This week on Cast Party, we’re closing out the year and Season 1 with a very special guest — the one and only Vinny Murphy! Who you might recognize his name from the many shout-outs we’ve been giving him since our second episode of Cast Party. Join us as we chat with Vinny about being a local performer, the life of an understudy, and some seriously underrated musicals you’ll want to add to your must-see list. As we head into the new year, we’ve got one resolution on our minds: see more theatre with Vinny. Tune in for a heartfelt, fun, and fitting finale! And stay tuned for Season 2 in 2026!

This week on Cast Party, we’re getting into the Holiday Spirit by welcoming back our very first Behind the Curtain guest, Rachael Fedor! She joins us to help roll out the red carpet for the Company of Cirque du Soleil as they tumble into the 716 for performances of ’Twas the Night Before running December 18th–28th. Plus — a Cast Party first — the gang delivers a special dramatic holiday reading of a poem that might sound a little familiar. So grab your Tom and Jerrys, light the fire, and get cozy — we’ve got a festive episode you won’t want to miss!

This week on Cast Party, we’re getting into the Holiday Spirit with a magical interview featuring local artist — and featured soloist in our upcoming production of The Nutcracker — Adrien Malof! Join us as Adrien shares her cherished memories of growing up with Neglia Ballet Company, her journey as an artist, and her many holiday adventures performing at Shea’s. We can’t wait to see her twirl back onto our stage this season! Don’t miss The Nutcracker, co-produced by Neglia Ballet, the Buffalo Philharmonic Orchestra, and Shea’s, running December 5th–7th.
