Meet the sharpest tongue in Miami.
In this bold, hilarious reinvention of Cyrano de Bergerac, Sylvia is a brilliant Miami librarian with a lethal tongue, a body everyone notices but no one truly sees, and a secret: she is hopelessly in love with her best friend. When he falls for Sylviaโs beautiful new coworker, Sylvia agrees to write the love letters that will win his heart, giving another woman the words she cannot bring herself to speak.
Written by beloved Miami native Carmen Pelaez, in her fifth work with Miami New Drama, The Great Behind is a sexy, wildly funny, and deeply romantic new comedy about beauty, desire, and the terrifying courage it takes to be truly seen. How long can you give someone your words before you lose your own?
A Miami Cyrano. Same Wit. Bigger Hips.
