Planned as the library’s fall fundraiser, the program features Ireland’s “Happy Man,” so-called for the song he performed in the international Eurovision contest representing his native land.
The song went on to become a hit in Europe, but the economy in the 1970s made him set out to explore his options in the United States. Long a resident of the Pittsburgh region, Dunne is known for his versatile musical stylings which range from pop, Broadway, country and traditional folk songs of Ireland.
He has performed with show biz luminaries such as Bob Hope, Al Martino and Tony Orlando and has also performed for presidents. Known, too, for his abilities as a storyteller and raconteur, his appearance at the library’s fundraiser guarantees an entertaining evening.
Along with the performance, the evening will feature raffle baskets, a silent auction, door prizes, and a half the take.
Tickets are $20 in advance and include dessert and coffee. The event welcomes BYOB and snacks, and the doors will open at 6:30 p.m. with the performance slated for 7:30 – 10 p.m. Tickets are available at the library, located at 700 Plaza Drive near Shop ‘n Save in Rostraver. Tickets will also be available the night of the show at the fire hall, located at 1100 Fells Church Road in Belle Vernon, but at $25 each.
