I didn't see it reported on here or any of the other Broadway news sites, but it's official--Liza Minnelli at the Palace Theater for 9 concerts only from December 3-14!
I couldn't be more thrilled!

I think I'm going to have to shell out the bucks for this one. Those lotto seats will probably be incredibly difficult to score.
There won't be discount for this, correct? I think I'm seeing this three times at least...
Would Liza be eligible for a Special Theatrical Event Tony Award??? This is so exciting...

Anyone know when tickets go on sale?
The website says presale of 10/22 and regular sales 10/26.
Presale, meaning AmEx presale...?
No Student Rush? Oh well, Liza's worth it!
Wish I could see this! I love Liza!
Its going to be a Fanclub Presale, that requires a code.
YAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAY!!!!!!!!!!
How do you join the fanclub to receive the code?
HOLY SH*T!!! So excited for this. I will definetly be there at least three or four times! I have a feeling I'll be shelling out big bucks for this....but its so worth it!

Will there be discounts for this? I want to get my parents tickets for X-mas but can't afford $126 each and want to get them good seats.

I doubt there would be discounts to such a short run.
Just go ahead and splurge and buy them closing night tickets.

I highly doubt there will be discounts.
This may be your last chance to see one of the most historical performers in fine voice.
I'm going to be buying two tickets to take my grandmother - one Liza's biggest fans. Will not tell her what we're doing, just have her dress up, take her to dinner, then walk on up to the theater. Wish I could film her reaction!
My grandmother saw Judy at the Palace. So this should be exciting for her!
Would Liza be eligible for a Special Theatrical Event Tony Award??? This is so exciting...
I assume she will be, if the producers invite the voters. Which they ought to do, since her only competition for that award at this point is Cirque Dreams.
I doubt she'll be eligible since 10 performances in 2 weeks probably isn't enough time to get all the voters in there. And would the producers really want to give away that many tickets?
A few years ago Barbara Cook did one of her concerts at Lincoln Center on King Lear's off nights, and even though she did a total of 20+ performances, the show was deemed ineligible by the Tony Committee due to the small number of performances.
Anyone have any more info about the presale? How to join the fan club and get the code?

I don't know why, but this made me think of Arrested Development.
It would be nice if they added more dates.
The description given sounds like a Gala event she did at the Providence Performing Arts Center last year that I went to. If it's the same thing (which it sure sounds like with talk of Kay and the quartet), it's the most fabulous theatrical event I've ever witnessed and everyone needs to bust their ass to see it.
My mouth dropped when I saw it!! I CAN'T WAIT!!!
