“Cyrano shows us that the mind is a formidable weapon and a survival kit”

Everyone is looking for their cyrano! While in Comedy -French the latest production of Rostand’s play is played with Nicolas Chupin, who – after Laurent Laffite – plays Cyrano, the actor Édouard Baer seizes the role for the first time. With Anne Kessler, at the staging, they imagined a more intimate scientist with a nose … a little less long. We met them during a break at the bar of the Antoine theater between two rehearsals, shortly before the first, January 28.

Le Figaro. – Another Cyrano ? And it is far from the last. How should we consider this ?

Curiord BAER. – I think we tried to pretend that it was the only one, it is not by pretension but otherwise, it is too bulky. You have to play Cyrano As if it had never been mounted, and at the same time, it is a piece that many people have in their memory or in their hearts, with expectations and they should not be disappointed. Cyranoit’s a nose, swords and anthology sentences
