Liza Minnelli Sells Out Opening Night At The Beacon

Liza Minnelli's seven show run at The Beacon Theater in New York has been described as a bit soft, but opening night May 31 was a sellout when an unnamed angel reportedly went to the box office and scooped all the unsold tickets for a whopping $87,000. Those tickets were reportedly given to the police and firemen. Tickets for the shows are a steep $1,000-$500-$250-$125-$85-$50 with special V.I.P. ducats that included dinner with Minnelli. Even though there are plenty of tickets still available, print ads stopped about a week before opening night. Minnelli's performances are scheduled for May 31, June 1, 3-4, 6-8.
