The legendary Liza Minnelli, whose latest CD Confessions was released to universal acclaim, will soon return to the stage after a short absence. Minnelli, who had been sidelined with bronchial pneumonia, has made a compete recovery and appeared on TODAY on Wednesday, November 17 before she resumes her tour.

Minnelli has been touring throughout the year in a new show. An early stop in the tour had Howard Reich of the Chicago Tribune say, "To see Minnelli standing stage center and plunging into 'The World Goes 'Round' - an anthem of survival if ever there were one - was to appreciate anew the clenched-fist defiance of both the singer and the song. If any vocalists today approach the ferocity and drive of Minnelli's version of 'Maybe This Time,' they have yet to make themselves known."

The centerpiece of the program is Liza's spotlight on the material found on Confessions which was released by Decca in September. Minnelli will resume performing on Saturday, November 20 at the St. George Theatre in Staten Island, NY.

Additional appearances include:

November 22 - Dominican Republic- Santo Domingo National Theater
December 3 - Tucson, AZ - CentenniAl Hall
December 5 - San Francisco, CA - Davies Symphony Hall
January 12 - Indianapolis, IN - Hilbert Circle Theatre
