Marking a return to live theater after a 20-month hiatus, Bergen County Players (BCP), one of America’s longest-running little theater companies, is thrilled to announce that its doors will reopen with arousing musical revue.
Under the direction of Alan Demovsky, musical direction by Steven Bell, and choreography by Steve Dougherty, this two-time Tony Award-nominated show features the quintessential work of Rodgers & Hammerstein and "includes some of the best musical theater songs ever written; it's hard to resist!" (Variety).
Many of the most beloved, uplifting, and romantic songs in musical theater history have one thing in common: the incomparable team of Richard Rodgers and Oscar Hammerstein II. Over three decades after the duo's final collaboration, The Sound of Music, took Broadway by storm, A GRAND NIGHT FOR SINGING opened the 1994 Broadway season with flair and distinction, garnering wildly enthusiastic notices and earning two Tony nominations, including Best Musical. With lyrics by Oscar Hammerstein II, music by Richard Rodgers, and conceived by Walter Bobbie, the musical revue celebrates over 30 hit songs from all of R&H’s musical treasures like Oklahoma!, South Pacific, The Sound of Music, Carousel, The King and I, Cinderella and more. Audiences will be tapping their toes and humming along in a joyful evening filled with fresh takes on the music everyone loves.
The talented cast includes veteran performers Larry Brustofski of Oakland, Elisabeth Erdmann of Nutley, Nancy Feldman of New City, NY, Sarah Friedman of Paramus, Katrina Michalewski of Bloomingdale, Robert Quiles of Dumont, Edward Van Saders of Sparkill, NY, and Cheryl Woertz of Alpine.
