BUFFALO STORIES 2018 to Feature Legendary Local Restaurateur Image

Road Less Traveled Productions (RLTP) is excited to announce its third annual fundraiser: Buffalo Stories. Buffalo Stories 2018 will feature guest of honor, restaurateur Russell Salvatore. Legendary Buffalo entrepreneur Russell J. Salvatore revolutionized fine dining in Western New York by the end of the 20th Century and then, content with a job well done, proceeded to retire... only to discover that, in his case, life really did begin at 70! What follows is a humorous and upbeat adventure full of philanthropy and world-class steak dinners! Buffalo Stories: The Life of Russell Salvatore presents a full-course musical feast in celebration of one of the great second acts of American Life: Mr. Chairman himself, Russ Salvatore.

Buffalo Stories: The Life of Russell Salvatore will take place on Friday June 8th, 2018. The evening will begin with a pre-performance reception at 7:00 p.m., including cocktails and hors d'oeuvres. Performance will take place at 8:00 p.m. with a post-show reception to follow.

Seating is limited. Tickets available through advance purchase only. Tickets will not be sold at the door. Ticket prices for the event are $200 each or $375 per couple. Tickets are available by phone at (716) 629-3069 or online here: http://roadlesstraveledproductions.org/shows-tickets/buffalostories/.

Corporate Sponsorship packages are also available, please contact Gina Gandolfo at 716.903.9936 or ggandolfo@roadlesstraveledproductions.org for more information.
