James McAvoy's Cyrano de Bergerac co-stars 'racially abused' in Glasgow
James Mcavoy 's co-stars in Cyrano de Bergerac were racially abused on a " daily basis" while The Play was On Tour in Glasgow, The Actor has claimed.
The Star , who was born in The City 's Drumchapel area, said the harassment experienced by female cast members left him " delighted to leave" his Home Town .
He told, The Experience was " horrible" and he regretted taking the production to Scotland.
The two-week run at Glasgow's Theatre Royal in March was a sell-out.
McAvoy said that instead of a " homecoming" the performances were marred by the " sexually explicit and violent" abuse his colleagues experienced beyond The Theatre .
" The Cast were amazing, it was brilliant, " He Said . " But I was really saddened, to be honest With You , because most of The Women of colour in The Cast got racially abused pretty much on a daily basis when we were there. "
He added: " I was just really saddened. I was absolutely shocked and dismayed and to use a Scottish word, scunnered.
" We were delighted to get to Brooklyn, and leave Glasgow. It was horrible. "
The adaptation of Edmond Rostand 's Cyrano de Bergerac had an award-winning run in London before travelling to Glasgow And Then on to New York .

Regarding the staging in Glasgow, McAvoy said: " I was going On Stage every night going, I don't want us to be here. I brought this cast here and I don't want to be here. "
A spokeswoman for the Theatre Royal said they were " extremely upset" by the incidents which happened elsewhere in Glasgow City centre.
She added: " Diversity and inclusion remain a priority for us and we offered appropriate support to The Company at The Time . "
