SMARTY PANTS
by Shelley Hoffman and Stephen Sparks
A comedy caper about middle-aged friendship and how to make friends with your ex!
Linda's two oldest friends, Trudy and Gail, are worried about her. Ever since her ex-husband, Rob, has become a tech millionaire...well...she's been a serious grump. So they've hatched a plan: break into his cottage and retrieve a gift she feels he ought to have returned when they broke up.
That ought to bring their "old Linda" back, right? Well...
The caper goes off the rails when instead of finding the small Rodin hand sculpture, Linda, discovers a well-stocked wine cooler. Then Rob makes a surprise entrance, interrupting an impromptu pajama party and all hell breaks loose!

KARAOKE DREAMER
by Robert More
Join us for this rocking, fun-filled Musical for all ages! It's a party from start to finish with an eclectic song list guaranteed to please even the most finicky music lover.
As the story unfolds we meet and get to know three young wannabe stars from different backgrounds as they perform and compete on Karaoke Canada for the chance to win a recording contract. Guided by the ever-charming and clever MC of the show, the three performers try to overcome personal challenges and demons as they perform different hit songs tanging from Leonard Cohen's Hallelujah all the way to What's Love Got To Do With It by Tina Turner - all in the hopes of becoming the next big star! Who will win?
Join us to find out!

TOTS AND TODDLERS - A FAMILY SING-A-LONG!
Artist Bio/Profile
Nyanna's 10 years experience as a teacher at Richmond Hill's prestigious Kinderschool Adlerian Nursery School gives her a unique perspective. To know what children respond to best, Nyanna uses a theory she likes to call KID TESTING - writing for kids by singing to them...every day. Her first CD "I K.A.N. Sing" combined original with traditional compositions, then by popular request she wrote an all original compilation called "Seasons and Celebrations". Using simple, effective Adlerian methods she creates engaging songs enjoyed by children and their parent alike!

THE KITCHEN WITCHES
by Caroline Smith
BCP is ending their season back where they began! Caroline Smith's hilarious comedy was BCP's very first production and they are bringing it back to celebrate 10 years of summer theatre!
Isobel Lomax and Dolly Biddle are two "mature" cable-access cooking show hostesses, who have hated each other for over thirty years, ever since Larry Biddle dated one and married the other. When circumstances put them together on a TV show called, "The Kitchen Witches", the insults are flung harder than the food! Dolly's long-suffering TV-producer son, Stephen, tries to keep them on track, but as long as Dolly's dressing room is one inch closer to the set than Isobel's, it's a losing battle, and the show becomes a ratings smash as Dolly and Isobel top both Martha Stewart and Jerry Springer!
