Just named the #1 Best Live Theater Venue in 2026 by&nbsp;(201) Magazine, Bergen County Players (BCP) invites the public to go beyond the footlights for a day of live performances, interactive workshops, and the highly anticipated reveal of their next season.
A Musical Homecoming: 35 Years of Hits The afternoon’s centerpieces are two Mainstage Concerts at 12:00 PM and 3:00 PM. In a rare theatrical event, original BCP performers from the past three decades return to the stage to reprise powerhouse songs from the shows that have help defined the company’s history.
Lore and Legends: Guided Backstage Tours Rolling tours will depart from the lounge throughout the day. Led by BCP veterans, these guided journeys explore the building’s storied past—from its origin as a functional firehouse to its modern evolution—complete with creative secrets and a few legendary ghost stories.
The “Backstage Pass” Experience Visitors can participate in a Scavenger Hunt through the theater’s hidden corners—including the wardrobe room, lighting booth, and set shop. Participants who complete the challenge will be entered to win a raffle for tickets to the upcoming 2026-27 season. Interactive stations include:
<ul><li>The Costume Alcove:&nbsp;A "step and repeat" photo op featuring authentic Broadway-style wardrobe pieces.</li><li>Masterclasses:&nbsp;Short sessions on audition techniques, set design, and choreography.</li><li>Improv 101:&nbsp;Fast-paced theater games for all ages.</li></ul>
The Big Reveal &amp; Insider Perks The day culminates at 3:30 PM with the&nbsp;2026-2027 Season Launch, where BCP will officially unveil its next lineup of blockbusters, comedies, and dramas.
Throughout the day, the BCP Lounge will offer complimentary refreshments and a Sparkling Cider Toast. Guests can also access a “Today Only” Box Office discount for the current season’s final hits,&nbsp;The 39 Steps&nbsp;and&nbsp;Kodachrome.
Nearly a Century of Center Stage Founded in 1932, Bergen County Players is one of the most prestigious community theater groups in the nation. For over 90 years, BCP has served as a creative bedrock for North Jersey, providing award-winning entertainment and a home for local artists.
