The Bar:
It is by far the largest gay bar or
club in all of Buffalo. It has recently move to a very
large and newly remodeled building. The new club, now
called Marcella Show Club is twice as big and a lot
brighter and stylized. The dance floor is twice as big,
making it the largest gay bar dance floor in the city of
Buffalo. A large Lounge area at the Main St side of the
bar, has a series of booths and tables and includes at
smaller circular bar. This area is perfect for birthday
parties, wedding showers, and organization parties to be
in a large club with an area all to themselves. An open
air patio is available for smoking and conversing with
weather permitting.
The Music:
The best DJs and house, techno, and
trance in the city. Occasionally even playing disco,
glam, and rock. The weekly schedule of events is a
varied as the customers who attend. Wednesday Friday,
Saturday, and Sunday nights include a show with female
impersonators - drag shows, with two shows each evening.
A very wide variety of party events occur through out
the year.
The Drag
Environment:
The crowd that attends club Marcella
is about as varied as possible. Drag Queens are always
there, and many find Marcella the number 1 place to
dress in drag for the evening. The trans-gendered find
it about the most friendly and acceptable place to be
themselves. Several of the cast performers and many
guest performers would consider themselves as being
trans-gendered. Drag Queen supporters and fanciers, find
Marcella Show Club as the ultimate Drag Bar outside of
NYC, Chicago and Toronto. Quite a few find the
performances actually exceed the quality of drag
performances in those cities. Lesbians and Lesbian
groups usually call Marcella Show Club one of the best
places to merge with an integrated crowd and get away
from the usual lesbian bars. The largest Drag Pageants
in Buffalo usually occur at this club. These pageants
include Mr & Miss Gay Buffalo, Mr & Miss Club Marcella,
and Miss Watch Me Serve.
The People - Gay,
Lesbian, Bi-sexual, Tran gendered, and Straight:
The bar is located in Buffalo's
largest bar area - the Chippewa Bar Strip, so when most
of the straight bars play the same old music on their
tiny dance floors most of the straight customers head
straight to Marcella Show Club especially on Sunday
nights to take in "Life's A Drag" Buffalo's longest
running live performance. Chippewa St. and the entire
theater district actually looks like a ghost town. The
Chippewa down-low, bi-sexual and tri-sexual crowd find
Marcella to be the perfect place to stay in the closet
and blend in with the hundreds of others who "just come
to Marcella Show Club to dance". Of course they do
happen to watch the best bartenders in Buffalo, in their
boxers dance on the bar or the guys & girls dancing at
the pole, and enjoy the best dance music in the city.
Holiday Weekends and Special Event Parties, are when
Marcella Show Club takes over the entire city of Buffalo
especially the gay community. This club throws the
largest and best parties anywhere. 1,300 people packed
the club for the "White Party" in 2005. People had to
park blocks away and wait in line for almost half an
hour. These parties are usually themed and all who enter
the club must be dresses appropriately. Seeing the
entire club dressed in white during the White Party,
adds to the experience. Buffalo's Leather and Bear
groups even attend.
