Further cast for Cyrano de Bergerac in the West End revealed

Exclusive: Further casting has been revealed for the Royal Shakespeare Company’s production of Cyrano de Bergerac, which will transfer to the West End this summer.

The production is directed by Simon Evans, who has co-adapted Edmond Rostand’s play with Debris Stevenson, creating a new version of the text. It was heralded as “utterly exquisite” by critic Sarah Crompton during its initial season. It follows the poet, soldier and philosopher Cyrano de Bergerac, whose wit and eloquence contrast with his insecurity about his appearance.

As already revealed, Adrian Lester will reprise his role as Cyrano de Bergerac, with Susannah Fielding returning as Roxane. Joining them will be Levi Brown, who reprises his role as Christian, with Joseph Christain as Edmond, Sunny Chung as Sister Claire/Madame Jodolet, Philip Cumbus as Le Bret, Greer Dale-Foulkes as Abigail, Rachel Dawson as Ann-Sofie, Oliver Grant as Jean, Scott Handy as Comte de Guiche, David Mildon as Jodolet/Carbon, Matt Mordak as Valvert/Pierre, Daniel Norford as Louis, Chris Nayak as Monfleury/Bernard, Christian Patterson as Ragueneau and Josh Sneesby as Raphael. Robert Jackson joins the cast as Arnauld alongside Taiva Hove, Joshua Maduike and Elim Mapira, who will share the role of Small Boy.

The transfer is presented by Wessex Grove, Gavin Kalin Productions and the Royal Shakespeare Company, with the Noël Coward Theatre operated by Delfont Mackintosh Theatres.

The full creative team also includes set and costume designer Grace Smart, lighting designer Joshie Harriette, composer Alex Baranowski, sound designer Donato Wharton, movement director Sarita Piotrowski, fight and intimacy director Bethan Clark, dramaturg Rebecca Latham for the RSC, casting director Matthew Dewsbury for the RSC, music director Sneesby, voice and text coach Barbara Houseman, associate director Lydia McKinley, and children’s casting director Charlie Metcalf for the RSC.

Cy­rano de Bergerac runs at the Noël Coward Theatre from 13 June to 5 September 2026. Tickets are on sale now.
