Photo Coverage: Gingold Theatrical Group's GOLDEN SHAMROCK GALA Honors Tyne Daly

Gingold Theatrical Group, under the leadership of Founding Artistic Director David Staller, honored Tony and Emmy-winning actress and GTG/Project Shaw alum Tyne Daly at its annuAl Golden Shamrock Gala, March 17 at 6;30pm, at 3 West Club (3 West 51st Street), and BroadwayWorld was there to capture the action.

The GTG Golden Shamrock Award is given annually for artistic contribution to society. Past honorees include Terrence McNally, Judith Ivey, Brian Murray, Robert Osborne, Anita Jaffe, Charles Busch, Kate Mulgrew, and Kenneth Lonergan.

"As we celebrate the 100th anniversary of women getting the vote in New York with GTG's theme for 2017, 'Women Take The Stage: G.B.S. and 100 years of women's rights', Tyne Daly is the perfect embodiment of Shaw's idealized vision of the Life Force: brilliant, beautiful, vital, engaged, contributive, loving, open-hearted, and enjoying life - and we are thrilled to honor her this and every day," said Artistic Director David Staller.

Join Charles Busch, Alison Fraser, Joel Grey, Liliane Montevecchi, Kate Mulgrew, TCM's Robert Osborne, Aaron Weinstein, Irish Fiddlers, and other surprise guests for an evening of celebration raising voices and building for the future.

A traditional Irish/American dinner will be served of corned beef and cabbage, stews, pies, puddings, ales and toasts. To get your Irish up, musicians will also be on hand. Cocktail attire.

A Theater Hall of Fame inductee, Daly won the Tony Award as Best Actress in a Musical for the Broadway revival of Gypsy. She has also triumphed on the concert and cabaret stages.

Now in its 12th year, Gingold Theatrical Group is dedicated to presenting plays about Human Rights using the work of George Bernard Shaw as its guide. GTG's goal is to carve a permanent niche for the work of G.B.S. within the social and cultural life of New York-bringing his canon and precepts to larger audiences while encouraging individuals to breathe these humanitarian ideals into their contributions for the future. GTG produces the annuAl Shaw NEW YORK festival, the monthly PROJECT SHAW, the SHAW CLUB, the PRESS CUTTINGS new play development, and many educational outreach programs.
