Students from Performing Arts Studio Scotland at Edinburgh College will take to the stage at the iconic Traverse Theatre on 25–26 March, presenting two brand-new world premiere productions by Scottish writers: Cyrana and Roll With It. These ambitious new works showcase the next generation of Scottish theatre makers, bringing bold new voices and stories to one of Scotland’s most celebrated new-writing stages.
CYRANA
World Premiere, freely adapted and directed by Clara Bloomfield
Inspired by Cyrano de Bergerac by Edmond Rostand
“A fight for love. A battle for truth. A voice all her own.“
Cyrana is a fierce voice in Scotland’s arts scene: sharp-tongued, brilliant, unafraid to speak her mind. Beneath the fire lies loneliness, pride, and longing in a world that rarely sees her true self. When love and ambition collide, loyalty and betrayal blur.
Within a world of sharp words, fierce loyalties, and restless hearts, Cyrana explores identity, voice, and the cost of silence.
A bold reimagining of a classic tale, it tells of the fight to be heard, and the courage to stand tall when the world tries to silence you.
