***A Benefit for TORN SPACE Theater Company***

Featuring live sets by Knife Crazy and The Frame up, DJ sets by Jon Solo and MJB Corporation & an appearance by Spiritwind Internal Arts, a local dance/improv music collective that focuses on traditional Asian dances.

Starts at 9 p.m., goes on for a while. Click here for directions to Soundlab.
Suggested donation $7, but they'll take whatever you can offer ...

The company’s 2005 production, "Muriel Vanderbuilt Goes Walking" (written by Dan Shanahan) was recently accepted to the Fringe Festival in NYC. Though a great accomplishment, the non for profit company will incur many costs such as accommodations for cast and additional crew and a complete set rebuild.

The Torn Space theater company, founded by Dan Shanahan in the spring of 2000, is committed to utilizing the talents of local artists to create contemporary drama not otherwise produced in the WNY area. Since its conception, the company has been developing shows at the Adam Mickiewicz Dramatic Circle on Buffalo’s East Side, which in turn rejuvenated the venue and surrounding neighborhood.

Good times for a good cause.
