A Special Afternoon at the Theater
Hall posted on Instagram, “What a delightful afternoon with BFF Susan Hayes. Our dear and talented friend Amy Shaughnessy (of the DAYS Shaughnessys) gave a stunning performance as Elise in The Henry Clyde Canning Murder House at Moving Arts Bold New Theatre. While this riveting thriller by Christian Missonak features four fascinating characters, Amy Shaughnessy emerges as a fresh new talent to watch.”

The Shaughnessy Family Tradition Continues
The legendary Hall was cheering on someone from a family that has spent decades around television. Amy is Charles Shaughnessy’s (Shane Donovan) niece, and both of her parents built careers in the industry long before she took the stage herself.
Amy had already been building excitement for the production before Hall’s post appeared. Earlier in June, she shared a photo from the play and announced, “WE OPEN TONIGHT! Come see The Henry Clyde Canning Murder House at The Moving Arts in Atwater Village. Running through June 21st! Ticket link in bio 🏹💕🏡”
That enthusiasm seems to have carried over into the show’s run. Hall’s glowing review suggests Amy made quite an impression during the performance, especially considering Hall singled her out among the thriller’s four central characters. That’s not the sort of compliment Hall hands out every day.
For longtime DAYS viewers, there was something nice about seeing Hall and Hayes supporting the next generation of a family already connected to the soap world. Between the Shaughnessy connection, the strong notices, and Hall’s endorsement, Amy may have gained a few new fans this week. And if Hall is right, she might be gaining quite a few more before long.
