Being a fan of the movie but not knowing much about the musical‚ I was not sure what to expect. However‚ the show was a huge success‚ and it definitely has earned a place as one of my favorite musicals of all time. This musical was very dance heavy‚ and the dancing was not by any means easy. This was impressive enough in of itself. Even more impressive‚ though‚ from a vocal

The first moment of theatre I chose to stage is when Cyrano and Christian went to go see Roxane in the middle of the night.This scene prior to this moment was very important. Roxane and Christian sits outdoors and Roxanne ask Christian to tell her how much he loves her and he tries‚ but all he can say is “I love you” “I love you very much” and Roxanne gets infuriated and went inside the house.

Circling her torch around the room‚ Connie zoomed her phone onto the furniture and then scouted the floor. “Look‚ loads of Doctors or surgeons or something have left scrubs and masks

Nevertheless‚ Feinberg argues that “the prequisite to self-fulfillment is a certain amount of clear-eyed‚ non deluded self-love
