Liza Settles Into The Palace
“Liza’s At The Palaceā¦!,” which features a 12-piece orchestra led by conductor/drummer Michael Berkowitz and pianist/musical supervisor Billy Stritch, opens December 3 and runs through December 14, with shows on Tuesday, Wednesday, Friday and Saturday evenings plus a Sunday matinee.
Tickets go on sale October 26 through the venue box office and at Ticketmaster.com.
While ticket prices range from $55 to $125, Minnelli has requested that $25 front row seats also be made available daily at the box office by lottery.
The iconic singer/dancer/actress has promised to fill the evening’s performance with hits from her extensive catalog like “Cabaret,” “Maybe This Time,” and “New York New York,” as well as personal stories, anecdotes and reminiscences.
The show will also feature Minnelli’s salute to her godmother, the late Kay Thompson, a legendary performer, author (Eloise at the Plaza), music arranger and vocal coach for stars like Judy Garland, Frank Sinatra and Lena Horne.
Supported by a quartet of singers/dancers, the singer will perform Thompson hits, including “I Love a Violin,” “Clap Yo’ Hands,” “Jubilee Time” and “Hello Hello,” with the original vocal arrangements and new staging and choreography.
