Long considered one of America’s premier community theater groups, (BCP) is proud to announce for 2012-13 another ambitious, passionate and playful year of audience-pleasing musicals and innovative plays for its 80th consecutive season.

From toe-tapping musicals to hilarious comedies to intense dramas, BCP has garnered a reputation for outstanding quality productions at affordable prices. The new season kicks off with one of the most beloved musicals of all time, The Music Man. Winner of eight Tony Awards, including Best Musical, BCP’s 80th season opener will feature a live orchestra and a cast of over 35.

The Music Man revolves around Harold Hill, a traveling salesman and con man who stops in River City, Iowa and convinces the town that forming a boys’ brass band will solve all of their problems. Winner of six Tony Awards, this family favorite’s amazing score is worth the price of admission alone, including classics such as “76 Trombones”, “Trouble”, “Gary, Indiana”, “The Wells Fargo Wagon” and the romantic standard hit “Till There Was You”.
