American Repertory Theater of WNY is kicking off the 2025-26 season with a special fundraiser/subscription drive that assists in delivering theater with a purpose.

ART/WNY is a grass-roots company that relies on the community to which it serves and continues the artistic mission of supporting unknown or unseen talent. Every dollar counts as your contribution helps fund the creative efforts of actors, designers and production teams throughout the season.

No public money handouts for lobby & building renovations. No corporate sponsorship to cover administrative salaries. No rent- free arrangements. ART relies on the community for support and 100% of your donation goes right back into the creative efforts of the company.

That’s your hard-earned dollar truly (and directly) supporting the Arts.

As a way of saying thank you ART/WNY would like to offer the following for your generosity:

$25 - $60 - 2 tickets to a ART production snd an invite to attend the annual Mardi Gras Shindig
Above $60 - 4 tickets a ART production & an invite to attend the annual Mardi Gras Shindig & the Crock Pot Cookoff
Above $100 - 2 season tickets & an invite to attend the annual Mardi Gras Shindig & the Crock Pot Cookoff
Above $200 - 4 season tickets & an invite to attend the annual Mardi Gras Shindig, the Crock Pot Cookoff, and all special events

Thank you.

What an incredible wrap to the 2024-25 season. The company is proud of the efforts of all the ensembles, directors, and production teams that lead to a very successful season of solid, original theater.

American Repertory Theater of WNY is among several other theater companies (Buffalo United Theater, Brazen-Faced Varlets, First Look, Road Less Traveled Productions and Torn Space Theater) that truly lead Buffalo in being pioneers in bringing originality, non-commercial, non-prefab theater to this city. We don't grandstand in acceptance speeches about how we are raising the bar "of excellence" or bringing great works to Buffalo stages, no, our actions speak for themselves.

ART/WNY is proud to be part of this misfit coalition.

Onward to the 2025-26 season and bringing originality to the Buffalo theater stage.

Thank you to the 45+ actors who showed up for the company's 2025-26 season general auditions. With a tremendous amount of new faces (and some familiar ones as with ART alumni Victor Morales) and talent, you have made some very difficult choices to make in casting for the season.

Callbacks are being scheduled for the upcoming month. In the meantime, thanks to all who showed up and gave it their best shot.

American Repertory Theater of WNY congratulates all the company’s ensembles, directors, designers and production staff for their outstanding efforts in making 2024-25 season a tremendously successful one
