Liza Minnelli is Coming to Broadway

3rd\SE Quadrant: The Approval Matrix




From Broadway.com

Broadway legend Liza Minnelli is headed back to the Palace Theatre, where both she and mother Judy Garland famously have enjoyed sold-out triumphs, for the holiday season. Liza's at the Palace...! will run from December 3 through December 14, featuring signature Minnelli songs as well as a dance-filled tribute to the 1940s nightclub act of her godmother, Kay Thompson.

...Liza's at the Palace...! will feature hits like "Cabaret," "Maybe This Time" and "New York, New York," which were all written for Minnelli by the Broadway song-writing team of John Kander and Fred Ebb. For the tribute to Thompson (best known for appearing in the film Funny Face and for writing the children's book Eloise at the Plaza), Minnelli will appear with a quartet of men (Cortés Alexander, Jim Caruso, Tiger Martina and Johnny Rodgers) and perform songs like "I Love a Violin," "Clap Yo' Hands," "Jubilee Time" and "Hello Hello."
