The St. Louis Dramatic Circle Buffalo, New York
Shortly after St. Louis Church at Main and Edward Streets in Buffalo burned in a spectacular 1885 fire, a group of men from the parish formed the St. Louis Dramatic Circle to raise funds for the construction of a new church. Their first production, Legend of the Catskills was produced on September 13 and 14, 1885 in the St. Louis School Hall. The St. Louis Dramatic Circle was the oldest amateur dramatic society in continuous existence when the remaining members celebrated its' 75th anniversary at a dinner in 1960.
