About the show. . 

Witty but acerbic theater critic Sheridan Whiteside arrives in a small town of Ohio just before the Christmas holiday and immediately breaks his leg. Forced to recover at the residence of a rich factory owner Ernest W. Stanley and his family, the high-maintenance "diva" of a host of a national radio program begins to wreak havoc in this 1939 classic.

Various Bergen County residents are a part of this production. Bunny Mateosian of Closter directs. She has directed many shows in her 30-plus years with the Bergen County Players including The Mousetrap, Postmortem, The Guys and The Most Ridiculous Thing You Ever Hoid.

She has also delighted audiences with her performances in The Full Monty, The Women, Lost In Yonkers, and The Beauty Queen of Leenane, for which she won the 2004 Perry Award for Outstanding Supporting Actress.

Sheridan Whiteside is played by James Lesko of Englewood. James has numerous credits with BCP including last season’s The Cocktail Hour, as well as Pack of Lies, The Most Ridiculous Thing You Ever Hoid and Whodunnit, for which he received a Perry Award Nomination.

The eccentric cast of characters subjected to Whiteside’s off-the-wall antics are played by a talented band of actors including: Shari Buchwald (Haworth), Penny Kaspar (Ridgewood), Paul Reinauer III (Demarest), Ariela Nazar-Rosen (New City, NY), Larry Braverman (Westwood), Andrea Pieper (New Milford), Michele Roth (New Milford), Kathie Robitz (Westwood), Howell Mayer (Saddle Brook), Victoria Edwards (Saddle Brook), Sheldon Stone (Totowa), Margie Druss Fodor (Westwood), and James Parent (Dumont), Howard Kerner (Teaneck), Jim Kelly (Park Ridge), Peter Colletto (Leonia), Robin Schultz (Englewood), David Storicks (Dumont), Bill Cantor (Woodcliff Lake), Pat Bain (Englewood), Laura Bateman (New Milford), Victoria Buchner (Hawthorne), Marisa Dolkart (Dumont), Katie Lupfer (Tenafly), and Rob Kopil (Suffern, NY).
