This star-studded tribute brings to life a dazzling and complex period in Liza Minnelli’s life, beginning in the 1970s, just after the tragic death of her mother, Judy Garland—as she faced many personal and professional challenges on her way to becoming a bona fide legend. During these years, Liza sought out extraordinary mentors: Kay Thompson, Fred Ebb, Charles Aznavour, Halston, and Bob Fosse. The insightful contributions of colleagues such as Michael Feinstein, Mia Farrow, Ben Vereen, Joel Grey, and the late Chita Rivera, as well as the star herself, illuminate the contradictions of Liza Minnelli: her privilege and struggle, her strength and vulnerability, her unreasonable expectations and her immense talent—the frictions that fueled her astonishing rise, her resilience, and her enduring status as one of the greatest and most original performers in entertainment history.
