You are an hour and change west of Buffalo, it is a Friday night in June, and Tony Danza is about to tap dance his way through a Frank Sinatra tribute at a casino room on the edge of the Falls. I have been in worse situations.
Tony Danza: Sinatra & Stories hits the Bears Den at Seneca Niagara Resort & Casino on Friday, June 19, 2026 at 8:00 PM — with a second night on June 20. The show is Danza, a four-piece band, classic standards from the Great American Songbook, and the kind of personal storytelling that only lands when the person telling it actually lived it.
About Tony Danza
Before you write him off as a TV nostalgia act — don’t. The New York Times called him “a live wire who tap-dances, plays the ukulele, tells stories and radiates irresistible charm,” and that was for a recent cabaret run, not a reunion special. He just completed two sold-out residencies at Café Carlyle in New York City with this exact show.
Brooklyn-born, former professional boxer, star of Taxi and eight seasons of Who’s the Boss?, Danza has Broadway credits in The Producers, A View from the Bridge, and Honeymoon in Vegas — the last of which earned him a “sly genius” review from the Times, who noted his performance recalled his idol, Frank Sinatra. That Sinatra connection runs deep: Danza knew the man personally, and this show reflects that. BroadwayWorld put it well: “His voice and showmanship is a welcome reminder of why the standards are just that — because they’re timeless.”
About the Venue
The Bears Den at Seneca Niagara Resort & Casino is a 2,200-seat entertainment room in Niagara Falls, NY. Casino venues tend to run tighter productions than you might expect, and the Falls-adjacent location makes it easy to justify an overnight stay — especially with a second night on June 20. If you are driving in from the Buffalo / Western NY area, budget for border-town traffic on a Friday and give yourself time to get settled before showtime.
