About the show:
Cyrano is the king of the local Burger Shack, but he can’t seem to win the love of his best friend, Roxanne. When Roxanne confesses her crush on the new burger-flipper, Christian, Cyrano decides that playing Cupid is better than sitting out of the game. An updated, modern-day version of Edmond Rostand’s Cyrano de Bergerac, this rollicking musical features hit contemporary pop songs that will have audiences cheering.

Available Roles:
- Cyrano: Quick-witted, intense, and outwardly confident, Cyrano sports a famously enormous (prosthetic) nose. He uses his verbal skill to hide insecurities about how he looks.

- Roxanne: Brilliant, beautiful, and a champion fencer, Roxanne leads with her wit. That said, she is a romantic and believes in storybook love. Her friendship with Cyrano is strong and true, though she is oblivious to his affection for her.
 

- Christian: Handsome with a bright smile and an easygoing charm. Not the brightest star in the sky, but he has serious style and flair and amazing moves.
 

- DJ: The cashier. A snarky, wry emo gal with a palpable lack of customer service skills.
 

- Pickles: Fry-guy. Free spirit and schemer. Wears a hat.
 

- Wanda: Shake-master. Weird, wild, and wonderful. As treasurer of the Drama Club, Wanda is prone to dramatics.
 

- Dani, Chloe, & Zoe: Three girls on Roxanne’s fencing team. Rather tough ladies. Always together.
 

- Hot Todd: Roxanne’s haughty ex-boyfriend. Seriously, dude, she’s not into you. Let it go.
 

- Edmond High Girl’s Fencing Team: “Go Cadets…En Garde!” In a nod to the swashbuckling source material, the only sports team of note at Edmond High is the girls’ fencing team, led by their captain, Roxanne. Sporting mostly-white uniforms, these rockin’ women give the show bursts of unique choreographic energy.
 

- Doctor’s Assistant
 

- Ensemble: Various High School students, The Drama Club, Cheering Parents, etc.
