Cyrano On Broadway: In-Klined To Garner Success?
Cyrano On Broadway: In-Klined To Garner Success?According to Michael Riedel of the New York Post, Kevin Kline appears to be inclined to take on one of the greatest romantic comedy roles of all time: Cyrano de Bergerac.
Riedel reports that David Leveaux would helm the 12th Broadway revival of Edmond Rostand's classic play about the guy with the unusually large nose.
Perhaps most noteworthy in Riedel's report is that Mrs. Ben Affleck (Jennifer Garner) might "return" to the Great White Way as Roxanne -- she previously served as an understudy to Patricia T. A. Ageheim in 1995's A Month In The Country.
Perhaps this is what Alan Ayckbourn meant? And if she's ready to tread the boards, can her hubby be far behind?

Post Script: Kevin Kline and Jennifer Garner have been confirmed for a "strictly limited 10-week engagement" opening November 1 at the Richard Rodgers Theatre.
The best news in the announcement was that Daniel Sunjata will return to the Broadway stage. He was last seen -- and I mean all of him was seen -- in the 2003 production of Take Me Out.
