Her’s is an eclectic act that radiates joy, love, warmth & an awesome range & versatility.” Having received a Tony nomination for her dazzling performance in Broadway’s She Loves Me, Sally’s other Broadway credits include Cy Coleman’s Welcome to the Club, for which she was awarded the Theatre World Award, Steel Magnolias & Urban Cowboy.
