| 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. |
