Born and raised in Smithton, PA, just outside of Pittsburgh, Shirley's illustrious career began when she was discovered at a casting call for Rodgers and Hammerstein. Her exceptional talent quickly led to starring roles in Broadway productions and iconic films such as OKLAHOMA! and CAROUSEL. This celebration honors her deep roots in the Pittsburgh community and her remarkable journey to stardom.

This spectacular evening promises a star-studded tribute concert, delicious cuisine, and an opportunity to support Pittsburgh CLO's vital Education and Artistic programs. Patrick Cassidy will direct the Gala. And serving as the Musical Director will be Kimberly Grigsby, most currently the Musical Director and Conductor for DAYS OF WINE & ROSES on Broadway.
This will be an evening to remember, featuring performances by Broadway stars including Kelli O'Hara (THE KING & I), Sierra Boggess (THE LITTLE MERMAID), Jessie Mueller (BEAUTIFUL: The Carole King Musical), Adam Pascal (RENT), and Norm Lewis (THE PHANTOM OF THE OPERA).

This Gala Celebration is a vital fundraiser for Pittsburgh CLO's Education and Arts programs, bringing exceptional arts education and enriching experiences to the Pittsburgh community.
Shaun, Patrick, and Ryan shared “As our mother turned ninety this year, we are thrilled that her hometown of Pittsburgh, and the Pittsburgh CLO, are honoring her with what will be a rich and emotional evening. We are looking forward to sharing personal stories of life with mom while these extraordinary performers lift the audience to their feet with the songs that made her famous. Bring your Kleenex.”
