A "Celebration of Life" for actor and social media influencer Bret Hanna-Shuford, who passed away January 3 at the age of 46 from a rare form of hemophagocytic lymphohistiocytosis and peripheral T-cell lymphoma, will be held January 24 in Florida.

The memorial service, which will also stream live, is being held at the St. Luke's United Methodist Church in Orlando beginning at 12:30 PM.

Those interested in viewing the stream can RSVP via EventBrite.

A graduate of Wagner College's theatre program, Mr. Hanna-Shuford dove headfirst into a musical theatre career in the early 2000s, performing on Broadway in Beauty and the Beast, Wicked, Chitty Chitty Bang Bang, The Little Mermaid, Amazing Grace, and Cirque Du Soleil’s Paramour, as well as touring the country in South Pacific and Dreamgirls. As a strong supporter of the Entertainment Community Fund, he performed in one-night-only Broadway benefit concerts of On the Twentieth Century, A Wonderful Life, and The Best Little Whorehouse in Texas. A lifelong Disney fan, he also performed on the Disney Cruise Line.

In 2007, Mr. Hanna-Shuford met Stephen Hanna, a principal dancer at the New York City Ballet who was set to make his Broadway debut in Billy Elliot. The pair soon became inseparable, marrying in 2011 and welcoming their son, Maverick, in 2022.
