BUFFALO, N.Y. (WKBW) — Shea's Performing Arts Center has dropped its lineup for the 2025-26 Broadway Season, which includes a total of eight productions!
We're starting with a tale as old as time. The first North American production in over 25 years of Disney's "Beauty and the Beast" will bring its enchantment first from August 20 to 24, 2025.
It's a special subscriber add-on, part of the Gallagher Encore Specials, meaning it's not included in season ticket packages.
The regular season starts September 17 to 23, 2025 with "The Outsiders." This show took home four Tony Awards last year, including Best Musical.
Another popular book and movie, The Notebook arrives October 7 to 12, 2025. You can expect all the drama and romance that makes this story so iconic.
You'll be changed "for good" when Wicked returns from November 12 to 30, 2025.
We all fell in love with Ariana and Cynthia on the big screen. But now it's time to see where the magic began, on stage.
"'Twas The Night Before" will get you into the holiday spirit as Cirque Du Soleil takes the stage on December 17. The show is based on the classic poem "A Visit from Saint Nicolas" by Clement Clarke Moore.
The season continues March 17 to 22, 2026 with "Kimberly Akimbo," the winner of five 2023 Tony Awards including Best Musical.
From April 14 to 19, 2026, another popular book and movie, "Water for Elephants," comes to life on stage.
And Shea's wraps things up June 2 to 7, 2026 with the acclaimed Tony Award-winning musical "Suffs."
