It’s hard to believe, but in 75 seasons this classic has never been produced at BCP! Winner of five 1952 Tony Awards, including Best Musical, the score features Rodgers and Hammerstein at their best, including such favorites as “Getting to Know You”, “Hello,Young Lovers” and of course “Shall We Dance?”. In a decade of incredible musicals, The King and I remains unsurpassed in its use of music and dance, contributing to its enduring appeal and popularity. Featuring local schoolchildren in the ensemble.

How lucky are we to find a Tony Award winning Best Play that opened in one decade and successfully ran through the next one, especially one that was so popular on our stage in the past? Nominated for seven 1989 Tonys and six Drama Desk Awards (and winner of four), this riotous comedy featuring mistaken identities, swinging doors and precise timing had The New York Times calling it “an impeccable example of how to construct and mount a farce…”.

Sure to be enjoyed by children and adults alike, the current decade is well represented by this delightful musical version of Dr. Seuss’s heartwarming world. Watch your children (or grandchildren) become captivated by some of Dr. Seuss’s most beloved characters, live on stage: the Cat in the Hat, Horton the Elephant, The Grinch and Yertle the Turtle, just to name a few. And as we celebrate the holiday season, it’s good to remember: “a person’s a person, no matter how small…”

Think of a Depression-era “Sex in the City” in which a group of self-absorbed Manhattan socialites offer up a menu of their lives: gossip, motherhood, infidelity and divorce. Add in a mixture of betrayal, lies, deception and innuendo and you end up with what The New York Times in 1936 called “a kettle of venom.” Featuring an all-female cast portraying more than 40 characters, this humorous yet biting satire was years ahead of its time and ran for a then-record 657 Broadway performances.

Written by Israel Horowitz

What better way to celebrate our longevity than by presenting Off-Off- Broadway’s current longest-running production? Now in its 32nd year, this simple yet thoughtful play features five characters that fight each other as they compete for the coveted place of "front of the line." What are these people waiting for? This question does not seem as important as what they will do to get to the front. "A perfectly drawn line," wrote Walter Kerr of The New York Times.

Opening on Broadway just two days before the attack on Pearl Harbor, this amazing psychological thriller went on to run for more than three years before being turned into the classic film Gaslight starring Ingrid Bergman and Charles Boyer.

Packed with bigamy, madness, treachery, lechery, captivity, hidden treasure and an elusive killer poised to strike again, Angel Street poses the question: is the woman going crazy like her mother before her, or is the husband trying to drive his wife mad?

Some of theater's most memorable characters (Nurse Ratched, R.P. McMurphy, Billy Bibbitt, The Chief) provide intense drama, rollicking laughs and despairing poignancy in an unforgettable setting. Because this powerful exploration of the beauty and danger of being an original in a world that frowns on originality opened on Broadway just one week before President Kennedy's assassination...  in 1963, it never had a long run. But its impact as a film a decade later will never be forgotten. Contains mature content and language.

Crime is rampant. Pollution is everywhere. Nothing works. This two-act kvetch about the hazards and tribulations of living in New York City was nominated for Best Play of 1972 and was the winner of two Tony Awards. A perfect blend of black comedy and pathos, Simon's ode to city dwelling is like Death of a Salesman filtered through "All in the Family," and will have you laughing and gasping at the same time. A fantastic conclusion to our “Season for the Decades"!
