“Liza is a total entertainer, a show person the likes of which is hard to find these days. Liza’s talents have known no bounds, and her contribution to Broadway, film and even a hilarious stint on television’s ‘Arrested Development,’ make her so deserving of this, a glorious celebration of her 75 years on earth,” producer Daniel Nardicio said. “I’m thrilled to be able to do this for Liza, and for her friends and fans in a safe, socially distant way to say we all love you Liza—happy birthday darling!”
The event, which will stream on Stellar Video on Demand, will be co-produced by Minnelli’s longtime production manager and designer Matt Berman.
A portion of the ticket sales will be donated to The Actors Fund, the nationwide organization that provides social services and emergency financial assistance, health care and insurance counseling, housing, and secondary employment and training services to people in the entertainment industry.
