Documenting Liza Minnelli at her peak, this concert merges two November 24, 1979 performances at New Orleans’ Theatre of the Performing Arts. She delivers standards like “How Long Has This Been Going On?” and “The Man I Love,” the folk ballad “Come in From the Rain,” two songs from her Tony‑winning Broadway hit The Act, a New York medley culminating in “Theme from New York, New York,” and a Cabaret finale featuring “Cabaret,” “Harvest Moon,” and “The World Goes Round.”
