Cyrano is the most interesting person in any room – a wordsmith, a charmer. She works twice as hard and runs twice as fast as the pretty boys, because she's deeply ashamed of something about herself. Enter Roxanne: brilliant and beautiful, with a penchant for poetry and a way with words, just like Cyrano. But Roxanne only has eyes for Yan: hot, manly Yan, who is dumbstruck around Roxanne. (Probably shy, right?) Until suddenly he starts saying the most amazing things. But it's not Yan writing these perfect love scenes, it's Cyrano... A joyous, gender-flipped retelling of Edmond Rostand's classic play, Cyrano is a love letter to hope; to language and desire; to the lo-fi magic of theatre. This big-hearted, irreverent queer-as-hell rom-com was first performed by Melbourne Theatre Company in 2022. A new production, directed by Clare Watson and produced by Roast Productions, was a hit at the Traverse Theatre during the 2024 Edinburgh Festival Fringe, winning a Fringe First Award, before transferring to Park Theatre, London.Show book
This audiobook is narrated by an AI Voice. A brutal coming-of-age Western set in blood, dust, and redemption. The Boy follows a young Black gunman forged by tragedy and raised by an outlaw prospector in a violent American frontier where justice is paid for in gunfire, silence, and consequence. When the boy’s father—feared across the territory as the man who could outdraw any living soul—is murdered and left without dignity, the boy swears revenge. Guided only by harsh lessons, instinct, and the code of the dying West, he grows into a quiet storm: patient, disciplined, and lethal. But revenge is never simple, and the trail forces him to confront more than his father’s killer. Along the way he finds love, betrayal, cruelty, unexpected mercy, and the terrifying truth that a man must decide whether violence defines him—or frees him. Dark, poetic, and cinematic, The Boy blends Western grit with emotional depth and cultural legacy. It explores the cost of survival, the burden of history, and the myth of the gunfighter through a voice both intimate and unforgiving. For listeners who enjoy Cormac McCarthy, Sergio Leone stylings, or stories rooted in justice, rage, and resilience, this is a Western that doesn’t just aim—it hits.Show book
