The above article from the Buffalo News spotlights the Riviera.
I recently went to the Riviera in the evening. The marquee lit the whole street up. What a neat site, and I wasn’t even in the theater yet!!!

There are some really good events scheduled for the Riviera this summer. Check them out at the site above.
I was just at the Riviera last Sat May 8th What a nice house it still is and the Mighty Wurlitzer sounded awesome. To bad the weather sucked. It was cold and windy.
Hey Lost I am on the run. LOL
There is a Dustin Hoffman film festival scheduled here for this summer. Seeing movies like The Graduate in this classic theatre will be a memorable experience.
Friends of the Riviera Wurlitzer now have their own website. Plenty of information to be found there and for those with more than just a fleeting interest in the welfare of this great example of North American movie theatre history, it is now possible to make donations directly to the theatre.

Many thanks to all of you have taken an interest in this wonderful theatre.
For those with a greater interest in the Mighty Wurlitzer. The Buffalo Area Chapter of the American Theatre Organ Society recently made the Riviera Theatre and Performing Arts Center their spiritual home. Many of their members were already members of the Riviera Theatre & Organ Preservation Society (current owners of the theatre) and are happy to announce the Monthly Organ Concert Program for 2010. Starting on April 11 at 2:00pm with a concert by North Tonawanda native Justin Nimmo, full details can be found on their web site: http://theatreorgans.com/bac-atos/
Full details of all the theatre’s programs are to be found on: http://rivieratheatre.org

Patsy: The console work will be done in phase II of the project. That work is currently planned for next year. I did upload a recent picture of it.
