Mini Review of Cyrano de Bergerac, Greek National Theatre, Athens

I was very impressed with this production which struck me as far more visually creative and inventive than many I've seen in the UK. Using the costumes and players as the set pretty much all the way through was very effective.

It was also good that they didn't use swords which they had to be a lot more inventive in the fight scenes.

Just two gripes really.

For some reason Cyrano acquired a Mother, it sort of look like the reason might be to give the woman who played the mother a part.

Roxanne play with her boobs whenever she wanted to show she felt passionate about something, a little too much, even for me.
