Know Before You Go

Welcome to Shea's Buffalo Theatre! The historic crown jewel of Shea’s PAC, opened in 1926 under the moniker of “The Wonder Theatre,” serving as a movie house under Paramount Pictures with “an acre of seats”. Over the past 20 years, there has been over $30 million in restoration completed, all by volunteers, to keep the only surviving Tiffany designed theater in magnificent condition for our patrons and the community.
