In 17th-century Paris, celebrated poet Cyrano de Bergerac dazzles crowds with his brilliant wit and expert swordplay. However, while he longs for the affection of his childhood friend Roxanne, he is too insecure to make his true feelings known.

Peter Dinklage delivers a charismatic lead performance in this irresistible musical romance from British director Joe Wight (Pride and Prejudice, Atonement).

We open the cinema and box office 30 minutes before the scheduled start time of each film, and the Box Office then closes 10 minutes after the film starts. We don’t show adverts, just a couple of trailers, so don't be late as the film itself starts very close to the advertised time!
