Liberace & Liza: A Tribute – Special NYE Performance

NYE performance price begins at $95.00* *Includes Drinks and Dessert, Doors open one hour prior to show. Join us this New Year’s Eve for a special 2:00 PM matinee or 7:30 PM evening performance of Liberace and Liza! Tickets to either NYE performance include dessert and drinks, served one hour before showtime. Celebrate the final day of the year with an unforgettable performance! This wildly improbable and completely irresistible show imagines just what might’ve happened if Liberace and Liza Minnelli ever shared the stage. They didn’t of course, but thanks to David Saffert and Jillian Snow, now they do! Equal parts tribute, improv and full-on fever dream, the show blends virtuosic piano playing, powerhouse vocals and more sequins than strictly necessary. The setlist swings from Cabaret and Gershwin to hilarious reimaginings of Britney Spears and Lady Gaga. The San Francisco Chronicle called it “surreal, yet oddly perfect”—a fitting description for this dazzling homage! David Saffert: Like Liberace, is a classically trained pianist from Wisconsin. He has worked sans sequins with the Guthrie Theater, Oregon Symphony, Oregon Ballet Theatre, Portland Opera, Portland Gay Men’s Chorus, Oregon Shakespeare Festival, Portland Center Stage and the Interlochen Arts Camp. He was recently featured in the book “All Classical Radio Artist Anthology: 40 Creatives of the Pacific Northwest” and was knighted by Portland’s Royal Rosarians. His debut solo piano album “Stopping Time” was a milestone and contains Liberace’s arrangement of “I Left my Heart in San Francisco.” Some of David’s favorite Liberace tribute highlights have been at 54 Below (NY), Feinstein’s at the Nikko (CA), Portland Center Stage, Schnitzer Concert Hall, and All Classical Radio (OR). He appeared as the featured guest on two Under the Vegas Sun television episodes filmed at the Liberace Mansion in Las Vegas and is currently advised by Bo Ayars; Liberace’s music director from 1973-1985. Jillian Snow: A powerhouse vocalist, sketch comedian, and unapologetic Liza Minnelli superfan who launched her career in NYC, cracking up crowds at the Laugh Factory, Gotham Comedy Club, and Comix NYC. Village Voice’s Michael Musto said, “This could open up Minnelli to a whole new audience!”—which Jillian took as permission to NEVER stop. Now based in Portland, Jillian blends comedy and cabaret into original work. She’s performed at favorite venues like 54 Below, Feinstein’s at the Nikko, and Portland Center Stage. With collaborator David Saffert, she co-created Liberace & Liza: Holiday at the Mansion, which sold out two seasons at Portland Center Stage. Whether singing show tunes or writing sketches, Jillian brings humor, heart, and respect for every artist she portrays. It all began in the shower with shampoo bottles as her audience. She still can’t believe she gets to share this joy with real live humans. BUY TICKETS
