Bergen County Players Present “Rabbit Hole” at Little Firehouse Theatre in Oradell: February 8-March 1
The Bergen County Players will present the emotional play “Rabbit Hole” at the Little Firehouse Theatre in Oradell, February 8-March 1.
In the wake of a life-shattering accident, a young husband and wife struggle to stay connected, navigating their way through grief and the challenges that threaten to pull them apart. This powerful drama portrays their bittersweet search for comfort in the darkest moments and their quest to find a path back to each other and to hope.
This winner of the 2007 Pulitzer Prize for Drama charts their bittersweet search for comfort in the darkest of places and for a path that will lead them back up into the light of day. “The play doesn’t so much jerk tears as tap them, from a reservoir of feelings common to anyone who has experienced the landscape-shifting vacuum left by a death in the family.”
Performances take place at 8:00 pm on Fridays and Saturdays and at 2:00 pm on Sundays at the Little Firehouse Theatre, 298 Kinderkamack Road in Oradell, New Jersey.

First performed in Athens, Greece in 411 B.C., Lysistrata is a sharp-witted satire about one woman’s daring plan to end the Peloponnesian War—by rallying women to withhold intimacy from their lovers, sparking a battle of the sexes. Directed by Peter A. Campbell, Ph.D., this adaptation by Carolyn Balducci reimagines the story in a modern setting filled with palm trees and pool toys.
Note: This production contains adult language and situations. Viewer discretion is advised.
