Not a bad seat in the house. Historic theatre with wonderful charm.. go for one show or get season tickets, either way - you can't go wrong.
The restoration is coming along wonderfully. This place is the crown jewel of Buffalo entertainment. Do yourself a favor and come enjoy it.
Historical and gorgeous theatre. Musicals, tours, vocalists, instrumentalists, films...a wonderful establishment of Buffalo.
MichelleSeptember 19, 2012VH1 Classic concert- Firehouse,Ratt,Quiet Riot. Went back for Beyond Ghost event- had some great experiences there with fellow members of NYX Paranormal and met Rev. Tim Shaw for first time
Cyn StoltzJune 30, 2017Seats are cramped, leg room is nearly nonexistent and I am short!! Always try for seats on the aisle so you can at least have a little more room.
Scot C @DjScotECJanuary 20, 2014Wicked in first row, center, right behind the conducted was surreal. Best show I've ever been too- Absolutely incredible venue for theatre. Note that you aren't permitted into your seats until an hour prior to a show beginning.
Raymond BaileyJuly 24, 2016A great historic building in Buffalo. Definitely stop in and at least look around.
Edward McCarthyDecember 4, 2016There's not a bad seat in the house. Wonderful venue for any type of performance.
- My wife and I have had season tickets here for at least 10 years. Gorgeous venue. The seats on the floor have tons of legroom.
Steve MitchellJune 17, 2013I saw a tip that said "classy venue." It very much is a classy establishment. I just wish ppl would treat it as such. I saw two kids in there with t-shirts and gym shorts. Not classy at all.
Righteous Babe RecordsApril 10, 2012A beautiful venue in which Ani performed a benefit called “a days pay” for the Buffalo Public schools. Folks were encouraged to donate a days pay!
Orchestra seats in double letters are too close together, but rows P through U are very generous.
Courtney ISeptember 26, 2011Ghost sightings of a white-haired, mustachioed man asking theater-goers "Isn't it magnificent?" - then disappearing. Could it be the ghost of Michael Shea admiring his handiwork?
Would not recommend Book of Mormon. At very bottom of list of all time favorite plays.
Baldini and Vandersluys PhotographersJanuary 20, 2015One of the best shows I saw at Shea's was Peter Gabriel ,
- Awesome ambiance but the seats could use a little more legroom.
Paulo AlbuquerqueNovember 10, 2012Watched "So You Think You Can Dance Tour 2012" there - great venue!
- Elmo on stage 3/5 and.Porgy &Bess 3/16. Tyler Perry 4/10.
