Mula sa Buwan is inspired by the classic play Cyrano de Bergerac. Set in 1940s Manila on the brink of World War II, the play tells the story of poet-cadet Cyrano, who is secretly in love with his old friend Roxane.

Because of his insecurity over his big nose, Cyrano hides his feelings for Roxane, who in turn develops feelings for a new cadet, Christian.

The play stars newlyweds Myke Salomon and Gab Pangilinan as Cyrano and Roxane, respectively, with Markki Stroem as Christian. Phi Palmos, MC dela Cruz, Jon Abella, and Jilian Ita-as play supporting roles. – Rappler.com
