Travelers will also have the opportunity to visit the outstanding historical theater in Buffalo. It's called Shea's. It has the status of a major art center today. The theater was opened in 1926. One of its main features is considered to be an old theater pipe organ today. It has been in it since the day it was opened. It is used for its intended purpose until now.

Initially, the architects sought to make the theater building and interior in the European style, characteristic of the turn of the 17th-18th centuries. Initially, the theater was designed for 4,000 spectators. But more than 200 seats were removed a few years after the theater opened. This was done to make the accommodation conditions more comfortable for the audience. 3,019 seats are currently available in the theater hall. The historic Shea's Theater is one of the few in the world that has almost completely managed to preserve its original luxurious design.

The best Czech masters made unique crystal chandeliers and lamps for the theater. A little less than $2 million was invested in the construction and decoration of the theater. The theater miraculously did not lose its luxurious interiors in the middle of the 20th century. Their elements were repeatedly confiscated. The historical theater is used not only for various productions today. Important exhibitions and presentations, as well as other outstanding events, are held here. Many people come to the theater for the sole purpose of listening to its ancient Mighty Wurlitzer organ. It is considered a great honor to play it for all world-class performers.
