‘Liza’ To Star At The Auditorium At The Echo Arena.

Following a triumphant West End debut earlier this year, Australian star Trevor Ashley is back! Channelling the extraordinary talents of the iconic Liza Minnelli in his critically acclaimed show LIZA (on an E), Ashley will star for one night only at The Auditorium Liverpool at the Echo Arena on Saturday 5th October as part of his first ever U.K. tour.

Controversial, wickedly funny yet also touchingly affectionate, LIZA (on an E), directed by Dean Bryant (Associate Director of Priscilla Queen of the Desert), is a must see evening that will have you laughing, crying and screaming for more, as the supremely talented Ashley not only entertains with Liza, plus there are special appearances by her mother, the legendary Judy Garland.

There are musicals that grace the stage with such spellbinding brilliance that the glitter and sheen never seems to rub off, never falters and certainly never lets the audience come away feeling anything other than wanting to dance all the way home and sing their favourite song with gladness in their heart. Then there are those that are so astonishing because they have made the crowd question everything they know about humanity and the darkness in people’s hearts and in a nation’s deeds. Perhaps it can be argued that only Cabaret manages to do both at the same time.
