and how do we get past its clichés and false ideals? How does self-esteem define us all our lives? What is beauty? What drives male aggression? What is courage?
'Cyrano de Bergerac' will be touring to the Canberra Theatre Centre and Illawarra Performing Arts Centre in addition to its two week run at the Seymour Centre.
