The full two-hour performance of Liza Minnelli's 2009 Tony Award-winning concert, LIZA'S AT THE PALACE, is available only on this special collector's edition. This exciting midnight performance was recorded at the MGM Grand in Las Vegas on October 1, 2009.Act One features favorite songs by Ms. Minnelli, including Cabaret, Maybe This Time, What Makes a Man a Man, and My Own Best Friend. A first act highlight is Liza's special rendition of the Palace Medley, originally sung by her mother, Judy Garland, at the Palace Theatre in 1951. Liza adds a new personal musical introduction to the fond remembrance of famous vaudevillians. Act Two is very special tribute to Liza's godmother, Kay Thompson, a groundbreaking singer-dancer, songwriter, and vocal arranger/coach at the MGM studios in the 1940's.

Bonus:
• Heart-to-Heart Conversation Between Liza and Director/Choreographer Ron Lewis (1080i; 47:35): Taped on Oct. 2, 2009, the day after the performance, Minnelli and Lewis range widely over the history of the show and its development. Some of the points are matters of detail, for example, the decision to open Act II with "And the World Goes 'Round" (from Cabaret) to get the audience's energy back up before launching into the stories about Kay Thompson. Some are major, like the original inspiration for the show, which was a fluke; Minnelli was trying to interest a record company executive in an album of Thompson's songs, and when he seemed uninterested, she invented a fictitious show she was planning about her godmother as an excuse for playing him the songs.
