PREVIEW: Underbelly Festival, London: Liza’s Back (is broken)

Trevor Ashley as Liza Minnelli, makes a welcome return to London with Liza’s Back! (is broken).

Trevor’s five-star comic tribute to the iconic Liza Minnelli, is playing at the Underbelly Festival for 6 performances only from Tuesday, June 27 to Sunday, July 2.

There is no doubt about it; Liza Minnelli is a true Broadway legend. But her appearances on the musical stage have been few and far between. So what would happen if Liza decided to perform all the great Broadway roles she never got to play, in one special night?

Liza’s Back! (is broken) explores the parts that Minnelli should have played over the last forty years – those great leading lady roles from Grizabella to Norma Desmond, and all others in between. Ever wanted to see Liza tackle Wicked? Then this is the show for you!

Direct from rehab, and live with a 7-piece big band, don’t miss Liza singing Broadway’s greatest hits, including I Have Confidence, Memory, Send in the Clowns, Le Jazz Hot plus her own classics Maybe This Time, Cabaret and New York, New York!
