His plays brought to life captivating stories that continue to enchant audiences even today. One of his most notable collaborations was with Sarah Bernhardt, the legendary French stage actress.

In 1910, Rostand introduced us to the whimsical characters from his play "Chantecler. " This imaginative tale transported us into a world where animals could speak and dream. It was yet another testament to Rostand's ability to captivate our imagination. However, it is perhaps Cyrano de Bergerac that truly solidified Rostand's place in literary history. The iconic character became synonymous with bravery and unrequited love. Constant Coquelin brilliantly portrayed Cyrano on stage, immortalizing both himself and Rostand's masterpiece. The illustrations from Cyrano de Bergerac's novel "The Other World" further enhanced its allure. They painted vivid pictures of adventure and romance within readers' minds.
