In this space, we'll be answering questions about our upcoming move to Shea's 710 Theatre as information becomes available to us. Check back for updates!
QUESTION: What will be the location of MusicalFare Theatre’s new home, beginning with the 2025-2026 Season?
After our final production in May of 2025 (WAITRESS) at Daemen University, all future MusicalFare seasons will be presented in the spacious but intimate Shea’s 710 Theatre, beginning in the Fall of 2025. MusicalFare & Shea’s 710 recently signed a 10-year lease agreement (with an option to renew for another 10 years). This long term collaboration will also serve to boost Buffalo’s Theatre District and the overall Downtown energy.

QUESTION: What will future MusicalFare seasons at Shea’s 710 Theatre look like?
MusicalFare is still planning to produce five musical productions, per season. Because Shea’s 710 Theatre has more than four times the number of seats than at Daemen, productions will only run for 3 weeks each, with 5 performances per week.

QUESTION: What can you tell us about parking and transportation?
As you may know, there are numerous parking lots and some street parking available near Shea’s 710. But, we are aware that folks with mobility issues may still find that cumbersome. We are currently exploring options with tour bus operators for transportation from various locations in WNY. Potentially, patrons would be able to be dropped off at Shea’s 710 and have direct access into the front entrance with no stairs to climb as the front doors are street-level! Logistics are still be worked out, so keep an eye on out for more updates.
