If Liza Minnelli’s Jewelry Could Talk
https://www.nytimes.com/2024/08/27/style/liza-minnelli-jewelry.html?unlocked_article_code=1.GU4.mBWC.bQ6MWAhzO4ry"
The portraits in this piece are both wonderful and also a little sad. You can see both the vitality and classic Liza-ness in her eyes and expressions, but also the toll of a hard life that has aged her more than some of her contemporaries." As one of comments in the article stated,Liza is an American treasure.

Staged Right: The Creation of Evita The Musical Nov 6

Jay Lerner-Z said: "Thank you.
Tim Rice and Andrew Lloyd Webber's own political views are abhorrent to me, so I'm not sure I would trust their judgement on Eva Perón anyway. Whatever about politics, there is definitely a misogynist element to this show. Sure, it has a woman as the main character, but it shames and treats her like a prostitute using her body to climb the ladder. Seems a little unfair, seeing as how it was her husband who passed on an STD whic
