BCP TO BROADWAY...  AND BACK AGAIN

To help cap off our spectacular 75th Diamond Jubilee anniversary season, we are pleased to present a special ONE NIGHT ONLY benefit performance of the play Love Letters, starring Broadway stars Beth Fowler and Philip Bosco, under the direction of Broadway director Robert Jess Roth!  This special benefit performance will take place on Sunday, May 18th at 7:30 PM.

Beth Fowler, a BCP alumna, is a two-time Tony Award nominee (Sweeney Todd and The Boy from Oz) and originated the role of Mrs. Potts in Broadway's Beauty and the Beast.  Bergen County resident Philip Bosco is one of  Broadway's most distinguished actors, having been nominated for six Tony Awards, and winning one for 1989's Lend Me a Tenor.  He can currently be seen in FX's hit series, Damages.  Director Robert Jess Roth, another BCP alumna, was a Tony nominee for Beauty and the Beast and directed the world premiere of Lestat, Broadway's musical based on one of Anne Rice's most celebrated literary characters.












Love Letters is a reading of letters exchanged over a lifetime between two people who grow up together, go their separate ways, but continue to share confidences. Andrew Makepeace Ladd III and Melissa Gardner, both born to wealth and position, are childhood friends whose lifelong correspondence begins with birthday party thank-you notes and summer camp postcards. Romantically attached, they continue to exchange letters throughout their lives. As the actors read the letters aloud, what is created is an evocative, touching, frequently funny but always poignant portrait of two star-crossed lovers.

Designed as a special benefit event for BCP to raise funds for capital improvements, these three Broadway veterans will remain afterwards for a Q&A with the audience.  Included in the ticket price will be a special wine and cheese reception in our newly refurbished lounge where audience members can mingle with the artists in person!

The price for this truly unique theatrical evening is $75 per person, in honor of BCP's 75th Anniversary.  All seating is reserved. Tickets go on sale on to the general public starting on April 14, 2008. 

This spectacular evening is NOT TO BE MISSED, so please alert everyone you know about it.  Seats will go fast, so order early!!!
