Shea's Annual Gala


The extended fun-filled evening will start off with cocktails and a silent auction at Buffalo's Adam's Mark Hotel. Following, a gourmet dinner will be served. From there, the party will travel to Shea's via provided transportation, where the performance will begin. All ticket-holders for this event will receive preferred seating.
After the show, Shea's will be hosting a Post Party, featuring music by The Jim Tudini Band and plenty of dancing, drinks, coffee, and desserts to go around. Cast members are also invited to attend the post-performance gathering.
All proceeds from this event will go back to the theatre, as per Shea's mission statement: “To restore and maintain Shea’s Buffalo Theatre for present and future generations to enjoy as a working historic theatre providing a wide variety of live performing arts experiences for our patrons and innovative and effective educational experiences fostering an appreciation of live theatre by area youth," according to Linda Sroka, Development Manager at Shea's.
Since Shea's is a non profit organization, ticket sales go toward production costs, allowing Shea's ticket prices for Broadway shows to remain as some of the lowest around. Any additional profits from ticket sales go toward the restoration and maintenance of the National Historic Site. Funds raised by the Gala will also benefit the restoration of the theatre.

A week after his 83rd birthday and on the eve of a new year, Michael Goldberg collapsed in his Manhattan studio. He died of a heart attack and the world lost one of the few remaining survivors of the New York School and a major abstract expressionist painter. What’s nice about being an artist is that even when you are gone, your work lives on forever. Bringing this influential artist to Buffalo is the UB Anderson Gallery. They are presenting a memorial exhibit entitled “Ode to …
