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.

Seats 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.

Melissa Burgess

Absolutely incredible venue for theatre . Note that you aren't permitted into your seats until an hour prior to a show beginning.

Kurt K

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 .

Wicked in first row, center, right behind the conducted was surreal. Best show I've ever been too

I 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.

Ghost 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?
