The Little Firehouse Theater Continues to Entertain

A Journey into Oradell
The iconic Hagler's building may be gone, but the Little Firehouse Theater and the old train station still bring a sense of history and architectural distinction to town in an age of standardization.
The Bergen County Players are celebrating 85 years since they first set up shop. They have been in town in their present home since 1949. Seeking to provide entertainment locally in the midst of tough times, a group met in a back room at the Hackensack YMCA. They signed a charter and brought into being a community theater organization they called The Bergen County Players Inc. One of those original organizers was Helen Burke Travolta, mother of John Travolta.
Today the theater continues to offer quality and reasonably priced entertainment in an historic location with character.
