Gentlemen Prefer Divas ~ DIVA by DIVA meets GENTLEMEN’S GENTLEMEN in this all-star cabaret celebration! I'm excited for my first Curtain Up! show, with O'Connell & Company at Shea's Smith Theatre. This time it's a DIVA mash-up with chaps. Originally conceived by Mary Kate O’Connell. Call Shea’s Smith Theatre box office at (716) 847-1410 or purchase tickets online.  NOTE I'll be at the Gala Dinner in Shea's on Friday, and performing in the Sunday afternoon performance as well.

** MaryKate O'Connell, Executive/ Artistic Director of O'Connell & Company Productions, Inc., will be inducted into the Theatre District's PLAZA OF STARS as part of the 35th Annual Curtain Up kick-off Friday night! Ms. O'Connell is one of the most imaginative and respected members of Buffalo’s Theatre Community and a leading voice for creative expression. We are so proud to enshrine her in the PLAZA OF STARS for future generations to recognize her artistic and philanthropic contributions. **

DIVA by DIVA A Celebration of Women (at 18 years, the longest-running show in WNY) is partnering their signature show with their male counterpart revue, GENTLEMEN'S GENTLEMEN. The show is a cabaret-style format celebrating the many images of men and women through quotes, stories, jokes and it is filled with wonderful music, great fun and a different mix of cast and material. This special engagement is a fundraiser for O'Connell & Company and a portion of the proceeds will benefit the BPO Kids for Exceptional Kids! series.
