Liza Minnelli has cancelled her national tour due to health concerns.  According to Tulsa World, 'Officials with Minnelli's management said Minnelli's doctor requested she cancel a series of shows to focus on improving her health.' 

For the third night of this year's Cabaret Convention at Town Hall, the uber-enthusiastic Karen Mason hosted Life Is a Cabaret (Directed by Barry Kleinbort) in celebration of long time collaborators, composer John Kander and lyricist Fred Ebb. Introduced to each other by their mutual music publisher in 1962, the team's first Broadway show was 1965's Flora the Red Menace in which Liza Minnelli made her Broadway debut and with which the three began a long association. Their last together (Kander is alive and hopefully writing), was 2015's The Visit starring Chita Rivera, a production Ebb (who died in 2004) unfortunately didn't live to see. Kander and Ebb's best known musicals are Cabaret and Chicago, both of which seem to run forever on popular appeal, but they wrote many others, a wide selection of which were represented at Thursday night's show.

Neither rain, nor sleet could stop Liza Minnelli from reaching her scheduled appearance in Wilmington, NC, to perform alongside the North Carolina Symphony at Cape Fear Community College's new Humanities & Fine Arts Center last Friday.

BroadwayWorld has just learned that Liza Minnelli's upcoming appearances at the London Palladium and Sheffield City Hall have been cancelled. According to a statement from the star's rep, it's 'because of the promotor's failure to pay. Due to current economics and unusually high ticket prices, the producer was unable to secure the promised funds.   For months Liza has been preparing for these shows and she was devastated to hear of this unfortunate news.  She has always thought of London a second home and will miss seeing her friends and devoted fans.'

Liza Minnelli is back in the performance ring, out of rehab, and bent on survival, which she says is natural to her.
