ABOUT

Starring Buffalo closed its fifth season May 31 - June 1, 2024 at Shea’s 710 Theater with the epic TITANIC, featuring original songs by Maury Yeston (Nine, Grand Hotel). Majestic and dramatic, with moments of comedy and whimsy, TITANIC tells the story of triumph and tragedy of the passengers on the ill-fated “ship of dreams” that has captivated imaginations and hearts for over 100-years.

Broadway’s Rodney Ingram (Aladdin, The Phantom of the Opera) and Jonathan Young (Pretty Woman - Tour) led the cast. They were joined by Buffalo-based recording artist Jay Dref (Sarah Brightman’s ‘A Christmas Symphony’), Louis Colaiacovo, Keith Ersing, David P. Eve, Alex Anthony Garcia, Karen Harty, Jake Hayes, Jetaun Louie, Charles McGregor, Kayla McSorley, Mary Kate O’Connell, John Patrick Patti, Rachel Ross, Julianna Tracey and Christopher Wagner. The Starring Buffalo Chorus rounded out the sound to make TITANIC the largest Starring Buffalo production to date!
