Canterbury Woods retirement community recently opened a beautiful performing arts center which will…read morebe open to the public for music, plays, etc. We attended a small concert there. It's a sleek model looking building. The theater itself has 250 comfortable seats and wide aisles. The slope is perfect for views from any seat. The sound seemed very good. You currently need to go to the main Canterbury Woods website to find the calendar of events for the Performing Arts Center. But well worth the effort. Can't wait to see what else they'll be offering. 2023-110

We were there to hear about the 2026-27 season. Tickets are free, but we had to register. The event…read morewas called for 5:30. At 6 the doors were finally opened to sit down and hear about the season. It is now 6:15. The organ is still playing; there is no evidence of someone coming out to talk about the '26-'27 season. There are vendors in the lobby, selling beer, water, wine, popcorn. Nothing complimentary. 6:32 and the first speakers have appeared. Very disorganized. The presentation was a bit lengthy, but very nice. Each of the seven shows in the subscriber series was introduced. Guest artists performed songs from two musicals in the subscription: "Sound of Music" and "The Great Gatsby". There are three additional shows which are not part of the subscription, but to which subscribers can purchase tickets ahead of the general public. The presentation lasted about an hour.

When you think of going to the theatre, this is the place I would picture in my mind. Shea's is…read moreabout to turn 100 years old in 2026 and it's a Buffalo staple through and through. If you had a day in Buffalo, this is one of the places you would want to check out. The shows I have been to here over the years are always well done. The staff are always so helpful and genuinely seem happy to be there. I am not a big theatre person so it's great to have them there to make sure I am in the right place and not committing any theatre mistakes. The concessions here are pretty decently priced. There is a good variety of drinks and snack options. As someone who generally goes to the movies more than the theatre, I was pleasantly surprised with the options. This space is beautiful. It makes you feel like you've stepped back in time but in the best way. The architecture alone is a reason to come check out this spot, but stay for a show and enjoy!

We came in for a Saturday night magic show. We thought it was amazing, but left at intermission…read morebecause we were both incredibly exhausted. From what we saw the show was great, the illusions were incredible and unlike cases where the tricks are obvious, there were some amazing illusions that had us questioning how that was possible. Two magicians performed and it was very cool to watch. My husband was even able to participate before we left. The one downside I would note is that this is a child friendly show, which isn't a problem, except you may be put at a table with young children. When sat we were put next to each other causing a party of five to be across from us, they sat the young children at the end of the table, so they could see understandably, but they sat parents down at the opposite end. The family was very respectful, but if you are not a children person, this may not be the environment for you. Over all great show! I wish I wasn't exhausted and could have stayed for the whole thing!

Great experience! Found the show in a Google search after we decided we were done with the falls…read more We chose it because of the reviews and they were accurate. We had a great time! When we started to think we knew what was happening, he had a unique twist that surprised us. They incorporate animals into the show and we loved that. Overall, 3 adults and 2 teens were captivated. We didn't eat there but feedback from the table was that the food was "meh". We did get some mocktails and were surprised by affordable pricing. We wished there were some desserts to order. Note: If you have a WEGO pass, it's off the blue line by the Howard Johnson's stop. Parking was still advertised as "free" if you had tickets to the show so we parked there earlier in the day. **It is not**. We were told by the attendant that it is $5 cash/$6 card with tickets (still reasonable for the area). Free ended 2 months ago and to take it up inside. I did and they confirmed it ended. I sent an email with the info from their site that says it's free still and they said they would take that down and did offer a refund if I called.

Chere P hosted a tarot soiree with Lady Hagathorn at her lovely abode. By my scientific friends'…read morestandards I'm entirely hokey because I think there's some truth in astrology (naturally the position of planetary bodies affect mass. Gravity?) but I don't put much faith in tarot. What I didn't realize though was that it doesn't predict your future but illuminate those things buried in your subconscious and present life. I was totally unprepared to be blown away. Lady was uncannily accurate about things I wasn't even aware I cared so much about and the more she spoke the further my metaphorical jaw dropped. She has such a calming demeanor and though she talks about pretty intense things doesn't scare you with the negative just suggests that you be cautious. if you're at all curious, give her a call.

The Dry Gulch Dance Club is a basic space, with a nice large dance floor, a good sound system, and…read moreplenty of parking. I gave it 4* because it is not the Statler. Tuesday nights is country line dancing with beginner lessons at 6PM, intermediate at 6:30PM, and dancing until 9/10 cost $10. My husband and I went for the first time this week. There were about 25 women of all ages in attendance. My husband and I did well with the beginner program, and stumbled through the 88!!! count intermediate program before deciding we needed to watch the You Tube video a few more times at home for that level. The group is very welcoming to newcomers, there are snack bags and water for sale or you can bring your own. I am definitely going back, and to Paula's other class at The Cove on Thursdays, as this will not defeat me. I think the Tuesday evening, and a 1st Saturday country dancing program are the only two regular events at Dry Gulch.

The Dance Workshop is an amazing dance studio and I have been dancing there since I was 5 and I…read morelove it. I love all the teachers and all the friendly people. It is so fun to dance there and this dance studio has made my dream become a reality. These people helped me become a better person and a better dancer, they taught me some of my very first skills like a backbend and a roundoff. I absolutely love this place. I practically grew up here. The Dance Workshop is basically my second home, and I love it. I will continue dancing here until I can't anymore. The recitals and classes are so much fun and everyone there is so understanding and fun. It is an amazing place with amazing people and amazing talent. I have been dancing for a long time now and have been doing contortion for two years and cheerleading for one. Dancing will forever be my favorite thing and will always be my number one thing. Even when I grow up and do bigger better things I will never forget my first passion and the people and place that got me there. I love it so much and can't express all my love for it in one review. It deserves so much praise and love. And if you don't believe me you can see for yourself. I love these people so much and they are pretty much my second family. I love you all. Thank you for everything you have done and continue to do. I love you all!

She has moved to behind McDonalds on Broadway.We will not attend next year . I was still working in…read moreSept. when dancing started so my husband took the kids (My grandson and granddaughter) They would forget their shoes so Miss Joann told my husband to leave the shoes there then he would not have to worry about forgetting them so he did.The kids said they lost Julians and he was wearing girl shoes so I started looking again at the consignment stores for boy tap shoes (hard to find) finally found some in tan( I had black at the beginning of dance) and Morgan said hers were tight also so I had a pair from her sister and told her to bring the tight pair home I would take them to the consignment store. Well when i picked up the kids they said she wouldn't give them Morgans shoes she said the shoes were hers that they never had shoes.I was so mad who would send kids to dancing with no shoes ( NOT ME ).Well she would not even listen she just kept saying they were her shoes and they had shoes so why did i want them anyway...to take them back to the consignment store to sell and if she found Julian's black would be better than tan!! I am sick of people lying and not even listening to what you are saying. FIND A BETTER STUDIO FOR YOUR KIDS!!!!!

Community Theater at its finest! This was not my first show here and it won't be my last…read more Everything I have seen is fantastic from front to back of house. They have a couple of pre-sale ticket locations but being from out of town I can not access those sites easily. I do wish they had online sales for convenience but there has always been tickets available at the door so I don't stress out about it. Before the show you can peruse through giant scrap books with past shows and other theater information. It is cool to be able to look through a troupes history. Enjoy a snack any time as refreshments are sold before and during intermission. Just follow theater etiquette and try to keep the wrapper rustling to a minimum. Their home is in the Sheridan Parkside Community center which is an old school. The only slight flaw is that the seats are less than ideal due to the age of the facilities, but they are currently raising money to renovate the seating so I expect that issue to be resolved in the coming year. I believe all shows run two weekends at least and they often offer dinner theater on opening night of some shows. The acting is supurb, the sets are stellar and it has always been a great night of entertainment. I encourage you to support Towne Players, support your community and support the arts. It is worth it!

The Alleyway is a fine little theater. I always enjoy the performance whenever I attend. This last…read morevisit was no exception. Step into the way back machine as you sit in the lobby. Pretend you're on the lam and waiting for a bus to hightail it out of town. The current production "The Murder of Roger Ackroyd" was terrific. The seating arrangement enhanced the audience experience by making you feel as if you're part of the show. Although the chairs are not too comfortable. Some people might benefit from bringing a cushion.

Terrific show tonight! Closing their 45th season with…read moreChristie's The Murder of Roger Ackroyd, an adaptation by Heidi Armbruster, a cast of seven playing multiple roles gave fantastic performances. This is a MUST-SEE. The play runs April 11 through May 3, 2025. Major opening is April 16. Tonight and 3 more nights are "preview" nights. Admission for preview nights is "pay what you can." Great opportunity for theater lovers on a tight budget. Acting, direction, lighting, sound effects all contribute to an evening of suspense and. . . a lot of laughs. Bet you weren't expecting that. Come out and experience a most enjoyable evening. Other reviews will give you more information about Alleyway Theater location, parking, and bar drinks.

This review is on the 1776 The Musical Concert April 2026. I was disappointed in the musical. The…read moreactors were wonderful, but I was expecting an emphasis on celebrating America's 250 Birthday. Instead there were swear words and sexual references. I brought my grandson to this musical. I thought there would be patriotic music, like our National Anthem etc. They made the history of our founders a joke, instead of honoring our great country. I am a veteran of the US Navy and I thank God everyday for this great country. I think they missed the mark on this one. HAPPY BIRTHDAY to the United States of America the greatest nation on earth. ​
