Cyrano de Bergerac, a play by Edmond Rostand, is a classic work of French literature first performed in 1897. The play is a fictionalized account of the life of the real Cyrano de Bergerac, a 17th-century French playwright and duelist.
The real Cyrano de Bergerac is a novelist and playwright who lived from 1619 to 1655, around the same time as the fictional Cyrano. The real Cyrano probably inspired the idea for Rostand’s protagonist, but the play’s events, as well as its other characters, are solely the product of Rostand’s imagination.
