Starring Buffalo is a not-for-profit theater and education company that produces collaborations among visiting Broadway actors, Buffalo arts professionals, and Buffalo students. The company launched in 2018 with its production of The Hunchback of Notre Dame, which featured four Broadway guest artists, dozens of Buffalo professionals, and nearly 200 area students. Broadwayworld called it a "sleek, top-notch outing," raving "Youth, ingenuity and courage can be held responsible for Buffalo's latest artistic endeavor. Starring Buffalo...is off to a flying start" and JazzBuffalo said "the cast of Broadway veterans, local theatre veterans and high school students pulled this off magnificently."
